Terms of use
By using State Business Entity Search you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
What the site is
State Business Entity Search is a private website. It is not a government site and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by any Secretary of State or state agency. It offers a free lookup of business name data that states publish, plus fees and naming rules read from official pages.
No reservation, no advice
A search result does not reserve, register, clear or protect a name. Nothing on the site is legal, tax or financial advice. Decisions about a filing are yours, and the state alone decides whether it accepts a name.
Accuracy
Results come from data published by each state and are shown with the data date. Published data can be late, incomplete or wrong, and fees and rules change. The site is provided as is, without warranties of any kind, and you use it at your own risk. Confirm every fact with the state before you file or pay.
Colorado asks sites that use its data to carry its own notice, which appears beside every Colorado result and in the disclaimer.
Fair use of the search
The search is for people looking up names by hand. Do not run automated or bulk queries against it, copy its results in bulk, or use it to build lists for marketing. Access may be limited or blocked to keep the site working for others.
Links and offers
Links to state websites and to a domain registrar lead to sites this site does not control. Prices, terms and availability there are set by those sites. The site runs no ads today. If advertising or paid links are added, the privacy policy and the disclaimer will be updated first.
Limit of liability
To the extent the law allows, State Business Entity Search is not liable for any loss that follows from relying on the site, including a rejected filing, a lost fee or a dispute over a name.
Changes
These terms may change. The date under the heading shows the latest version. Questions go to hello@statebusinessentitysearch.com.
