Terms of Use

Use of West Lafayette Residents Directory is subject to these terms. If you do not accept them, discontinue use.

1. Nature of the Service

West Lafayette Residents Directory is an independent reference to public rolls, indexes, and historical collections concerning West Lafayette, Indiana. It neither hosts official records nor represents a government office, court, or custodian.

  • Scrape, copy, or republish the site's content at scale
  • Interfere with the site's operation or security

3. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

This site is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. ยง 1681 et seq.). Nothing here, and nothing any linked search tool returns, is a consumer report, and none of it may be used to judge eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.


4. External Services

Government portals, sponsored tools, and other outside services set their own terms and privacy practices. Their content, access, fees, and data handling remain their responsibility.


5. No Warranties

The site is provided "as is" and "as available," with no warranties of any kind. We do not warrant that anything on the site is accurate, complete, or current, or that any linked portal will work or return correct results.

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.

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. Revisions

A revised version may be posted here. Continued use after publication signals 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.

Access to public records held by West Lafayette and Tippecanoe County custodians is governed where applicable by the Indiana Access to Public Records Act, IC 5-14-3; this private service is not a public agency under that Act.
