Terms of Use

These terms apply to use of Mechanicsville Residents Directory. By using it, you accept these terms. Do not use the site if you do not agree.

1. Purpose of This Directory

Mechanicsville Residents Directory is a privately operated reference. It describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections relevant to Mechanicsville, Virginia. It does not host government records and is not affiliated with a Hanover County office, court, or other custodian.


2. Lawful Use Rules

Use the site lawfully. You may not use it, or material obtained through it, to:

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

3. No Consumer Reporting Role

This directory is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. Neither its content nor results from linked search tools are consumer reports. They may not be used to determine eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another purpose regulated by the FCRA.


4. Third-Party Resources

Government portals and third-party services, including sponsored search tools, set their own terms and privacy practices. We do not control their content, availability, pricing, or data handling.


5. No Warranty

The site is supplied "as is" and "as available" without warranties. We do not promise that its content is accurate, complete, or current, or that any linked portal will operate or return correct results.


6. Liability Limits

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


7. Indemnification

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


8. Intellectual Property

The site’s original text, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. Linking to a page and quoting a brief excerpt with attribution is permitted. Republishing full pages or systematically copying content is not.


9. Changes to Terms

We may revise these terms by posting an updated version here. Continued use after a revision is acceptance.


10. Access Restrictions

We may restrict or block access, without notice, for a user who violates these terms or misuses the site.


11. Governing Law

Virginia law governs these terms, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The Virginia Freedom of Information Act controls access to qualifying public records held by government custodians; this private directory neither replaces that statute nor controls a custodian’s response.


12. Severability

If any part of these terms proves unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
