Terms of Use

These terms set the rules for using Hudson Residents Directory. By continuing to use the site, you agree to them. Do not use the service if you do not agree.

1. Nature of the Service

Hudson Residents Directory is a private reference that describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections relevant to Hudson, Ohio. It does not host government records and is not connected with an office, court, or records custodian.


2. Permitted Use

Use this service only for lawful purposes. You may not use the service or material reached through it to:

  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm any person
  • Find someone protected by a restraining or protective order
  • Commit identity theft or fraud
  • Make FCRA-regulated decisions involving credit, employment, tenant screening, or insurance
  • Scrape, copy, or republish the site's content at scale
  • Interfere with the site's operation or security

3. No Consumer Reports

This service is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. ยง 1681 et seq. Neither material here nor a result returned by a linked search service is a consumer report, and none may be used to evaluate eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another FCRA-covered purpose.


4. Third-Party Links

Government portals and third-party services, including sponsored search tools, operate under their own terms and policies. We do not control their content, availability, charges, or data practices.


5. No Warranties

The service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind. We do not promise that its material is complete, accurate, or current, or that a linked portal will remain available or return correct results.


6. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from use of this service or a linked resource, including decisions based on records reached through it.


7. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold the site operators harmless from a claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your misuse of the service or breach of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

The site's original text, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. Linking to a page or quoting a brief attributed excerpt is allowed; republishing full pages or systematically copying material is not.


9. Updates to These Terms

We may revise these terms by publishing a new version here. Continued use after an update is acceptance.


10. Restricting Access

We may block or limit access, without notice and at our discretion, when a user violates these terms or misuses the service.


11. Governing Law

Ohio law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Ohio's Public Records Act, R.C. 149.43, governs access to records held by a public office, subject to its exemptions and other applicable law; it does not make this private reference a records custodian.


12. Severability

If a provision of these terms is unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay effective.
