Terms of Use

These conditions govern every visit to Cabell County Criminal History. Opening a page, reading its material, or using a search tool signifies agreement with all terms below. A person who does not accept them must stop using the website. The restrictions apply to information reached through a linked provider as well as material published directly on these pages.

NO FCRA USE. Cabell County Criminal History is privately operated and has no government affiliation. This website and its advertising partners do not provide a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The resource points readers to criminal-record offices in Cabell County and West Virginia. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This private reference site is independent of every government office. It does not store official criminal records, submit filings, retrieve certified documents, or conduct an official background check.

Its material identifies Cabell County and West Virginia custodians, including court clerks, the Cabell County Sheriff, WVDCR, the West Virginia State Police Criminal Identification Bureau, and the West Virginia Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also connect to independently operated research tools.

Official access is governed by laws such as the West Virginia Freedom of Information Act, while W. Va. Code ยง15-2-24 limits dissemination of Criminal Identification Bureau histories. Those laws do not convert this private site into a records custodian.

2. Rules for Using This Site

Use of the website is conditioned on these restrictions. A visitor must not:

  • Use the service in violation of federal, West Virginia, or local law
  • Threaten, stalk, or harass a person with information found here
  • Rely on site material for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions
  • Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
  • Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools against the pages
  • Interfere with site performance or another visitor's access

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

No material from this website or a linked tool may be used to harass, stalk, intimidate, threaten, or unlawfully discriminate against a person. West Virginia Sex Offender Registry information carries a specific warning against threats, intimidation, and harassment. Registry publication supports lawful safety awareness; it does not authorize vigilantism, blacklisting, or discrimination.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and produce no consumer report, credit report, or official background check. Neither this website nor its advertising partners offers a product intended to screen applicants, assess rental requests, set insurance rates, or judge creditworthiness. Information from these pages or a linked tool must not be used to:

  • Make an employment decision
  • Evaluate a renter or housing applicant
  • Set insurance terms or determine creditworthiness
  • Decide eligibility for a license, permit, or government benefit
  • Carry out any other FCRA-regulated purpose

A lawful regulated check must be obtained through an appropriate FCRA-compliant provider or the official West Virginia State Police and IdentoGO channel when that government process applies.

5. No Legal Advice

The website provides general information, not legal advice. It cannot determine how a Cabell County charge, conviction, warrant, or expungement law affects one person. Individual advice should come from a lawyer licensed in West Virginia.

6. No Warranties

All material and services are offered "as is." No warranty is made that:

  • Information will always be complete, accurate, or current
  • Every page will remain available without interruption
  • The website will contain no defect, error, or security weakness
  • A search partner's results will be complete or correct

A record can change after a charge, dismissal, correction, sealing order, or expungement. Delays and gaps can occur. Only the responsible Cabell County or West Virginia agency can issue an official statement or record.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links lead to government offices, court portals, legal resources, state agencies, and outside search services. The destination is independently controlled. We are not responsible for its content, availability, price, privacy practices, or other terms, which should be reviewed before use.

8. Intellectual Property

Cabell County Criminal History or its content partners own the site's text, graphics, logos, and code. Copying, adapting, distributing, or creating derivative material requires prior written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for loss or damage arising from use of this website, its information, or any linked service.

10. Indemnification

A visitor agrees to defend and hold us harmless from claims, demands, and proceedings caused by that visitor's use of the site or breach of these terms, including related legal costs.

11. Governing Law

West Virginia law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to website use must be brought in a court located in West Virginia.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A revision takes effect when the updated text is posted on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

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

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be limited only as much as necessary to make it enforceable.

15. Questions

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