Terms of Use

These terms set the conditions for using Lorton Residents Directory. By using the service, you accept them. Do not use the service if you do not accept these terms.

1. Nature of the Service

Lorton Residents Directory is a privately operated reference that describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections relevant to Lorton, Virginia. It does not host government records and has no affiliation with Fairfax County, Virginia, a court, library, or records custodian.


2. Acceptable Use

Use the service only for lawful purposes. You may not use it or material found through it to:

  • Stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate, or harm a person
  • Locate a person protected by a court order or confidentiality program
  • Commit fraud, identity theft, or another unlawful act
  • Make FCRA-regulated decisions involving credit, employment, tenant screening, insurance, or housing
  • Scrape, copy, or republish content at scale
  • Interfere with security or operation of the service

3. No Consumer Reports

This service is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. §1681 et seq. Nothing on it, and no result from a linked tool, is a consumer report. Information may not be used to assess eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-regulated purpose.


4. Outside Websites

County portals, state services, library resources, and sponsored search providers have independent terms and privacy practices. We do not control their data, fees, availability, or content.


5. No Warranties

The service is provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no warranty that content is complete, current, accurate, uninterrupted, or suitable for a particular purpose, and no warranty that a linked record system will return a result.


6. Liability Limits

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or other damages arising from use of this service or a linked resource, including actions taken in reliance on a record.


7. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold the service operators harmless from claims, damages, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from your misuse of the service or breach of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

The original text, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. You may link to a page and quote a brief attributed excerpt, but may not republish full pages or systematically copy the service content.


9. Updates to Terms

We may revise these terms by posting an updated version here. Continued use after the posting indicates acceptance of the revised terms.


10. Restricting Access

We may suspend or limit access for a user who violates these terms, abuses the service, or creates a security risk. Notice is not required where law permits.


11. Virginia Law

Virginia law governs these terms, without applying conflict-of-law rules. Virginia Freedom of Information Act procedures, Va. Code §2.2-3700 et seq., govern eligible requests to Virginia public bodies; they do not turn this private reference into a records custodian or alter court confidentiality rules.


12. Severability

If a provision is unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the necessary extent and the remaining terms will remain effective.
