Terms of Use

These conditions govern access to Lane County Criminal History. Reading a page, using a search tool, or otherwise continuing on the site signals acceptance. Do not use the site if you disagree with these terms.

NO FCRA USE. This privately operated site has no government affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, tenant, insurance, or other decisions governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to identify criminal-record resources in Lane County, Oregon. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference site with no tie to a public office. It does not store official records, retrieve a person's file, perform an official criminal history check, or submit documents.

The content directs readers to Lane County Sheriff's Office, Oregon courts, Oregon State Police Criminal Justice Information Services, the Oregon Sex Offender Registry, and outside tools that may aid lawful personal research.

2. Rules for Using This Site

You agree that you will not:

  • Break any federal, state, or local law while using this site
  • Use information you find here to stalk, harass, or threaten anyone
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on content from this site
  • Try to break into our systems or gain access you are not supposed to have
  • Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against our pages
  • Do anything that slows the site down or blocks other people from using it

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

You may not use this site's information or a linked tool to harass, stalk, intimidate, threaten, or discriminate. Such conduct may also violate law. Oregon controls use of Oregon Sex Offender Registry information under ORS 163A.215 through 163A.225, including consequences for misuse. Registry data supports public safety, not vigilantism or unlawful discrimination.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. We do not generate background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports of any kind. Neither we nor our advertising partners provide services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, calculating insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use data from this site or any linked tool to:

  • Decide whether to hire or fire someone
  • Screen potential renters or housing applicants
  • Judge creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
  • Determine who qualifies for licenses, permits, or government programs
  • Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules

When law requires a check for one of those purposes, use Oregon State Police Criminal Justice Information Services or a screening provider that complies with the FCRA.

5. No Legal Advice

Site content is not legal advice. General descriptions of Lane County records cannot determine how a charge, judgment, warrant, or motion to set aside applies to one person. Seek advice from a licensed Oregon attorney.

6. No Warranties

Everything on this site is provided "as is." We do not guarantee that:

  • The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given time
  • The site will stay up and running without interruptions
  • Our pages are free of errors, bugs, or security holes
  • Results from our partner search tools will be thorough or accurate

Criminal records change as charges are filed, dismissed, amended, or set aside. Updates may lag, and gaps can occur. No site content is an official statement by a court, sheriff, or other government agency.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to Lane County Sheriff's Office, Oregon court portals, state agencies, legal-aid organizations, or outside search services. Those destinations are beyond our control. We are not responsible for their content, data practices, prices, or availability. Review their terms before proceeding.

8. Intellectual Property

Lane County Criminal History or its content partners own the site's text, graphics, logos, and code. Written permission is required before copying, modifying, distributing, or creating derivative material.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for damage arising from site use, including reliance on information found here or through a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, actions, or demands caused by your site use or violation of these terms, including related legal fees and costs.

11. Governing Law

Oregon law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to use of the site must be brought in a court located in Oregon.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms. A revision takes effect when the updated text is posted on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

We may restrict or terminate access at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms continue in force. The affected provision will be adjusted only as far as needed to make it enforceable.

15. Questions

Questions about these conditions may be directed through the Contact page.
