NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no government affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners offers a service for credit, employment, insurance, housing, or another use governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to identify public criminal-record sources in Potter County and Texas. It is neither a consumer reporting agency nor a private investigation business.
1. What This Website Is
Potter County Criminal History is a private reference site, independent of every government office. It stores no official criminal record and cannot retrieve a record, conduct an official background check, or submit a filing.
The pages direct readers to the Potter County Sheriff's Records Department, the appropriate criminal court clerk, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also connect to outside research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
Use of the website is conditioned on lawful, responsible conduct. A visitor must not:
- Use site content for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another FCRA-regulated decision
- Stalk, threaten, or harass another person with information found here
- Violate a local, Texas, or federal law
- Attempt unauthorized access to the site's systems
- Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools against the pages
- Interfere with site speed, access, or another visitor's use
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
Information obtained here or through a linked tool may not be used to stalk, threaten, intimidate, harass, or discriminate. That ban is especially important for data from the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 62 provides registry access for public safety, not retaliation, vigilantism, or unlawful discrimination. Misuse can have legal consequences.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. It produces no consumer report, credit report, or official background check. The same is true of the services offered here by advertising partners. Content from this site or a linked tool must not be used to:
- Make an employment decision
- Evaluate a rental or housing application
- Set insurance terms or assess creditworthiness
- Determine access to a permit, license, or government benefit
- Carry out any other FCRA-regulated purpose
A lawful regulated check must come through an authorized, FCRA-compliant channel. The Texas Department of Public Safety can explain its official criminal-history products, but users remain responsible for choosing a source permitted for their purpose.
5. No Legal Advice
The material is general information, not legal advice. Only a licensed Texas attorney can assess how a Potter County charge, warrant, conviction, expunction, or nondisclosure rule applies to a particular matter.
6. No Warranties
All content is supplied "as is." No warranty is made that:
- The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given time
- The site will stay up and running without interruptions
- Our pages are free of errors, bugs, or security holes
- Results from our partner search tools will be thorough or accurate
Charges, custody, dispositions, access rules, and record status can change. Gaps and delays are unavoidable. Nothing published here is an official statement from Potter County, a court, a sheriff, or a Texas agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links may lead to Potter County offices, court portals, Texas agencies, legal resources, or outside search providers. Those destinations control their own content, data practices, availability, and prices. This site accepts no responsibility for them, and their terms should be reviewed before use.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Potter County Criminal History or its content partners. Copying, distributing, adapting, or building on that material requires prior written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site is not liable for loss arising from its use, including reliance on content found here or through a linked service.
10. Indemnification
A user agrees to hold the site harmless from claims or demands caused by that user's conduct or breach of these terms, including related legal costs and fees.
11. Governing Law
Texas law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to use of the website must be brought in a court located in Texas.
12. Changes to These Terms
These terms may be revised at any time. A revision takes effect when it is posted on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be restricted or ended at any time, for any reason, without prior notice.
14. Severability
If one term is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms remain effective. The affected language is narrowed only as needed for enforcement.
