Terms of Use
Effective date: July 1, 2026 · Last updated: July 2026
⚠️ FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY — NOT LEGAL ADVICE
StateLawClock provides legal information, not legal advice. Nothing on this Site creates an attorney-client relationship, and nothing here is a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney in your state. Laws change; exceptions apply to individual facts; deadlines can be shorter than they appear. If a legal deadline may affect you, consult a licensed attorney before relying on anything you read here.
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of statelawclock.online (the "Site") operated by StateLawClock ("we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Site you agree to these Terms in full. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
1. Nature of the Site — Informational Purposes Only
StateLawClock is a legal information reference website. Every page presents general information about U.S. statutes of limitations sourced from official state legislature websites. The content is intended solely to help you understand what the law generally says — it is not tailored to your individual situation, facts, or jurisdiction.
StateLawClock does not provide legal advice. Specifically:
- No attorney-client relationship is formed by your use of this Site.
- No information on this Site should be treated as a professional legal opinion about your case.
- Statutes of limitations have exceptions, tolling rules, and notice requirements that can shorten or extend the deadline shown — whether any exception applies to you is a legal judgment only an attorney can make.
- Laws change. We verify content against official statutes and update regularly, but we cannot guarantee that every entry reflects the current law at the moment you read it.
If any legal deadline may affect a real claim or decision, consult a licensed attorney in your state immediately. Time lost cannot be recovered once a deadline passes.
2. Accuracy and Verification
We make a genuine effort to ensure accuracy. Each deadline shown on this Site is researched from and linked to the official state legislature or government source, verified through multiple independent checks, and updated on a regular schedule. Each entry displays its last-verified date and a direct citation to the applicable statute.
Despite these efforts, we make no warranty — express or implied — that the information is complete, accurate, current, or suitable for any particular purpose. You acknowledge that:
- Legislation may be amended, repealed, or reinterpreted after our last verification date.
- Court decisions may modify how a statute is applied in practice.
- Local ordinances and procedural rules may impose additional requirements not covered here.
- Individual facts and circumstances always affect which rules apply.
We encourage you to click the statute link on each page and read the primary source yourself before drawing any conclusions.
3. Acceptable Use
You may use the Site for lawful, personal, and non-commercial reference purposes. You agree not to:
- Scrape, crawl, or systematically download Site content in bulk without our written permission (standard search-engine indexing is permitted);
- Reproduce or republish substantial portions of Site content on another website without attribution and a link back to the original page;
- Use the Site to provide legal advice or professional legal services to third parties and represent the information as your own professional work;
- Attempt to interfere with, disrupt, or overload the Site's infrastructure;
- Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law.
4. Intellectual Property
The text, design, layout, and compilation of content on this Site are protected by copyright and belong to StateLawClock or its licensors. Individual statutes quoted from official government sources are in the public domain.
You may quote brief excerpts (a single statute citation or deadline) for personal reference, educational, or journalistic purposes provided you attribute the source and link to the relevant page on statelawclock.online. For any other reproduction or commercial use, contact us first.
5. Third-Party Links
The Site links to official government and legislature websites as primary sources and may link to secondary sources. These links are provided for your convenience and verification purposes. We do not endorse, control, or take responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or accuracy of any third-party website. Clicking an external link takes you off StateLawClock entirely.
6. Advertising
The Site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Advertising content is selected and served by Google and its partners — we do not control which ads appear. The presence of an advertisement does not imply our endorsement of the advertiser's products or services. For information about advertising cookies, see our Privacy Policy.
7. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components. We do not warrant that any information on the Site is complete, current, or legally correct as applied to your situation.
8. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, STATELAWCLOCK AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — INCLUDING LOSS OF A LEGAL CLAIM, MISSED FILING DEADLINE, LOST REVENUE, OR ANY OTHER LOSS — ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE OR ITS CONTENT, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site shall not exceed ten U.S. dollars ($10.00). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain liability limitations; in such jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless StateLawClock and its operators from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any applicable law or third-party right.
10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.
11. Modifications to the Site and Terms
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without notice. We may also update these Terms at any time. The updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Site after any change constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you disagree with the updated Terms, your only remedy is to stop using the Site.
12. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms otherwise remain in full force and effect.
