Terms of Use

The conditions below govern access to and use of this website. Viewing its content or submitting a search signifies agreement to them; anyone who does not agree must discontinue use.

NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website is independent of government. It and its advertising partners do not provide products intended for credit, hiring, rental, insurance, or another decision regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The website only directs readers to Lincoln Parish and Louisiana record resources; it is neither a private-investigation business nor a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This independent reference resource has no government connection. It does not keep official criminal records or retrieve them, perform government checks, or submit paperwork for a visitor.

Its function is to identify likely Lincoln Parish custodians, including the sheriff, criminal courts, BCII, and the Louisiana Sex Offender and Child Predator Registry, and provide access to optional outside research tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

Use of the website is conditioned on an agreement not to:

  • Violate a local, Louisiana, federal, or other applicable law
  • Employ any information to threaten, harass, or stalk a person
  • Rely on content for employment, housing, credit, or insurance decisions
  • Attempt unauthorized entry into accounts, servers, or restricted systems
  • Deploy scraping software, bots, or other automated collection methods
  • Interfere with performance, availability, or another visitor's access

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

No information obtained here or through a linked service may be used to intimidate, threaten, stalk, harass, or discriminate, and such conduct can be criminal. Louisiana places particular limits on misuse of its Sex Offender and Child Predator Registry. Registry publication supports lawful public-safety awareness; it does not authorize vigilantism, employment blacklisting, housing discrimination, or action against a registrant.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

This operation is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and produces no credit report, background check, or consumer report. Its advertising partners likewise are not presented as tools for applicant screening, rental review, insurance pricing, or credit evaluation. Information here or in a linked tool must not be used to:

  • Make an employment selection or termination decision
  • Evaluate a tenant, renter, or other housing applicant
  • Assess credit or establish an insurance price
  • Determine eligibility for a public benefit, permit, or license
  • Support any other determination regulated by the FCRA

A lawful check for one of those purposes must be obtained through an appropriate Louisiana State Police BCII route or a screening company that complies with the FCRA.

5. No Legal Advice

General descriptions of Lincoln Parish records do not constitute legal advice. Only a licensed Louisiana attorney can advise how a conviction, charge, warrant, or expungement provision affects particular facts.

6. No Warranties

All services and content are supplied "as is," without a promise that:

  • Published details will always be complete, accurate, and current
  • Access will remain continuous or interruption-free
  • Every page will be free from defects, vulnerabilities, or programming errors
  • An outside search result will be comprehensive or correct

New filings, dismissals, sealing, and expungements continually alter criminal-record access, making omissions and delays unavoidable. Content here is never an official representation by a court, sheriff, or public agency.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to sheriff, court, agency, legal-aid, or commercial-search websites that we neither own nor control. Their content, uptime, fees, and data practices are their responsibility, and visitors should examine the destination's terms before proceeding.

8. Intellectual Property

Lincoln Parish Criminal History or its content partners own the website's text, code, logos, and graphics. Written authorization is required before copying, adapting, distributing, or creating derivative material from that content.

9. Limits on Our Liability

Within the maximum limits permitted by law, liability is disclaimed for losses arising from website use, linked services, or a decision based on information obtained through either.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against claims, proceedings, and demands resulting from your website use or violation of these conditions, including related costs and legal fees.

11. Governing Law

Louisiana law governs these conditions, and any proceeding arising from website use must be brought in a court situated in Louisiana.

12. Changes to These Terms

These conditions may be revised at any time, with a revision taking effect when the updated text is posted here.

13. Cutting Off Access

Access may be restricted or terminated at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in effect, and the affected language will be modified only to the extent necessary for enforceability.

15. Questions

Questions concerning these conditions may be directed through the Contact page.
