Terms of Use

These conditions govern every visit, search, and use of the site's content. Access means you accept them. Do not continue using the service if you disagree with any condition.

NO FCRA USE. This privately run website is not affiliated with Pacific County, Washington, or any other government. The site and its advertising partners do not provide a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. This is a records-location resource, not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This private reference site operates independently of government. It neither stores official criminal records nor retrieves records, conducts official checks, or files requests and court papers for users.

Its function is to identify Pacific County custodians and Washington sources, including the sheriff, Jail Services, court clerks, Washington State Patrol, and Washington State Sex Offender Public Registry, while also presenting optional outside search tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

Use is conditioned on an agreement not to:

  • Use automated scrapers, bots, or similar collection tools
  • Attempt unauthorized entry into a system or account
  • Threaten, harass, or stalk any person with information found here
  • Use the content for a credit, employment, insurance, or housing decision
  • Disrupt performance or interfere with another visitor's access
  • Violate federal, Washington, or local law

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

Information from the site or a linked tool must not be used to intimidate, stalk, threaten, harass, or discriminate against anyone. Registry information warrants particular care. Washington disclosure law authorizes the Washington State Sex Offender Public Registry for public protection and does not authorize retaliation, vigilantism, or unlawful discrimination against a listed person.

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 official background checks. The same is true of the services offered here by advertising partners. Data from the site or a linked tool may not be used to:

  • Make a credit or lending decision
  • Evaluate a job applicant or worker
  • Assess a renter or housing application
  • Set insurance terms or determine a regulated benefit
  • Carry out any other FCRA-regulated purpose

A legally regulated check must be obtained through an authorized official channel or a screening provider that complies with the FCRA and other applicable law.

5. No Legal Advice

General information about Pacific County records is not legal advice. A Washington lawyer should address how a charge, warrant, conviction, vacation, or sealing rule affects a specific matter.

6. No Warranties

All content and services are supplied "as is." There is no warranty that:

  • An outside search response is accurate or complete
  • Every page is free from bugs, errors, or security defects
  • Access will always be available without interruption
  • Any stated record information remains complete and current

Charges, custody, dispositions, and access restrictions change. No page should be treated as an official statement by a court, the sheriff, or another agency. Verify the current record with its custodian.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

A link may lead to a government office, court portal, legal resource, or private service that we do not control. The destination is responsible for its content, fees, availability, security, and data practices. Review its own terms before proceeding.

8. Intellectual Property

Unless stated otherwise, the text, code, graphics, and logos belong to Pacific County Criminal History or its content partners. Copying, adapting, or distributing them without prior written permission is prohibited.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for losses or damages arising from use of the site, its information, or an outside linked service.

10. Indemnification

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

11. Governing Law

Washington law governs these terms, including applicable provisions of the Washington Consumer Protection Act. A dispute concerning use of the site must be brought in an appropriate Washington court.

12. Changes to These Terms

Revised terms may be posted at any time and become effective upon publication on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be suspended or ended at any time, with or without advance notice.

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be narrowed only as needed to make it enforceable.

15. Questions

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