1. Nature of This Reference

Topeka Residents Directory is a private reference to public rolls, record indexes, and historical collections concerning Topeka, Kansas. It does not host government records and is not connected with Shawnee County, a Kansas agency, any court, library, or records custodian.

2. Permitted Use

Use the site only for lawful purposes. You may not use it, or anything found 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 (credit, employment, tenant, insurance)
  • 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 Resources

Government portals, sponsored search providers, and other outside services apply their own terms and policies. Their content, availability, charges, and data handling remain outside our control.

5. Information Without Warranties

This reference is offered "as is" and "as available" without warranties. Accuracy, completeness, and timeliness are not guaranteed, nor is the operation or correctness of any linked portal.

6. Liability Limits

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages tied to use of this reference, an external resource, or a decision based on located records.

7. Indemnification

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.

8. Intellectual Property

Copyright protects the original wording, design, logo, and layout. You may link to pages or quote short attributed excerpts, but may not republish full pages or systematically copy the material.

9. Updates to These Terms

A revised version may be posted here from time to time. Use after publication of a revision indicates acceptance.

10. Restricting Access

Access may be blocked or limited, without notice, when a user abuses the service or breaches these terms.

11. Governing Law

Kansas law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public-record access referenced here is governed in part by the Kansas Open Records Act, K.S.A. 45-215 through 45-223, but that law does not make this private reference a records custodian.

12. Severability

If one provision cannot be enforced, all remaining provisions continue in effect.
