Terms of Use

These conditions govern every visit, search, and use of content on San Juan County Criminal History. Continued use means you accept them. If you disagree, do not access the site.

NO FCRA USE. This privately owned site has no local, Colorado, or federal government affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners provides a service intended for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) decisions. It is a San Juan County records reference, not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This private reference site operates independently of government. It does not store official records, perform official checks, retrieve files, or submit documents for users.

Its content identifies San Juan Sheriff, the local courts, Colorado Bureau of Investigation, and Colorado Sex Offender Registry as official custodians and may connect readers to outside research tools.

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

Harassing, stalking, intimidating, threatening, or discriminating against anyone with site or linked-tool information is forbidden and may be criminal. Colorado restricts misuse of Colorado Sex Offender Registry data, including under C.R.S. § 18-9-310.5. Registry information supports public safety awareness, never vigilantism or discriminatory action.

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

When a regulated purpose requires a check, use an authorized Colorado Bureau of Investigation channel or an FCRA-compliant screening provider.

5. No Legal Advice

Site content is not legal advice. General explanations of San Juan County records cannot determine how a charge, conviction, warrant, or sealing rule applies to a person. Consult a licensed Colorado attorney.

6. No Warranties

All site content and services are supplied "as is." No guarantee 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, dismissals, and Colorado sealing orders can change a record. Gaps and delays are unavoidable, and site content must never be treated as an official statement from a court, sheriff, or agency.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links to Sheriff sites, courts, Colorado agencies, legal-aid organizations, and outside search services lead to systems beyond our control. Their content, data practices, prices, and availability are their responsibility. Review the destination's terms before use.

8. Intellectual Property

San Juan County Criminal History or its content partners own the site's text, graphics, logos, and code. Written permission is required to copy, distribute, adapt, or build upon that material.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, we accept no liability for damages arising from site use, including reliance on information found here or through a linked service.

10. Indemnification

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

11. Governing Law

Colorado law governs these terms. Any dispute arising from site use must be brought in a court located in Colorado.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A revision becomes effective when 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 a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, every remaining provision continues in force. The affected language will be adjusted only as far as necessary.
