Terms of Use

These terms apply when you use Blacksburg Residents Directory. By using the site, you agree to them; do not use the site if you do not agree.

1. Nature of This Website

Blacksburg Residents Directory is a privately operated guide to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections relevant to Blacksburg, Virginia. It describes and links to sources that may document a person or address at a point in time. The site does not host government records and is not affiliated with any office, court, or records custodian.


2. Acceptable Use

Use this site only for lawful purposes. You may not use it, or material found through it, to:

  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm another person
  • Find a person protected by a restraining or protective order
  • Carry out identity theft or fraud
  • Make an FCRA-regulated credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decision
  • Scrape, copy, or republish site content at scale
  • Disrupt the operation or security of the site

3. FCRA Status

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


4. External Websites

Government portals and third-party services, including sponsored search tools, operate under their own terms and policies. We do not control or take responsibility for their content, availability, prices, or data practices.


5. No Warranties

This site is made available "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind. We do not promise that site information is accurate, complete, or current, or that a linked portal will function or produce correct results.


6. Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from use of this site or a linked resource, including a decision based on a record reached through the site.


7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold the site operators harmless from a claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, resulting from your misuse of this site or breach of these terms.

The site's original text, design, logo, and layout are protected by copyright. You may link to pages and quote short excerpts with attribution, but may not republish whole pages or systematically copy the content.


9. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms by posting an updated version here. Your continued use after a revision constitutes acceptance.


10. Restricting Access

At our discretion and without notice, we may block or limit access for a user who violates these terms or misuses the site.


11. Governing Law

Virginia law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Access to public records held by Virginia public bodies is addressed separately by the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, Va. Code § 2.2-3704; that statute does not make this private site a government records custodian.


12. Severability

If a provision of these terms is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective.
