Terms of Use

These conditions govern access to and use of Limestone County Criminal History. Visiting a page, reading its content, or using a search tool means the visitor accepts the terms below. Anyone who does not agree should stop using the site.

NO FCRA USE. Limestone County Criminal History is privately owned, is not affiliated with a government agency, and is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or other FCRA-regulated decisions.

1. What This Website Is

Limestone County Criminal History is a private reference resource with no connection to Limestone County, the State of Alabama, a court, a sheriff, or another public office. It neither stores official criminal records nor performs official criminal history checks or files government forms.

The pages identify public record routes such as the Limestone County Sheriff's Office, Circuit Clerk, Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, and Alabama Law Enforcement Agency Sex Offender Registry. They may also connect visitors to outside search tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

A visitor agrees not to:

  • Use the site in violation of federal, Alabama, or local law
  • Stalk, threaten, intimidate, or harass a person with information found here
  • Use site content for a credit, employment, housing, insurance, or other FCRA-regulated decision
  • Attempt unauthorized entry into any system or account
  • Deploy a bot, scraper, or other automated collection tool against the pages
  • Interfere with site operation or another visitor's access

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

Information from this site or a linked service may not be used to harass, stalk, threaten, intimidate, or unlawfully discriminate against anyone. Alabama registry data warrants special care. Ala. Code § 15-20A-8 requires a warning against using registry information to injure, harass, or commit a crime against a registrant, family member, or employer. The registry serves lawful safety awareness, not vigilantism.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

Limestone County Criminal History does not create credit reports, background reports, or consumer reports and is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. Its content and any linked search tool may not be used to:

  • Make an employment decision
  • Evaluate a housing or rental application
  • Set credit terms or insurance eligibility
  • Determine eligibility for a license, permit, or government benefit
  • Carry out any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

A legally required official criminal history process must be obtained through the proper Alabama agency or another provider authorized for that purpose, not through this site.

5. No Legal Advice

Site content is general information, not legal advice. Alabama's public-writings law in Ala. Code § 36-12-40, criminal-history review law in § 41-9-643, and expungement law in Title 15, Chapter 27 have facts and exceptions that may affect a specific matter. A licensed Alabama attorney should address individual legal questions.

6. No Warranties

The site and its content are provided "as is." No warranty is made that:

  • Information will always be accurate, complete, or current
  • Every page or service will remain available without interruption
  • The site will be free of errors, defects, or security weaknesses
  • A partner search result will be complete or correctly matched

Charges, dispositions, custody status, registry entries, access rules, fees, and office details can change. Only the Limestone County or Alabama office that holds a record can confirm its present official status.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to county offices, Alabama agencies, courts, legal resources, or outside search providers. Those services control their own content, availability, prices, and data practices. Limestone County Criminal History is not responsible for an external site's operation. Review the destination's terms before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Unless another owner is identified, site text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Limestone County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, modified, distributed, or used to create derivative material without prior written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Limestone County Criminal History is not liable for loss or damage arising from site use, inability to use the site, reliance on its content, or use of a linked service.

10. Indemnification

A visitor agrees to defend and hold the site harmless from claims, actions, demands, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from that visitor's use of the site or violation of these terms.

11. Governing Law

Alabama law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to use of Limestone County Criminal History must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in the State of Alabama.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A revised version becomes effective when posted on this page, and continued use means the visitor accepts the current text.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be restricted or ended at any time and without notice, including when use threatens site operation or violates these terms.

14. Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be limited only as much as needed for lawful enforcement.

15. Questions

Questions about these terms may be submitted through the Contact page.
