9. Term Updates
We may revise these terms when the service, legal environment, or operational practices change. Posting the revised terms here is notice of the change. Continued use after posting means you accept the revision.

We may suspend or limit access where we reasonably believe a visitor is violating these terms, creating a security concern, or using the service in a way that risks harm or liability.
11. North Carolina Law
These terms are governed by North Carolina law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. N.C.G.S. Chapter 132 governs access to many government-held public records, while record-specific statutes can restrict vital records, protected addresses, court files, and other sensitive material. Those statutes do not make this private service a custodian.
12. Severability
If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect to the fullest extent allowed by law.
13. Questions
Questions about these terms can be sent through the contact page. Questions about an official record should be sent to the Town, county, state, library, or court custodian that holds it.
