NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no connection to a local, Nebraska, or federal government body. Neither the website nor its advertising partners provides a service intended for credit decisions, employment screening, insurance underwriting, tenant screening, or another purpose regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its role is to help readers locate criminal-record resources in Lincoln County, Nebraska. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site that operates independently of government. It does not keep official records, retrieve government files, perform official background checks, or submit documents for a user.
The website identifies Lincoln County record custodians, including the sheriff, the local criminal courts, the Nebraska State Patrol Criminal Identification Division, and the Nebraska Sex Offender Registry. Public access remains governed by laws such as the Nebraska Public Records Act, Neb. Rev. Stat. §84-712, while §29-3523 limits public dissemination of specified criminal-history information. Some pages also connect readers with outside research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
As a condition of access, you agree not to:
- Use the website in violation of federal, Nebraska, or local law
- Harass, stalk, threaten, or intimidate anyone with information obtained here
- Rely on website content for hiring, housing, credit, or insurance decisions
- Attempt unauthorized entry into any website system or restricted area
- Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools against these pages
- Disrupt performance or interfere with another person's access
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
You may not use information from this website or a linked tool to stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate, or discriminate against another person. Such conduct may also violate the law. This rule is especially important for Nebraska Sex Offender Registry information. Neb. Rev. Stat. §29-4009 governs public registry information, and the official registry warns against retaliation toward registrants, their families, or associated people. Public registry access supports safety awareness. It does not authorize vigilante conduct, blacklisting, or discrimination.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
This website is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and does not create credit reports, background checks, or other consumer reports. Its advertising partners likewise do not offer services through this website for job screening, rental review, insurance pricing, or credit decisions. You agree that neither website data nor a linked tool will be used to:
- Make a hiring or termination decision
- Evaluate a renter, tenant, or housing applicant
- Set an insurance premium or assess creditworthiness
- Determine eligibility for a license, permit, or government benefit
- Carry out any other activity regulated by the FCRA
For a background check used in any regulated setting, use the Nebraska State Patrol Criminal Identification Division or a screening provider that complies with the FCRA.
5. No Legal Advice
Website content is general information, not legal advice. Although it describes criminal-record processes in Lincoln County, it cannot determine how a charge, conviction, warrant, or Nebraska set-aside rule applies to a particular case. Seek advice from a Nebraska-licensed attorney.
6. No Warranties
All website content is supplied "as is." No promise is made that:
- Information will always be complete, accurate, or current
- The website will operate continuously without interruption
- Every page will remain free from errors, defects, or security weaknesses
- An outside search tool will return complete or correct results
Criminal records can change when charges are filed or dismissed, access is sealed, or a Nebraska court grants a set-aside. Updates may lag, and gaps cannot always be avoided. Website content is not an official statement from the Lincoln County courts, sheriff, Nebraska State Patrol, or another government body.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links may lead to a sheriff, court portal, Nebraska agency, legal-aid organization, or outside search service. Following a link opens a service beyond this website's control. We do not accept responsibility for that service's content, data practices, fees, or availability. Review its own terms before proceeding.
8. Intellectual Property
Lincoln County Criminal History or its content partners own the website's text, graphics, logos, and code. Copying, distribution, modification, or creation of derivative material requires prior written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for damages arising from website use, including reliance on information found here or through a linked service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to hold us harmless against claims, demands, or legal actions arising from your use of the website or breach of these terms, including associated costs and legal fees.
11. Governing Law
Nebraska law governs these terms. Any dispute related to website use must be brought in a court located in Nebraska.
12. Changes to These Terms
These terms may be revised at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be limited or ended at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.
14. Severability
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be adjusted only as far as needed to make it enforceable.
15. Questions
Questions about these terms may be submitted through the Contact page.
