Terms of Use

These conditions govern every visit, search, and use of content on this website. Accessing any part of the site means you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not continue to use the website.

NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website is not connected with Platte County, Nebraska, or any government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its role is limited to helping readers find official criminal-record resources in Platte County and Nebraska. It is neither a private investigation service nor a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference site with no government affiliation. We do not store official criminal files, perform official checks, retrieve records, or submit documents for visitors.

We identify the official custodians of Platte County records, including the Sheriff, Nebraska trial courts, Nebraska State Patrol Criminal Identification Division, and Nebraska Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also connect to independently operated research tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

By using the site, you agree not to:

  • Use site content for any unlawful purpose
  • Harass, stalk, threaten, or intimidate another person
  • Use the material for employment, housing, credit, or insurance decisions
  • Attempt unauthorized access to systems or information
  • Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools
  • Interfere with site performance or another visitor's access

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

Site content and linked results may not be used to stalk, threaten, intimidate, harass, or discriminate against anyone. Misuse can violate the law. The Nebraska Sex Offender Registry specifically warns that threats, retaliation, and vandalism are illegal. Registry information exists for public safety and community awareness, not vigilantism or discriminatory action.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not create credit reports, background checks, or other consumer reports. The same is true of services offered through our advertising relationships. Information from the site or a linked tool must not be used to:

  • Make an employment decision
  • Evaluate a renter or housing application
  • Assess credit or insurance eligibility
  • Determine access to a license, permit, or public benefit
  • Carry out any other FCRA-regulated purpose

A lawful regulated check must come from the appropriate official channel or a screening provider that complies with the FCRA.

5. No Legal Advice

Site material is general information, not legal advice. It cannot determine how a Platte County charge, warrant, conviction, set-aside, or other rule applies to a particular person. Ask a licensed Nebraska attorney for advice about a specific matter.

6. No Warranties

All content and functions are provided "as is." We make no promise that:

  • Content is always complete, accurate, or current
  • The website will operate without interruption
  • Every page is free from errors or security flaws
  • An outside search provider will return complete or correct results

Criminal records change when charges, rulings, set-asides, sealing actions, and corrections occur. Gaps or delays are possible. No site content is an official statement from the Sheriff, a court, or another government office.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links can lead to government pages, court systems, legal-aid organizations, and third-party search services that we do not operate. We are not responsible for an outside site's content, availability, prices, data practices, or results. Review its terms before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Platte County Criminal History or its content partners owns the site's text, graphics, logos, and code. Written permission is required to copy, distribute, alter, or create derivative material from that content.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for harm arising from use of this website, its content, or a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims, demands, or proceedings caused by your use of the site or breach of these terms, including related legal costs.

11. Governing Law

Nebraska law governs these terms. Any proceeding tied to use of the site must be brought in a court located in Nebraska. Public access to government records remains governed separately by the Nebraska Public Records Act, Neb. Rev. Stat. §§84-712 through 84-712.09, and criminal-history dissemination by Neb. Rev. Stat. §29-3523.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms. A revised version takes effect when it is posted on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

We may restrict or end access to the site at any time and without advance notice.

14. Severability

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

15. Questions

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