Terms of Use

These conditions govern access to Lebanon County Criminal History. Reading a page, using a search box, or otherwise continuing on the site means that you accept them. Do not use the resource if you disagree with these terms.

NO FCRA USE. Lebanon County Criminal History is privately operated and has no government affiliation. It is neither a consumer reporting agency nor a private investigation firm. This resource and its advertising partners do not provide tools for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other decisions governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its purpose is to route readers to criminal-record resources in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference site with no connection to a public agency. It cannot file documents, perform official checks, retrieve records, or keep official criminal-history files.

The site identifies Lebanon County courts, the proper police and corrections offices, Pennsylvania State Police Central Repository, and the Pennsylvania State Police Megan's Law Website. It also provides access to outside search tools that may assist research.

2. Rules for Using This Site

Use is conditioned on the following limits. You may not:

  • Disrupt access for other visitors or degrade site performance
  • Use bots, scrapers, or similar automated collection tools
  • Attempt unauthorized access to any system or data
  • Use site information for an employment, housing, lending, or insurance decision
  • Threaten, stalk, or harass another person with information found here
  • Violate federal, Pennsylvania, or local law

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

No one may use information from this resource or a linked tool to intimidate, stalk, harass, threaten, or discriminate against a person. Misuse may also violate the law. The Pennsylvania State Police Megan's Law Website is intended for public safety awareness. Pennsylvania warns that threats, intimidation, harassment, or other misuse of registry information can lead to criminal prosecution or civil liability. It is not permission for vigilante conduct or discriminatory decisions.

4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and do not create consumer reports, credit reports, or official background checks. Site data and linked tools may not be used to:

  • Set insurance terms or assess creditworthiness
  • Evaluate a rental or housing application
  • Make a hiring or termination decision
  • Decide access to a license, permit, or public program
  • Carry out any other FCRA-regulated purpose

A lawful check for a regulated purpose must come through an appropriate FCRA-compliant provider or the official Pennsylvania process that applies.

5. No Legal Advice

The content is general information, not legal advice. Only a licensed Pennsylvania attorney can advise how an expungement rule, warrant, conviction, or charge affects a particular situation.

6. No Warranties

All content and services are supplied "as is." There is no guarantee that:

  • An outside search provider's result is complete or correct
  • The pages contain no error, defect, or security weakness
  • Access will always be available without interruption
  • Published information is always complete, current, or accurate

Criminal records change as charges are filed, resolved, sealed, or expunged. Gaps and delays can occur. Site content is not an official statement from Pennsylvania, Lebanon County, a court, police agency, or sheriff.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links lead to county offices, court portals, Pennsylvania agencies, legal organizations, and outside services. We do not control a destination's content, availability, data practices, or charges. Review its own terms before use.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Lebanon 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 fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for damage arising from site use, including reliance on content supplied here or by a linked service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless against a claim, demand, or action caused by your use of the site or violation of these terms, including related legal fees and costs.

11. Governing Law

Pennsylvania law governs these terms. A dispute connected with site use must be brought in a court located in Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania Right-to-Know Law and Criminal History Record Information Act govern covered public records and agencies; they do not make this private site a government records custodian.

12. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised. A new version takes effect when it is posted here.

13. Cutting Off Access

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

14. Severability

If one provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the rest remain effective. The affected text will be limited only as much as needed to make it enforceable.

15. Questions
