Terms of Use

These terms apply to use of Quincy Residents Directory. By using the service, you agree to them. Do not use the service if you do not agree.

1. Nature of This Service

Quincy Residents Directory is a privately operated reference. It describes and links to public rolls, indexes, and directory collections concerning Quincy, Massachusetts. It does not host government records and is not connected with a records custodian, court, or public office.


2. Permitted Use

Use the service only for lawful purposes. You must not use it, or information reached 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, including credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions
  • Scrape, copy, or republish content at scale
  • Disrupt the service or its security

3. No Consumer-Report Use

This service is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. Neither its content nor a result from a linked tool is a consumer report. None may be used to determine eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another FCRA-covered purpose.


4. Third-Party Resources

Government portals and outside services, including sponsored-search providers, have their own policies and terms. We do not control their availability, content, prices, or data practices.


5. No Warranty

The service is offered “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind. We do not promise that content is complete, accurate, or current, or that a linked portal will operate or provide 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 service or a linked resource, including decisions based on records reached through it.


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 violation of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

The original writing, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. Linking to a page and quoting a brief attributed excerpt is permitted; wholesale republication or systematic copying is not.


9. Term Updates

We may revise these terms by posting a new version here. Continued use after a revision constitutes acceptance.


10. Access Restrictions

We may restrict or block access, without notice, when a user violates these terms or abuses the service.


11. Governing Law

Massachusetts law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Massachusetts Public Records Law, M.G.L. c. 66, § 10, governs requests to public custodians for existing records; it does not make this private service a custodian or override record-specific restrictions.


12. Severability

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