Terms of Use

These terms govern access to Martinez Residents Directory, a private reference for records and collections in Martinez and Contra Costa County. By using the pages, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please stop using the reference.

1. What This Reference Is

Martinez Residents Directory is privately operated. It describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and historical collections that can show who lived or may be connected to Martinez, California. It does not host government records and is not affiliated with the City of Martinez, Contra Costa County, any California agency, court, library, or records custodian.


2. Rules for Using These Pages

Use the reference only for lawful purposes. You may not use it or anything reached through it to:

  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or harm another person.
  • Locate someone protected by a restraining or protective order.
  • Commit identity theft, fraud, or another unlawful act.
  • Make a decision regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions.
  • Scrape, copy, or republish the pages at scale.
  • Interfere with the operation, security, or availability of the reference.

3. No Consumer Reporting Agency

This reference is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. section 1681 et seq. Nothing on these pages, and nothing returned by a linked search provider, is a consumer report. It may not be used to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another purpose covered by the FCRA.


4. Links to Other Services

County and state portals, libraries, archives, and sponsored search providers set their own terms and privacy policies. Martinez Residents Directory is not responsible for an outside service’s content, availability, pricing, or handling of submitted information.


5. No Warranties

The reference is supplied “as is” and “as available.” We make no warranty that a page, fact, fee, year, link, or outside portal is complete, accurate, current, uninterrupted, or suitable for a particular purpose.


6. Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or similar damages arising from use of these pages or a linked resource, including a decision made from information found through them.


7. Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold harmless the operators from a claim, demand, loss, or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that results from misuse of the reference or a violation of these terms.


8. Intellectual Property

The original writing, layout, design, and logo belong to the site operators and are protected by copyright. Linking to a page and quoting a short attributed excerpt is welcome. Republishing an entire page or copying the material systematically is not permitted.


9. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms by posting a replacement version here. If you continue using the reference after the revision is posted, that continued use is acceptance of the updated terms.


10. Restricting Access

We may block or limit access for a person who violates these terms, abuses the reference, or threatens its operation. We may take that action without advance notice when appropriate.


11. Governing Law

California law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public-record references in the pages include the California Public Records Act, Government Code sections 7920.000 et seq.; court records follow court access rules. California’s Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, governs applicable privacy rights for information held by a covered business.


12. Severability

If a court finds one part of these terms unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect.
