Terms of Use

These conditions govern use of the website. Accessing its pages, content, or search tools indicates acceptance of every term below. Do not continue using the website if you disagree with them.

NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website is not affiliated with Glenn County, the State of California, or another government entity. It and its advertising partners do not provide reports for credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The website identifies public-record resources only and is neither a consumer reporting agency nor a private investigation service.

1. What This Website Is

This is a privately maintained reference resource without a government connection. We neither store official criminal records nor retrieve records, perform official checks, or submit filings for users.

It points to custodians of Glenn County information, including the sheriff, Glenn Superior Court, California Department of Justice, and California Megan's Law Website. Public access to local agency records is governed in part by the California Public Records Act, Government Code sections 7920.000 through 7931.000. California Penal Code section 11105 separately limits dissemination of state repository criminal history. Links may also lead to independent search providers.

2. Rules for Using This Site

By using the website, you agree not to:

  • Deploy a bot, scraper, or other automated access tool
  • Use information to stalk, threaten, or harass another person
  • Interfere with performance or prevent another visitor's access
  • Rely on the content for hiring, housing, credit, or insurance decisions
  • Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
  • Violate federal, California, or local law

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

No information obtained here or through an external tool may be used for stalking, harassment, threats, intimidation, or unlawful discrimination. California Penal Code section 290.46 restricts misuse of California Megan's Law Website information and permits additional penalties. Registry disclosure is intended for public safety, not vigilantism or illegal exclusion.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the FCRA and do not create consumer, credit, or background reports. Our advertising partners likewise do not offer these tools for screening applicants, reviewing rental requests, setting insurance rates, or assessing credit. Information from the website or a linked tool must not be used to:

  • Determine eligibility for a license, permit, or government benefit
  • Assess credit or establish an insurance premium
  • Make a decision about a prospective or current worker
  • Evaluate a renter or housing applicant
  • Support any other FCRA-regulated decision

Any report required for an FCRA-regulated purpose must be obtained from a provider legally authorized and compliant for that use.

5. No Legal Advice

Nothing published here constitutes legal advice. General Glenn County record information cannot decide how a warrant, charge, conviction, arrest-sealing law, or Penal Code section 1203.4 dismissal affects an individual. Seek advice from a California-licensed attorney.

6. No Warranties

All website material is supplied "as is," without a guarantee that:

  • Outside search results will be complete or correct
  • Information will always be accurate, current, or complete
  • Pages contain no errors, defects, or security weaknesses
  • Service will remain continuously available

Criminal records change as charges are filed, dismissed, sealed, or granted relief. Gaps and delays are unavoidable. Content here is never an official statement from a court, sheriff, or other government office.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to sheriff websites, court portals, California agencies, legal-aid organizations, and outside search services. We do not control those destinations and are not responsible for their content, privacy practices, charges, or availability. Review the destination's terms before use.

8. Intellectual Property

Glenn County Criminal History or its content partners own the text, graphics, logos, and code. Prior written consent is required to copy, alter, distribute, or create derivative material from them.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim liability for damages arising from website use, including reliance on information obtained here or through an outside service.

10. Indemnification

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

11. Governing Law

These terms are governed by California law. Any dispute based on website use must be filed in a court within California.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms at any time. A revised version becomes effective when posted here.

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, all remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be modified only to the extent needed for enforceability.

15. Questions
