NO FCRA USE. This privately owned resource has no government affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners offers a service for any use governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Its purpose is to help readers locate Deschutes County, Oregon record channels. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site. We operate on our own with no ties to any government office. We do not store official criminal records and we cannot pull records, run official background checks, or file documents for anyone.
The content directs readers to DCSO, Oregon courts, Oregon State Police CJIS, and the Oregon Sex Offender Registration Section, along with outside tools that may aid lawful personal research.
2. Rules for Using This Site
You agree that you will 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 may not be used to harass, stalk, intimidate, threaten, or unlawfully discriminate. Oregon law restricts misuse of state registry data and may impose criminal or civil consequences. Registry information exists for public safety awareness, never vigilantism.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. We do not generate background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports of any kind. Neither we nor our advertising partners provide services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, calculating insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use data from this site or any linked tool 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
Any check for a regulated purpose must come from Oregon State Police CJIS or a legally compliant consumer reporting provider.
5. No Legal Advice
Nothing here is legal advice. General Deschutes County record information cannot determine how a charge, warrant, conviction, or set-aside rule applies to you. Consult an Oregon attorney for advice.
6. No Warranties
Everything on this site is provided "as is." We do not 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
Criminal records change all the time - charges are filed, dismissed, sealed, and expunged. We try to keep up, but gaps are unavoidable. Nothing on this site should be treated as an official statement from a court, sheriff, or government agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
We link to sheriff's office sites, court portals, state agency pages, legal aid organizations, and outside search services across this site. Clicking one of those links moves you off our platform and onto one we have no control over. We are not responsible for their content, how they handle data, what they charge, or whether their site stays online. Check their terms before using them.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Deschutes County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, changed, distributed, or adapted without prior written permission.

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for damages that come from using this site - including decisions made based on information found here or through any linked service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to hold us harmless from any claim, legal action, or demand that stems from how you used this site or from breaking these terms. That includes covering our legal fees and related costs.
11. Governing Law
Oregon law governs these terms. Any dispute connected with use of the resource must be filed in an Oregon court with proper jurisdiction.
12. Changes to These Terms
