NO FCRA USE. Madison County Criminal History is privately operated and has no link to a local, Kentucky, or federal government body. Neither it nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, tenant, or insurance decisions, or for any other Fair Credit Reporting Act purpose. The site points readers toward criminal-record resources in Madison County, Kentucky. It is not a private-investigation service or consumer reporting agency.
1. Nature of the Website
This is a private reference site with no government affiliation. It does not store official records, perform authorized criminal-history checks, retrieve files, or submit paperwork for users.
Its function is to identify the offices that hold Madison County records, including local police custodians, the detention center, Kentucky courts, Kentucky State Police Criminal Identification and Records Branch, and the Kentucky State Police Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also connect to independently operated search tools.
2. Acceptable Use
Users agree not to:
- Disrupt the website or interfere with another person's access
- Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools against its pages
- Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
- Use site content for decisions governed by the FCRA
- Threaten, stalk, or harass anyone using information found here
- Violate any federal, Kentucky, or local law
3. No Harassment or Discrimination
No one may use content from this site or a linked tool to stalk, threaten, intimidate, harass, or discriminate against another person. Misuse may be criminal. Kentucky State Police Sex Offender Registry information requires special care under KRS 17.580 and official portal warnings. It exists for public-safety awareness, never vigilantism or unlawful discrimination.
4. No Consumer Reports
Madison County Criminal History is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. It does not create consumer reports, credit files, or screening products. Site data and linked-tool output cannot be used to:
- Make any other determination regulated by the FCRA
- Establish eligibility for a license, permit, or government benefit
- Set insurance terms or evaluate creditworthiness
- Assess a housing application
- Make an employment decision
A legally permissible check for a regulated purpose must come from the authorized Kentucky channel or a consumer reporting agency that complies with the FCRA.
5. No Legal Advice
Site content is general information, not legal advice. It cannot determine how a Madison County charge, warrant, conviction, or Kentucky expungement law applies to a particular person. A licensed Kentucky attorney should answer such questions.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties
All content and functions are offered "as is." There is no guarantee that:
- An outside provider's result is complete or correctly matched
- Pages contain no error, defect, or security weakness
- The service will remain uninterrupted
- Every fact is complete, accurate, or current
Justice records change as charges are filed, amended, dismissed, sealed, or expunged. Delays and gaps can occur. Only the originating Madison County or Kentucky agency can issue an official statement about its record.
7. External Services and Links
Links may lead to government offices, court systems, legal resources, and outside search providers. Those destinations control their content, availability, prices, and data practices. Their own terms should be reviewed before use, and this site assumes no responsibility for them.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Madison County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, changed, distributed, or adapted without prior written permission.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent Kentucky law permits, the operator is not liable for damage arising from use of the website, its content, or any linked service.
10. Indemnification
Users agree to indemnify and hold the operator harmless from claims, demands, and proceedings caused by their use of the site or breach of these terms, including related legal costs.
11. Governing Law
Kentucky law governs these terms. A dispute tied to website use must be brought in a court located within Kentucky.
12. Changes to These Terms
The operator may revise these terms. A revision becomes effective when the updated text is posted on this page.
13. Access Restrictions
The operator may suspend or end access at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.
14. Severability
If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms continue in force. The affected language will be limited only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
