Cedar Falls Residents Directory is a private reference resource. It describes and links to public rolls, record indexes, and directory collections concerning people who live or once lived in Cedar Falls, Iowa. The site does not host government records and is not connected with Cedar Falls, Black Hawk County, any court, or any records custodian.

- Make FCRA-regulated decisions (credit, employment, tenant, insurance)
- Scrape, copy, or republish the site's content at scale

3. No Consumer Reports
Cedar Falls Residents Directory is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. ยง 1681 et seq. Neither the site's material nor results supplied by a linked search tool are consumer reports. They may not be used to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another purpose regulated by the FCRA.
4. External Resources
Linked government portals, sponsored search tools, and other third-party services operate under their own policies and terms. Their availability, content, prices, and data practices are outside our control.
5. Disclaimer of Warranties
The site is offered "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. We make no promise that its material is complete, accurate, or current. We also do not guarantee that a linked portal will remain available or produce a correct result.
6. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent the law allows, we are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from use of this site or any linked resource, including decisions made from records found through it.

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.

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.
11. Governing Law
Iowa law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Public access to Iowa government records is governed in relevant part by the Iowa Open Records Law, Iowa Code chapter 22. Iowa Code chapter 715D addresses consumer data protections for covered entities and excludes publicly available information from its definition of personal data. Those statutes do not change the acceptable-use limits in these terms.
12. Severability
If any part of these terms proves unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
