    <p>DeedScout is a <strong>research layer</strong>, not a county clerk, auctioneer, or title company. Every dataset shows a status badge, last refresh time (when known), source URL, and verification reminder.</p>
  </div>
  <h2 style="font-family:'Cormorant Garamond',serif;margin-top:32px;">Status definitions</h2>
  <ul class="ds-prose" style="list-style:none;padding:0;">
    <li style="margin-bottom:12px;"><span class="ds-status ds-status-live">Live</span> Pulled from an official/public source within the last 72 hours.</li>
    <li style="margin-bottom:12px;"><span class="ds-status ds-status-cached">Cached</span> Real source data, but not refreshed in the last 72 hours.</li>
    <li style="margin-bottom:12px;"><span class="ds-status ds-status-sample">Sample</span> Demo data only. Do not rely on it for bidding or outreach.</li>
    <li style="margin-bottom:12px;"><span class="ds-status ds-status-blocked">Blocked</span> Source requires login, payment, reCAPTCHA, or manual lookup.</li>
    <li style="margin-bottom:12px;"><span class="ds-status ds-status-broken">Broken</span> Scraper or upstream source is currently failing.</li>
    <li style="margin-bottom:12px;"><span class="ds-status ds-status-soon">Coming Soon</span> UI exists; data pipeline not connected yet.</li>
  </ul>
  <div class="ds-prose" style="margin-top:24px;">
    <p><strong>Tax deed sales:</strong> When our auction scraper succeeds, sale dates are labeled Live or Cached. When scrapers fail (e.g. RealAuction 403), we show Broken and link to official auction sites — we do not invent dates.</p>
    <p><strong>Permits:</strong> West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Jupiter, and St. Lucie County use live Tyler EnerGov scrapes. Palm Beach unincorporated (4 records), Royal Palm Beach, and Boynton Beach are <strong>Sample</strong> until bulk access exists.</p>
    <p><strong>Parcels:</strong> Palm Beach parcel lookup uses county GIS/appraiser sources; verify on official PA site before decisions.</p>
