NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no connection to a local, state, or federal agency. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provide a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to identify criminal-record resources in Clinton County and Michigan. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site, independent of every government office. We neither store official criminal records nor obtain official checks or file papers for visitors.
Information here identifies the Clinton County Sheriff, local courts, Michigan State Police repository, Michigan Public Sex Offender Registry, and other official sources. Some pages also connect to independently operated research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
As a condition of access, you agree not to:
- Use the site in violation of federal, Michigan, or local law
- Threaten, stalk, or harass another person with information found here
- Use any content for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions
- Attempt unauthorized entry into site systems
- Send bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools against the pages
- Interfere with performance or another visitor's access
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
Information from this site or a linked tool may not be used to stalk, harass, intimidate, threaten, or unlawfully discriminate. The Michigan Public Sex Offender Registry warns that using its data to unlawfully injure or harass a listed person, or anyone at a reported address, can lead to civil or criminal consequences. Registry information supports public safety awareness, not vigilante conduct or prohibited decisions.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not produce consumer reports, credit reports, or official background checks. The site and its advertising partners are not services for evaluating applicants, insurance risk, rental applications, or credit. Data from the site or a linked tool may 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
Any legally permitted screening need must be handled through an appropriate official or FCRA-compliant provider, not this website.
5. No Legal Advice
Nothing here is legal advice. General explanations about Clinton County records cannot determine how a charge, conviction, warrant, or Michigan set-aside rule applies to one matter. Ask a licensed Michigan attorney for legal advice.
6. No Warranties
All material is provided "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
Criminal records can change when charges are filed, dismissed, restricted, or set aside. Updates may lag. Nothing here is an official statement from a court, sheriff, or other government agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links can lead to sheriff sites, court portals, Michigan agencies, legal-aid groups, and outside search providers. Those destinations are not controlled by us. We are not responsible for their content, privacy practices, pricing, or availability. Review their terms before use.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Clinton County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, changed, distributed, or used for derivative work without prior written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, we are not liable for damage arising from use of the site, including reliance on content or an outside linked service.

You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims, demands, and actions caused by your use of the site or violation of these terms, including related legal costs where permitted.

These terms may be revised at any time. A revised version takes effect when posted here.
13. Cutting Off Access
We may restrict or end access at any time and without advance notice.
