NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website is not affiliated with Lee County, the Commonwealth of Virginia, or any government body. Neither the site nor its advertising tools are offered for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The website is not a consumer reporting agency or a private investigation firm.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site with no government role. It does not store official criminal records, perform an official check, retrieve a case file, or submit paperwork for a visitor.
Its content identifies the Lee County sheriff, General District Court and Circuit Court clerks, Virginia State Police CARE, and the Virginia Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry. Public-body access is governed by laws such as the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, while Virginia Code § 19.2-389 separately limits dissemination of repository criminal-history information.
2. Rules for Using This Site
Use of the site is conditioned on the following restrictions. A visitor must not:
- Interfere with site access or impose an unreasonable load on its systems
- Attempt unauthorized entry into an account, server, or restricted function
- Use a bot, scraper, or other automated collection method without permission
- Harass, stalk, threaten, or target a person with information found here
- Use site content for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another FCRA-regulated decision
- Violate federal, Virginia, Lee County, or other applicable law
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
No visitor may use site content or linked results to harass, stalk, threaten, intimidate, or unlawfully discriminate against another person. That ban applies with special force to the Virginia Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry. Virginia Code § 9.1-912 frames public dissemination around public safety, not vigilantism or private punishment. Registry misuse may violate criminal or civil law.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
Lee County Criminal History is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and does not prepare a consumer report, credit report, or official background check. Its content and linked advertising tools are not offered for the following uses:
- Determining eligibility for credit or setting credit terms
- Evaluating a person for employment
- Reviewing a tenant or housing application
- Setting insurance eligibility, rates, or underwriting terms
- Making any other decision regulated by the FCRA
A legally compliant check for a regulated purpose must be obtained through a properly authorized official or FCRA-compliant channel, not through this website or its search widget.
5. No Legal Advice
Content is general information, not legal advice. It cannot determine how a Lee County charge, conviction, warrant, registry duty, expungement, or sealing rule applies to one person. Advice about a specific matter should come from a licensed Virginia attorney.
6. No Warranties
All content and functions are provided "as is" and "as available." No warranty is made that:
- Outside search results will be complete, current, or matched to the right person
- The website will operate without delay or interruption
- Site pages will remain free from defects or security risks
- Any statement will remain accurate, complete, or current
A charge may be amended or dismissed, and a record may later be corrected, expunged, or sealed. Site content can therefore lag behind the originating file. Only the responsible court, sheriff, Virginia State Police unit, or other government custodian can issue an official statement or record.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links may lead to government agencies, court portals, legal resources, or outside search services. Those destinations are independently operated. We do not control their availability, prices, results, content, terms, or data practices, and accept no responsibility for them. Review the destination's own terms before use.
8. Intellectual Property
Unless another owner is identified, site text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Lee County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, modified, distributed, or used to create derivative work without prior written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from use of the website, inability to use it, or reliance on content or a linked service.
10. Indemnification
A visitor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, demands, losses, and reasonable legal costs caused by that visitor's use, misuse, or breach of these terms.
11. Governing Law
Virginia law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from site use must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
12. Changes to These Terms
These terms may be changed from time to time. A revised version takes effect when it is published on this page unless the revision states a later date.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be suspended, limited, or ended at any time, with or without notice, including when use threatens the website or violates these terms.
14. Severability
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in force. The affected term will be limited only as much as necessary to make it enforceable where possible.
15. Questions
