Terms of Use

These conditions apply whenever a visitor reads, browses, or uses a search feature on Haskell County Criminal History. Using the website means accepting every term below. A visitor who does not agree should stop using the service.

NO FCRA USE. Haskell County Criminal History is privately operated and is not tied to any government body. Neither this website nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. We are not a consumer reporting agency or private investigation firm.

1. What This Website Is

This is an independent reference website. It does not keep official criminal records, perform official background checks, retrieve government files, or submit documents for a visitor.

Its pages route readers to the Haskell County sheriff and court clerks, the Texas Department of Public Safety Crime Records Division, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also connect to third-party search services.

2. Rules for Using This Site

By using the website, you agree not to:

  • Violate federal, Texas, or local law
  • Harass, threaten, stalk, or harm another person
  • Use any content for a credit, job, housing, or insurance decision
  • Enter protected systems or data without permission
  • Scrape pages or run bots and automated collection tools
  • Disrupt service or prevent another visitor from using it

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

Information found here or through a linked tool must not be used to intimidate, stalk, harass, threaten, or discriminate. The rule is especially important for Texas Public Sex Offender Registry data. Chapter 62 information exists for community safety, not vigilantism, retaliation, blacklisting, or unlawful exclusion. Misuse may violate Texas law.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We do not prepare consumer reports, credit files, or background reports within the meaning of the FCRA. Visitors must not use this website or a linked tool to:

  • Make a hiring or termination choice
  • Evaluate a renter or housing applicant
  • Set insurance terms or judge creditworthiness
  • Determine access to a license, benefit, permit, or government program
  • Carry out any other decision regulated by the FCRA

A lawful official check must be obtained through Texas DPS or another provider authorized for the particular purpose.

5. No Legal Advice

The material is general information, not legal advice. It cannot determine how a Haskell County warrant, charge, conviction, expunction, or nondisclosure rule applies to one person. Consult a Texas-licensed lawyer for advice about a specific matter.

6. No Warranties

The website and all content are offered "as is." We do not warrant that:

  • Every statement is complete, current, or free from error
  • Service will be continuous or uninterrupted
  • Pages and systems contain no security flaw or bug
  • A partner search will return a complete or accurate match

Government files change as cases are filed, resolved, corrected, restricted, or expunged. Only the originating Haskell County or Texas office can issue an official statement or certified document.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to official sheriff, court, Texas agency, registry, and outside search pages. We do not control those sites, their availability, content, prices, data practices, or terms. A visitor should review the destination's own conditions before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Haskell County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, changed, distributed, or adapted without written authorization.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the broadest extent Texas law permits, we are not responsible for losses arising from use of this website, reliance on its content, or use of a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims, proceedings, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your misuse of the site or violation of these terms.

11. Governing Law

Texas law governs these terms, including applicable provisions of the Texas Public Information Act, Government Code Chapter 552, and the criminal-history dissemination rules in Government Code Chapter 411. Any dispute tied to website use must be brought in a court with jurisdiction in Texas.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these conditions. A posted revision applies when it appears on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be limited or ended at any time, without advance notice, including when misuse or disruption is suspected.

14. Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue. The affected language is adjusted only as far as needed to make it enforceable.

15. Questions

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