Terms of Use

These conditions govern use of Perry County Criminal History. Visiting a page, reading its content, or running a search signals agreement with every term below. Anyone who does not accept them must stop using the site.

NO FCRA USE. This privately run website has no affiliation with a local, state, or federal agency. 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). It helps visitors locate record resources in Perry County, Tennessee, but is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference site with no connection to a public office. It does not store official records, retrieve them, conduct official checks, or file documents for a visitor.

Its role is to identify Perry County record custodians, including the sheriff, criminal courts, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, and Tennessee Sex Offender Registry, and to link to outside research tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

As a condition of access, you must 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 found here or through a linked tool may not be used to harass, stalk, intimidate, threaten, or discriminate against anyone. Such conduct may be criminal. Tennessee places special limits on misuse of Tennessee Sex Offender Registry data, which exists for public safety awareness rather than vigilantism, blacklisting, or discrimination.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

Perry County Criminal History is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. It does not generate credit reports, background checks, or any other consumer report. Neither the site nor an advertising partner provides a service designed for applicant screening, rental review, insurance pricing, or credit judgments. Data here or in linked tools cannot 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

When a lawful purpose requires that kind of report, obtain an official check from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation or an FCRA-compliant screening company.

5. No Legal Advice

Nothing here is legal advice. General information about Perry County records cannot determine how a charge, conviction, warrant, or expungement rule applies to one situation. Seek advice from a licensed Tennessee attorney.

6. No Warranties

All site content is offered "as is." No guarantee is made 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 as charges are filed, dismissed, restricted, or expunged. Gaps cannot always be avoided. Content here is never an official statement by a Perry County court, sheriff, or other public agency.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links lead to sheriff pages, court portals, Tennessee agencies, legal-aid organizations, and outside search services. Following one leaves this platform. The destination controls its content, data practices, charges, and availability, so review its own terms before use.

8. Intellectual Property

All text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Perry County Criminal History or its content partners. The material may not be copied, distributed, modified, or adapted without prior written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site is not liable for damages arising from its use, including reliance on information found here or through a linked service.

10. Indemnification

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

11. Governing Law

Tennessee law governs these terms, and a dispute connected with use of the site must be filed in Tennessee. Government-record access is separately controlled by the Tennessee Public Records Act, T.C.A. §§10-7-501 through 10-7-507, and applicable criminal-history dissemination law.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may change. A revision becomes effective when the updated text is posted here.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be limited or ended at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, all others remain effective. The affected language will be adjusted only as far as needed to make it enforceable.

15. Questions

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