Terms of Use

These conditions govern use of the San Miguel County Criminal History website. Visiting a page, reading its content, or submitting a search signifies acceptance. Do not continue using the website if you disagree with them.

NO FCRA USE. This privately owned website is not connected to any government agency. Neither it nor its advertising partners supplies a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other Fair Credit Reporting Act decisions. It is a reference to San Miguel County and Colorado record sources, not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This private reference site operates independently of government. It neither stores official criminal records nor retrieves records, conducts official checks, or files documents for users.

Its role is to identify the San Miguel County Sheriff, San Miguel Combined Courts, Colorado Bureau of Investigation, Colorado Sex Offender Registry, and third-party research tools that may be relevant.

2. Rules for Using This Site

As a condition of access, you must not:

  • Break any federal, state, or local law while using this site
  • Use information you find here to stalk, harass, or threaten anyone
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on content from this site
  • Try to break into our systems or gain access you are not supposed to have
  • Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against our pages
  • Do anything that slows the site down or blocks other people from using it

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

Information obtained here or through a linked tool may not be used to harass, stalk, intimidate, threaten, or discriminate. Colorado law restricts use of Colorado Sex Offender Registry data, and C.R.S. §18-9-310.5 provides criminal penalties for specified misuse. Registry publication serves community safety, not vigilante conduct or prohibited discrimination.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not create consumer reports, credit reports, or background checks. Our advertising partners' tools are not offered for FCRA-regulated decisions. You may not use site or linked data to:

  • Decide whether to hire or fire someone
  • Screen potential renters or housing applicants
  • Judge creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
  • Determine who qualifies for licenses, permits, or government programs
  • Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules

A legally authorized check for such a purpose must come from the correct Colorado Bureau of Investigation process or an FCRA-compliant provider.

5. No Legal Advice

Nothing here is legal advice. General San Miguel County record information cannot determine how a charge, conviction, warrant, adult sealing rule, or juvenile expungement rule applies. Consult a licensed Colorado attorney.

6. No Warranties

All content is supplied "as is," without a guarantee 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, dispositions, sealing orders, and juvenile expungements can change a record. Gaps are unavoidable, and no content here is an official statement from the Sheriff, a court, or another agency.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to the Sheriff, courts, Colorado agencies, legal organizations, or outside search services. We do not control their content, availability, data practices, or fees. Review the destination's terms before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to San Miguel County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, changed, or adapted without prior written permission.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, we disclaim liability for damages arising from use of the site or reliance on information found here or through a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims, demands, or proceedings caused by your use of the site or violation of these terms, including related legal costs.

11. Governing Law

Colorado law governs these terms, including applicable provisions of the Colorado Consumer Protection Act and Colorado Privacy Act in C.R.S. Title 6. A dispute connected with use of the site must be brought in a court located in Colorado.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms. A revision takes effect when it is posted on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

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

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in force. The affected term is modified only to the extent needed for enforceability.

15. Questions

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