Terms of Use

These terms set the conditions for using Ramsey Residents Directory. By using the service, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

1. Nature of the Service

Ramsey Residents Directory is a privately run reference for public rolls, record indexes, and historical directory collections connected with Ramsey, Minnesota. It does not host government records and is not connected with a public office, court, or record custodian.


2. Acceptable Use

Use the site only for lawful purposes. You may not use it, or anything found 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)
  • Systematically scrape, copy, or republish the service's content
  • Disrupt the service's operation or security

3. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

This service is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. Nothing here or from a linked search tool is a consumer report, and it may not be used to assess eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another FCRA-covered purpose.


4. Links to Outside Sites

Government portals and outside services, including sponsored search tools, apply their own terms and privacy practices. We do not control their content, availability, cost, or handling of data.


5. No Warranties

The service is offered "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind. We do not promise that content is accurate, complete, or current, or that a linked portal will function or return a correct result.


6. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent the law allows, we are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from use of this site or any linked resource, including decisions made from records found through it.


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 original text, design, logo, and layout of this site are protected by copyright. Linking to any page and quoting brief excerpts with attribution is welcome; republishing full pages or systematically copying content is not.


9. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms by posting a new version here. Continued use after a change means acceptance.


10. Cutting Off Access

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


11. Governing Law

Minnesota law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Minnesota's Government Data Practices Act, Minn. Stat. §13.03, supplies the public-data access baseline for records held by government custodians; it does not make this private reference a custodian.


12. Severability

If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect.
