NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no affiliation with a local, Texas, or federal government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provide a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The material routes readers to Cochran County and Texas criminal-record resources. We are neither a consumer reporting agency nor a private investigation firm.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site independent of all government offices. It neither stores official criminal records nor retrieves them, performs official checks, or submits documents for a visitor.
Its purpose is to identify relevant custodians and resources, including the Cochran County Sheriff, the combined county and district clerk, Texas Department of Public Safety, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also connect visitors with outside research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
By using the site, you agree not to:
- Use bots, scrapers, or other automated means against site pages
- Threaten, stalk, or harass a person with information found here
- Interfere with service or prevent access by another visitor
- Use site content for lending, employment, housing, or insurance decisions
- Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
- Violate a federal, Texas, or local law through use of the site
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
No one may use information from this website or a linked tool to stalk, intimidate, threaten, harass, or discriminate against another person. Such conduct may also violate the law. The rule is especially important for the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 62 provides public data for safety awareness, not retaliation or vigilante conduct, and other criminal and civil laws still apply to misuse.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not make background checks, credit reports, or any other consumer report. Our advertising partners do not provide FCRA screening through this site. You may not use site or linked-tool data to:
- Set insurance terms or judge creditworthiness
- Make employment decisions
- Decide eligibility for a permit, license, or public benefit
- Evaluate a renter or housing application
- Carry out any other activity regulated by the FCRA
A legally permissible official check should be obtained from Texas Department of Public Safety or a provider that complies with the FCRA for the intended use.
5. No Legal Advice
Website content is not legal advice. General information about Cochran County records cannot determine how a charge, warrant, conviction, expunction, or nondisclosure rule applies to one case. Seek advice from a lawyer licensed in Texas.
6. No Warranties
All site content and services are supplied "as is." We make no promise that:
- A partner search result will be complete or correct
- Every item is accurate, current, or complete
- The website will always be available without interruption
- Pages will contain no defect, bug, or security weakness
Criminal records can change when charges are filed or dismissed, or when an eligible record is expunged or placed under nondisclosure. Delays and gaps can occur. Nothing published here is an official statement by the Cochran County Sheriff, a court, Texas DPS, or another agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links can lead to the sheriff, courts, Texas agencies, legal-aid organizations, or outside search services. Those sites are outside our control. We bear no responsibility for their availability, content, fees, or data practices. Review the destination's terms before using it.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, code, graphics, and logos belong to Cochran County Criminal History or its content partners. Written permission is required to copy, alter, distribute, or create derivative work from that material.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim liability for damage arising from use of the website, its information, or a linked service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from a demand, claim, or legal action arising from your site use or violation of these terms, including related costs and legal fees.
11. Governing Law
Texas law governs these terms. A legal dispute arising from use of the site must be brought in a court located in Texas.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these terms. A revision becomes effective when the changed text is posted here.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be restricted or ended at any time, without advance notice and for any reason.
14. Severability
If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, all other provisions remain effective. The affected language will be changed only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
15. Questions
Questions about these terms may be submitted through the Contact page.
