NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no connection to a local, state, or federal government agency. The site and its advertising partners do not provide services for credit decisions, employment screening, insurance underwriting, tenant screening, or another purpose regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). Its role is to direct readers to criminal-record resources for Perquimans County and North Carolina. It is neither a consumer reporting agency nor a private investigation firm.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site that operates independently from government. It does not keep official criminal records, retrieve records on a visitor's behalf, perform official background checks, or submit documents for anyone.
The site directs readers to the offices and systems that maintain Perquimans County records. Those sources include the county sheriff, North Carolina courts, the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation Criminal Information and Identification Section, and the North Carolina Sex Offender and Public Protection Registry. Some pages also connect readers with outside research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
Use of the site is conditioned on avoiding each of the following acts:
- Using site content to stalk, threaten, or harass a person
- Violating federal, North Carolina, or local law while accessing the site
- Relying on site content for lending, employment, housing, or insurance decisions
- Attempting to enter systems or areas without authorization
- Deploying scrapers, bots, or other automated tools against these pages
- Interfering with site performance or another person's access
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
Site content and linked tools may not be used to stalk, intimidate, threaten, harass, or discriminate against anyone. Such conduct may also violate the law. This rule is especially important for the North Carolina Sex Offender and Public Protection Registry. Its acceptable-use policy warns that threats, stalking, intimidation, harassment, and other criminal misuse may be prosecuted, while Article 27A of Chapter 14 governs public registry access. Registry information supports safety awareness. It does not permit vigilante conduct, employment blacklisting, or housing discrimination.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and does not create consumer reports, credit reports, or background checks. Its advertising partners likewise do not offer tools designed to review rental applications, screen job applicants, assess creditworthiness, or set insurance rates. Information found here or through a linked tool may not be used to:
- Judge creditworthiness or establish insurance premiums
- Make a hiring or firing decision
- Evaluate a renter or housing applicant
- Determine eligibility for a license, permit, or government program
- Carry out any other activity governed by the FCRA
A check needed for a regulated purpose must be obtained through an authorized North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation channel or a screening provider that complies with the FCRA.
5. No Legal Advice
Content on this site is not legal advice. General descriptions of Perquimans County records cannot determine how a warrant, charge, conviction, or North Carolina expunction rule applies in a specific matter. A licensed North Carolina attorney can provide advice about individual facts.
6. No Warranties
All site content and functions are supplied "as is." No guarantee is made that:
- A partner search tool will return complete or accurate results
- Information will always be current, complete, or correct
- The site will operate continuously without interruption
- Every page will be free from defects, bugs, or security flaws
Criminal records can change when charges are filed or dismissed and when matters are restricted or expunged. Updates may not appear here at once, so omissions and delays can occur. No content on this site is an official statement from the Perquimans County sheriff, a North Carolina court, or any other government agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links may lead to sheriff pages, North Carolina court portals, state agencies, legal-aid groups, and outside search services. Following a link opens a service outside this site's control. Responsibility is disclaimed for an external service's content, availability, prices, and data practices. Review that provider's own terms before use.
8. Intellectual Property
Perquimans County Criminal History or its content partners own the site's text, graphics, logos, and code. Written permission is required before copying, distributing, modifying, or creating derivative material from that content.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site disclaims liability for damages arising from its use, including decisions based on content found here or through an external service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold the site harmless against claims, demands, or legal actions caused by your use of the site or a violation of these terms, including related costs and legal fees.
11. Governing Law
North Carolina law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to use of the site must be brought in a court located within North Carolina.
12. Changes to These Terms
These terms may be revised at any time. A new version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
Access to the site may be restricted or ended at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.
14. Severability
