NO FCRA USE. This privately run website is not affiliated with any government body and is not a consumer reporting agency. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other Fair Credit Reporting Act decisions. Use is limited to lawful research and public-record reference purposes.
1. What This Website Is
This is an independent reference resource, not a Giles County or Commonwealth of Virginia office. It does not store official criminal records, conduct official background checks, retrieve files, or submit forms for a visitor.
The material identifies custodians such as Giles court clerks, police agencies, Virginia State Police, and the Virginia Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry. Official criminal-history dissemination remains subject to Virginia Code section 19.2-389. Public-body request procedures are governed where applicable by the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, not by this private site's terms.
2. Rules for Using This Site
You agree to use the site in a lawful way and not to:
- Violate federal, Virginia, or local law
- Stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten another person
- Use any content for an FCRA-regulated decision
- Attempt unauthorized access to a page, server, or account
- Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools
- Interfere with the site's speed, availability, or use by others
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
Information reached here or through a linked tool may not be used to harass, threaten, stalk, intimidate, or discriminate against anyone. Virginia registry information is supplied for lawful public-safety awareness. Misuse against a listed person or household can carry criminal or civil consequences. The registry never authorizes confrontation, trespass, or vigilante conduct.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We do not create a consumer report, credit report, or background screening product and are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. You may not use site content or a linked search tool to:
- Make an employment decision
- Evaluate a renter or housing application
- Set insurance terms or judge creditworthiness
- Determine access to a license, permit, or public benefit
- Take any other action regulated by the FCRA
A legally required official or regulated check must go through Virginia State Police or another provider authorized for that purpose.
5. No Legal Advice
Explanations of Giles County records and Virginia processes are general information. They are not legal advice and cannot determine how a charge, warrant, registry duty, sealing law, or expungement rule applies to a particular case. A licensed Virginia lawyer can address an individual situation.
6. No Warranties
The site and all information are supplied “as is.” We do not promise that:
- Any fact, contact, procedure, or record description is complete or current
- The site will always be available or uninterrupted
- Every page will be free from errors or security defects
- An outside search provider will return complete or correctly matched results
Cases, charges, addresses, fees, laws, and access rules change. Verify material with the Giles County office or Virginia agency that maintains the original record.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links can lead to court systems, police or state pages, legal resources, advertisers, and outside search companies. Those services control their own content, availability, prices, privacy practices, and terms. We are not responsible for what occurs after a visitor leaves this site.
8. Intellectual Property
Unless another owner is identified, the site's text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Giles County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, changed, distributed, or adapted without written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for losses or damages arising from site use, inability to use the site, reliance on its content, or use of an outside service reached through a link.
10. Indemnification
You agree to defend and hold us harmless from a claim, demand, action, expense, or legal fee caused by your use of the site or your breach of these terms.
11. Governing Law
Virginia law governs these terms. A dispute concerning use of the website must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
12. Changes to These Terms
These conditions may be revised. A new version takes effect when it is posted here, so continued use after an update signifies acceptance of the revised terms.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be limited or ended at any time, without notice, including when site security, misuse, legal obligations, or operational needs require it.
14. Severability
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms continue in effect. The affected provision will be limited only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
