NO FCRA USE. This privately owned website has no connection to a government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service intended for credit, employment, insurance, housing, or another use regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to help visitors locate official criminal-record resources for Lincoln County and Colorado. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site, independently operated and unaffiliated with government. It neither stores official criminal records nor retrieves records, performs official checks, or files documents on a visitor's behalf.
The site points toward the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office, Lincoln County Combined Court, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, and the Colorado Sex Offender Registry, along with third-party tools that may assist general 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
Information from this site or a linked tool must not be used to stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or discriminate against anyone. Colorado places special limits on misuse of Colorado Sex Offender Registry data, and unlawful conduct toward a registrant can result in criminal penalties. Registry information supports public safety awareness, not vigilantism or 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
Any check for a regulated purpose must come from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation or a screening provider that complies with the FCRA.
5. No Legal Advice
Site material is general information, not legal advice. Descriptions of a Lincoln County charge, conviction, warrant, adult sealing rule, or juvenile expungement process cannot resolve an individual matter. Legal advice must come from a qualified Colorado attorney.
6. No Warranties
All material and functions are offered "as is," without a promise 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 all the time - charges are filed, dismissed, sealed, and expunged. We try to keep up, but gaps are unavoidable. Nothing on this site should be treated as an official statement from a court, sheriff, or government agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
We link to sheriff's office sites, court portals, state agency pages, legal aid organizations, and outside search services across this site. Clicking one of those links moves you off our platform and onto one we have no control over. We are not responsible for their content, how they handle data, what they charge, or whether their site stays online. Check their terms before using them.
8. Intellectual Property
Lincoln County Criminal History or its content partners own the text, graphics, logos, and code on this site. Written permission is required to copy, distribute, modify, or build on that material.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for damages that come from using this site - including decisions made based on information found here or through any linked service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to hold us harmless from any claim, legal action, or demand that stems from how you used this site or from breaking these terms. That includes covering our legal fees and related costs.
11. Governing Law
Colorado law governs these terms, and a dispute arising from use of the site must be filed in a Colorado court. Official criminal-justice record access remains subject to the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act, C.R.S. §§ 24-72-301 through 24-72-309, including C.R.S. § 24-72-304. Other public records may fall under CORA, C.R.S. §§ 24-72-201 through 24-72-206. Those statutes govern official custodians and do not make this private site a records office.
12. Changes to These Terms
These terms may be revised. Updated conditions become effective when they are posted on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be limited or ended at any time, with or without advance notice.
14. Severability
If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be narrowed only as far as needed to make it enforceable.
