Room to grow

  • Updating the Terms of Use to prohibit automated access

What to ask for

Three low-cost steps that have worked in other counties to close gaps like this one:

1. Adding clear robots.txt rules that disallow automated scrapers

2. Updating the Terms of Use to prohibit automated access

3. Implementing a notification system that alerts residents when their records are accessed
