Terms of Use

These conditions govern access to and use of this website. Visiting a page, reading its content, or submitting a search signifies acceptance of every term below. If you disagree with any condition, stop using the site.

NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website is not affiliated with a local, Michigan, or federal government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides a service intended for credit decisions, employment screening, tenant screening, insurance underwriting, or another purpose governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). The resource identifies Saginaw County and Michigan criminal-record channels. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.

1. What This Website Is

This is a private reference resource with no government connection. It does not keep official criminal files, retrieve records, conduct official checks, or submit documents for visitors.

Its purpose is to identify Saginaw County custodians, including the sheriff and jail, the 70th District and 10th Circuit courts, Michigan State Police CJIC, and the Michigan Public Sex Offender Registry. It may also connect visitors to outside search tools.

2. Rules for Using This Site

By using the site, you agree not to:

  • Use the site in violation of federal, Michigan, or local law
  • Threaten, stalk, or harass another person with information obtained here
  • Use site content for hiring, housing, credit, or insurance decisions
  • Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
  • Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools against the pages
  • Interfere with performance or prevent others from using the service

3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination

Information obtained here or through a linked service may not be used to harass, stalk, intimidate, threaten, or unlawfully discriminate against anyone. Such conduct may violate law. The Michigan Sex Offenders Registration Act, MCL 28.721 to 28.730, creates the public and law-enforcement registry system and its duties. Michigan PSOR information is provided for public safety, never for vigilantism, harassment, employment blacklisting, or housing discrimination.

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 background checks. Our advertising partners likewise do not offer tools here for screening job applicants, evaluating rental applications, setting insurance rates, or assessing credit. You may not use this site or a linked tool to:

  • Evaluate a rental or housing application
  • Make a hiring, firing, or other employment decision
  • Set an insurance premium or assess creditworthiness
  • Determine eligibility for a license, permit, or public benefit
  • Carry out any other FCRA-regulated decision

Any check needed for a regulated purpose must come from Michigan State Police CJIC when its official process applies or from a screening provider that complies with the FCRA.

5. No Legal Advice

Site content is general information, not legal advice. Although it describes Saginaw County record systems, it cannot determine how a charge, warrant, conviction, or Michigan set-aside rule applies to a particular matter. Seek advice from a licensed Michigan attorney.

6. No Warranties

All content and services are provided "as is." We make no promise that:

  • Information will always be current, accurate, or complete
  • Partner search results will be correct or comprehensive
  • The pages contain no defects, errors, or security weaknesses
  • Service will remain continuously available

Criminal records can change when charges are filed or dismissed, dispositions are corrected, or convictions become nonpublic. Gaps and delays are unavoidable. No content here is an official statement from the Saginaw County sheriff, a court, Michigan State Police, or another public body. Michigan FOIA, MCL 15.231 to 15.246, governs access to nonexempt executive-agency records, while Michigan Court Rule 8.119 governs court records obtained from the clerk.

7. Third-Party Services and Links

Links may lead to sheriff pages, court portals, Michigan agencies, legal-aid organizations, or outside search providers. Those destinations are beyond our control. We are not responsible for their availability, content, prices, data practices, or accuracy. Review the destination's own terms before using it.

8. Intellectual Property

Text, logos, graphics, and code are owned by Saginaw County Criminal History or its content partners. You may not reproduce, distribute, adapt, or create derivative works from that material without prior written authorization.

9. Limits on Our Liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for damages arising from use of the site, including reliance on information obtained here or through an outside service.

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims, demands, or proceedings caused by your site use or violation of these terms, including associated legal fees and costs.

11. Governing Law

Michigan law governs these terms. A dispute arising from use of the site must be brought in a court located in Michigan.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms at any time. A revision takes effect when the updated terms are posted on this page.

13. Cutting Off Access

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

14. Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected term will be modified only to the extent needed for enforcement.

15. Questions

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