Terms of Use

These conditions govern use of Trousdale County Criminal History. Reading the content, visiting a page, or submitting a search means that you accept them. Do not continue to use the site if you disagree with any condition.

NO FCRA USE. Trousdale County Criminal History is privately operated and has no government affiliation. The site and its advertising partners do not provide services for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). This resource helps readers locate criminal-record sources in Trousdale County and Tennessee. It is neither a consumer reporting agency nor a private investigation service.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference site with no connection to a government office. It does not store official records, submit filings, obtain records for users, or conduct official background checks.

Its content directs readers to the Trousdale County sheriff and courts, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, the Tennessee Sex Offender Registry, and other relevant sources. Some pages also provide access to outside search tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

By using the site, you agree not to:

  • 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

You may not use site content or linked search results to threaten, stalk, harass, intimidate, or discriminate against anyone. Tennessee law places special limits on misuse of Tennessee Sex Offender Registry information, and unlawful conduct toward a registrant can lead to criminal or civil consequences. Registry publication serves community safety and does not authorize vigilantism or 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 official background checks. Our advertising partners do not offer site tools for FCRA-regulated decisions. Information from this site or a linked tool must not be used 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 person who needs a check for a regulated purpose must use the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation's authorized process or a service that complies with the FCRA.

5. No Legal Advice

Site content is general information, not legal advice. Only a licensed Tennessee attorney can advise how a warrant, charge, conviction, or expungement rule affects a specific situation.

6. No Warranties

All content and services are supplied "as is." We make no promise 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 and records can be filed, changed, dismissed, restricted, or expunged. Updates may lag, so no site statement should be treated as an official certification from a sheriff, court, or government agency.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links lead to county offices, courts, Tennessee agencies, legal resources, and private search services. We do not control an outside site's availability, fees, privacy practices, or content. Review that provider's terms before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, code, logos, and graphics belong to Trousdale County Criminal History or the applicable content partner. Written permission is required before copying, adapting, or distributing protected material.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the broadest extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for damages arising from use of the site, its information, or any linked service.

10. Indemnification

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

11. Governing Law

Tennessee law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to site use must be brought in a court located in Tennessee.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these conditions. An updated version takes effect when it is posted here.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be limited or ended at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in force. The affected language will be adjusted only as far as needed to make it enforceable.

15. Questions
