Terms of Use

These terms govern use of Happy Valley Residents Directory. Using the service means accepting them. Do not use the service if you do not agree to these terms.

1. Private Reference Service

Happy Valley Residents Directory is privately operated. It describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections relevant to Happy Valley, Oregon. It neither hosts government records nor operates for a public office, court, or records custodian.


2. Lawful Use

Use this service only lawfully. You may not use it, or material accessed through it, to:

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

3. No Consumer-Reporting Function

Happy Valley Residents Directory is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. Material on this service and results from linked search tools are not consumer reports. They cannot be used to determine eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-regulated purpose.


4. Outside Services

Government portals, sponsored search tools, and other outside services have their own terms and policies. Their content, availability, charges, and data practices remain their responsibility.


5. No Warranty

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties. We do not promise that information is accurate, complete, or current, or that an outside portal will operate or return a correct result.


6. Liability Limits

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special loss arising from this service or a linked resource, including a decision based on a referenced record.


7. Indemnity

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


8. Intellectual Property

The original text, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. Links to pages and brief attributed quotations are welcome, but full-page republication or systematic copying is not.


9. Term Updates

These terms may be updated by posting a new version here. Continued use after a change constitutes acceptance.


10. Restricted Access

We may block or restrict a user who violates these terms or abuses the service, at our discretion and without notice.


11. Oregon Law

Oregon law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public-records references recognize Oregon Public Records Law, ORS chapter 192, while access, exemptions, fees, and review remain with the relevant public custodian. The Oregon Consumer Privacy Act applies where its terms cover the relevant organization and circumstance; it does not transfer government-record responsibilities to this private service.


12. Severability

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