Terms of Service
These terms govern your subscription to First Call Feed (the "Service"), operated by
Compton Consulting Incorporated, an Ohio corporation ("Provider"), 1929
Baltimore-Reynoldsburg Rd, Unit #593, Reynoldsburg, OH 43068. By subscribing you
agree to them.
1. What the Service is
First Call Feed provides a subscription to compilations of public-record data
obtained from government licensing authorities — state contractor-licensing boards,
state home-care licensing agencies, and equivalent bodies. Provider is a **data
source**, like the boards themselves: it collects, normalizes, and delivers records
those authorities already publish.
**Provider does not generate leads, does not act as a marketing agency, and does not
contact anyone listed in the data.** Every record links to the issuing authority's own
verification page, and that authority is the source of truth.
2. Your outreach is your responsibility
You are **solely responsible for complying with every law that governs how you contact
anyone in the data.** That includes, without limitation:
- the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and its rules on calls and texts;
- the Telemarketing Sales Rule and federal and state Do-Not-Call registries;
- CAN-SPAM and applicable state email-marketing laws;
- any state telemarketing, solicitation, or public-records commercial-use statute that applies to you or to the state whose data you use; and
- the licensing, insurance-marketing, or advertising rules of your profession.
Before contacting any record you will do what those laws require of you — including
scrubbing against applicable Do-Not-Call registries, obtaining any consent the law
requires, honoring opt-outs, and keeping your own records of compliance. Provider
performs no outreach on your behalf and provides no scrubbing, consent, or compliance
service.
3. Permitted use
The data is licensed to you for your own internal business prospecting only. You
may use it to identify and contact potential customers for your own products or
services, subject to Section 2.
4. Prohibited uses
You will not:
- resell, redistribute, sublicense, publish, or share the data, in whole or in part, with any third party, or incorporate it into any product or list offered to others;
- use the data as a consumer report, or for any purpose covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including any decision about eligibility for credit, insurance underwriting, employment, or housing (see Section 5);
- use the data to make any decision that unlawfully discriminates against any person or class;
- use the data for any unlawful purpose, or in violation of Section 2; or
- scrape, bulk-export, or automate access beyond the delivery your subscription provides.
5. Not a consumer reporting agency
Provider is not a consumer reporting agency, and the data is **not a consumer
report or an investigative consumer report** under the Fair Credit Reporting Act or any
comparable state law. The data consists of business licensing records. You will not
use it for any FCRA-covered eligibility purpose, and you acknowledge that Provider
assembles and sells it solely as a compilation of public business records for
business-to-business prospecting.
6. Ownership, license, and no resale
The data originates from government public records. Provider claims rights in its
compilation, normalization, and delivery, not in the underlying public facts.
Provider grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the
data as permitted here for the term of your subscription. All rights not granted are
reserved. On termination you will stop using the data. **Resale and redistribution are
prohibited.**
7. Data source and accuracy
The data is compiled from third-party government sources. Provider normalizes and
delivers it and makes commercially reasonable efforts to keep it current, but **does not
warrant the accuracy, completeness, or current status** of any underlying record — the
issuing authority controls that, and you can verify any record through the linked
authority page.
This does not limit any separate freshness or delivery guarantee Provider expressly
offers, which concerns when a record is delivered rather than the correctness of the
authority's own data.
THE DATA IS PROVIDED "AS IS," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
LAW.
8. Suppression and opt-out
Provider will honor lawful suppression requests and any **state-mandated opt-out
scrubs** applicable to the data. If Provider notifies you that a record must be
suppressed, or a person asks you to stop contacting them, you will **stop contacting
that record**.
9. Certification and indemnification
By subscribing you certify that you will use the data lawfully and only as permitted
here. You will indemnify and hold Provider harmless from any claim, loss, or
liability arising out of your use of the data or your outreach, including any violation
of Section 2.
10. Subscription, billing, and cancellation
Subscriptions run on the term shown at checkout — monthly or annual — and **renew
automatically** at the then-current rate until cancelled. Fees are billed through
Stripe; Provider does not store your card details. You may cancel at any time, and
cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid term.
First month refunded if it isn't useful. If the Service does not work for you,
tell Provider within 30 days of your first payment and Provider will refund that
payment in full. This applies once, to the first payment on a subscription, on a
monthly or an annual term alike. Provider may change these
terms or the fees on notice, and a change to fees applies from your next renewal.
11. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, Provider's total liability arising out of or relating to
the Service is limited to the fees you paid in the twelve months preceding the claim,
and Provider is **not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or
punitive damages, or for lost profits or lost business**, even if advised of the
possibility.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its
conflict-of-laws rules, and the state and federal courts located in **Franklin County,
Ohio** have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute.
13. General
If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest remain in force. These terms, together
with the order you placed at checkout, are the entire agreement between you and
Provider regarding the Service, and supersede any prior discussion. Provider's failure
to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
