Terms of Use

These conditions govern use of Blaine County Criminal History. Reading its content, visiting a page, or submitting a query through a search tool signifies acceptance of all terms below. Anyone who does not agree with them must stop using the site.

NO FCRA USE. Blaine County Criminal History is privately operated and has no affiliation with a local, Nebraska, or federal government agency. This site and its advertising partners do not provide services for credit decisions, employment screening, tenant evaluation, insurance underwriting, or another purpose governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The site is a reference for locating Blaine County and Nebraska criminal-record resources. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference website with no government connection. We do not maintain official records, obtain records for visitors, perform formal background checks, or submit documents on anyone's behalf.

The content directs readers to custodians of Blaine County records, including the sheriff, County Court, District Court, the Nebraska State Patrol Criminal Identification Division, and the Nebraska Sex Offender Registry. Access to public-agency records is governed by the Nebraska Public Records Statutes, Neb. Rev. Stat. §§84-712 through 84-712.09. Public dissemination of specified criminal-history information is limited by Neb. Rev. Stat. §29-3523. The site may also connect readers to outside research tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

As a condition of access, you must not:

  • Interfere with site performance or prevent access by other visitors
  • Deploy a scraper, bot, or other automated process against the pages
  • Attempt to enter systems or data without authorization
  • Use site content for employment, housing, lending, or insurance decisions
  • Use information to threaten, stalk, or harass another person
  • Violate any applicable local, Nebraska, or federal law

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

You may not use information found here or through a linked service to discriminate against, intimidate, stalk, threaten, or harass anyone. Such conduct may also violate criminal law. The restriction is especially important for Nebraska Sex Offender Registry information. Registry data is published for safety awareness, not vigilantism, housing discrimination, employment blacklisting, or retaliation against a registrant.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not create consumer reports, credit reports, or background checks. Our advertising partners and this site do not provide a service intended to evaluate rental applications, job applicants, insurance rates, or creditworthiness. You agree that neither site data nor a linked tool will be used to:

  • Carry out any other activity regulated by the FCRA
  • Determine eligibility for a permit, license, or government benefit
  • Assess credit or establish an insurance premium
  • Evaluate a renter or applicant for housing
  • Make a decision to hire or dismiss a person

A check for an FCRA-regulated purpose must be obtained through an appropriate FCRA-compliant provider or the authorized official channel, as applicable. This site cannot supply it.

5. No Legal Advice

The information provided is not legal advice. General descriptions of Blaine County criminal records cannot resolve how a charge, conviction, warrant, or Nebraska set-aside law affects a specific person. Consult an attorney licensed in Nebraska for legal guidance.

6. No Warranties

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

  • An outside search provider's results will be accurate or complete
  • The pages contain no defect, error, or security weakness
  • Access to the site will always be continuous
  • Every item of information is complete, correct, or current

Criminal records may change when charges are filed or dismissed, a court grants a set aside, or information becomes restricted under Nebraska law. Updates and omissions are unavoidable. No statement here is an official representation by a court, sheriff, or other government office.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

The site links to court systems, sheriff pages, Nebraska agencies, legal-help organizations, and independent search services. Following a link opens a service beyond our control. We are not responsible for its availability, content, fees, or data practices. Review the destination's terms before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, code, graphics, and logos on this site are owned by Blaine County Criminal History or its content partners. Written permission is required before copying, distributing, adapting, or creating derivative material from that content.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for damages arising from site use, including reliance on information obtained here or through a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold us harmless against a demand, claim, or legal action caused by your use of the site or a breach of these terms, including related costs and legal fees.

11. Governing Law

Nebraska law governs these terms. A legal dispute arising from use of the site must be brought in a court located within the State of Nebraska.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these conditions at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be restricted or terminated at any time, without prior notice and for any reason.

14. Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be modified only to the extent needed for enforcement.

15. Questions

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