NO FCRA USE. This is a privately operated website with no government affiliation. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to identify Orange County and New York criminal-record resources. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This private reference site is independent of every government office. It does not store official criminal records, conduct official checks, retrieve protected files, or submit papers for a visitor.
Its pages identify the Orange County Sheriff, County Clerk, criminal courts, New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services, DOCCS, and New York State Sex Offender Registry. They also may connect readers with outside research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
By using the site, you agree not to:
- Interfere with service or prevent another visitor's access
- Use any content to threaten, stalk, or harass a person
- Use automated scraping, bots, or similar collection tools
- Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
- Rely on site content for an FCRA-regulated decision
- Violate federal, New York, or local law
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
Harassment, stalking, threats, intimidation, or unlawful discrimination based on this site or a linked tool is forbidden and may be criminal. New York Correction Law §168-q restricts misuse of New York State Sex Offender Registry information. Registry access supports lawful public-safety awareness; it never authorizes vigilantism or retaliation against a registrant or family.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not produce consumer reports, credit reports, or screening products. Advertising partners are not presented as providers for regulated screening. Site or linked-tool data must not be used to:
- Set an insurance premium or judge creditworthiness
- Make a hiring, firing, or promotion decision
- Evaluate a renter or housing applicant
- Determine eligibility for a license, permit, or benefit where regulated
- Support any other use controlled by the FCRA
A person who needs a regulated report must use an authorized, FCRA-compliant provider and follow all applicable law. This site cannot supply it.
5. No Legal Advice
Site content is general information, not legal advice. Only a licensed New York attorney can assess how an Orange County charge, conviction, warrant, or record-sealing rule applies to a particular set of facts.
6. No Warranties
All material is offered "as is." No guarantee is made that:
- A partner's results will be complete or correct
- The site will remain continuously available
- Every page will be free of bugs, mistakes, or security flaws
- Information will always be complete, accurate, and current
Criminal records can change when a charge is filed, resolved, corrected, or sealed. Gaps and delays can occur. Nothing here is an official statement by the Orange County Sheriff, a court, DCJS, or any government body.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links may lead to county offices, court portals, New York agencies, legal resources, or outside search services. We do not control a destination's availability, prices, privacy choices, terms, or content. Review its conditions before using it.
8. Intellectual Property
Orange County Criminal History or its content partners own the site's text, graphics, logos, and code. Written permission is required before copying, distributing, adapting, or building on that material.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim liability for harm arising from site use, including reliance on information obtained here or through a linked service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to protect and hold us harmless from claims or demands caused by your site use or breach of these terms, including related legal fees and costs.
11. Governing Law
New York law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to use of the site must be brought in a court located in New York.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these conditions. A new version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be restricted or ended at any time, with or 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 far as needed to make it enforceable.
