1. Nature of This Website

Those sources include the Forsyth County Register of Deeds, Forsyth County Clerk of Superior Court, Forsyth County Tax Administration, and other public custodians. We do not host government records and have no affiliation with any agency, court, or records office.

You may not rely on them to decide eligibility for credit, employment, housing, insurance, or another purpose regulated by the FCRA.
4. External Services and Links
Links may lead to Winston-Salem and Forsyth County government portals, North Carolina agencies, or third-party services, including sponsored search tools. Each outside service controls its own policies and terms. We accept no responsibility for an external site's content, access, charges, or handling of data.

That law does not make Winston-Salem People Search a public agency or impose a government custodian's duties on this private site.
