1. Nature of the Service

Adrian Residents Directory is a privately operated reference. It identifies and links to public rolls, record indexes, and historic directory collections relevant to Adrian, Michigan. It does not host government records and is not affiliated with an office, court, or records custodian.

3. No Consumer Reporting Agency

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


4. External Services

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. Warranty Disclaimer

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 operate or return correct results.

10. Access Restrictions

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


11. Governing Law

Michigan law governs these terms, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public-records requests to Michigan public bodies are addressed by the Michigan Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.231 et seq., where that law applies; courts and restricted records use their own access rules.
