Terms of Use

These conditions govern access to and use of this website. Browsing a page, reading its content, or submitting a partner search means you accept them. Do not continue using the site if you disagree.

NO FCRA USE. This privately owned website has no government affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other screening governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Carroll County and Kentucky record links are offered for general reference. We are neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This is an independent private reference site. It does not store government criminal records, retrieve an official file, conduct an official check, or submit paperwork for a user.

Its purpose is to identify custodians of Carroll County records, including the sheriff, Circuit Court Clerk, Kentucky State Police, and Kentucky Sex Offender Registry, while also providing access to separately operated search tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

Use is conditioned on the following restrictions. You must not:

  • Use the service in violation of federal, Kentucky, or local law
  • Harass, stalk, intimidate, or threaten a person with information found here
  • Rely on site content for an FCRA-regulated decision
  • Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
  • Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools
  • Interfere with the site's speed, security, or availability

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

Information obtained here or through a linked tool must never be used to stalk, threaten, harass, intimidate, or unlawfully discriminate. Kentucky law places an express misuse warning on data from the Kentucky Sex Offender Registry. KRS 17.580 permits use for public protection, but harassment or criminal acts against a registrant can lead to prosecution.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not create consumer, credit, or background reports. Our partners are not presented as services for regulated screening. Data from this site or a linked tool may not be used 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

A regulated background check must come through a legally appropriate, FCRA-compliant provider or authorized official process.

5. No Legal Advice

The material is not legal advice and cannot determine how a Carroll County charge, warrant, conviction, or expungement rule affects a person. Seek advice from a Kentucky-licensed attorney.

6. No Warranties

All services and content are offered "as is." We make no 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

Charges, dispositions, custody status, and public access can change. Gaps or delays are possible, and only the originating court or agency can issue an official statement.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

External links may lead to official agencies, courts, legal resources, and commercial search providers. Those services control their own content, privacy practices, fees, and availability. Review their terms before use.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Carroll County Criminal History or its content partners. Copying, redistribution, modification, or derivative use requires prior written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the greatest extent permitted by law, we disclaim liability for loss or damage arising from this site, its content, or any linked service.

10. Indemnification

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

11. Governing Law

Kentucky law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to use of the site must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Kentucky.

12. Changes to These Terms

Revised terms take effect when posted on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be restricted or ended at any time and without advance notice.

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms stay effective. The affected clause will be narrowed only as needed.
