NO FCRA USE. Outagamie County Criminal History is privately operated and has no affiliation with a local, Wisconsin, or federal government agency. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers a service for credit, employment, tenant, insurance, or another purpose governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The website is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference website with no government authority. It does not store official records, retrieve them for visitors, perform an official background check, or submit a filing.
Its content identifies the offices that hold Outagamie County records, including the Sheriff Records Unit, Circuit Court, Wisconsin DOJ Crime Information Bureau and WORCS, and Wisconsin DOC Sex Offender Registry. Some pages also display outside research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
Use of the website is conditioned on the following restrictions. A visitor must not:
- Interfere with service or prevent another person from using it
- Use a bot, scraper, crawler, or other automated collection method
- Attempt unauthorized access to any system or account
- Use site information to harass, threaten, or stalk a person
- Use the content for employment, housing, credit, or insurance decisions
- Violate any applicable local, Wisconsin, or federal law
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
Information from the website or a linked service must not be used to threaten, intimidate, stalk, harass, or discriminate against anyone. Such conduct may also violate law. The Wisconsin DOC Sex Offender Registry exists for lawful public-safety awareness under Wis. Stat. §301.45. Registry information does not authorize vigilantism, employment blacklisting, housing discrimination, or abuse of a listed person.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
Outagamie County Criminal History is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. It does not create consumer reports, credit reports, or official background checks. Its advertising partners do not provide site services intended to evaluate applicants, renters, insurance risks, or credit. Data from the website or any linked tool must not be used to:
- Make another decision regulated by the FCRA
- Determine eligibility for a permit, license, or public program
- Set an insurance premium or assess creditworthiness
- Evaluate a renter or housing applicant
- Make a hiring or firing decision
A lawful FCRA-regulated check must come from an appropriate FCRA-compliant provider or the official channel required for the purpose. Wisconsin DOJ CIB's criminal-history system is governed in part by Wis. Stat. §§165.82-165.84.
5. No Legal Advice
Website content is general information, not legal advice. It cannot determine how an Outagamie County charge, conviction, warrant, sentence, or expungement rule affects a specific person. Obtain advice from a licensed Wisconsin attorney.
6. No Warranties
All services and content are supplied "as is." No warranty is made that:
- An outside search result will be complete or correct
- The pages contain no error, defect, or security weakness
- Website access will always be uninterrupted
- Every item of information is complete, accurate, and current
Charges, dispositions, sealing orders, and expungement actions can change a record. Delays and gaps are possible. Nothing published here is an official statement of an Outagamie County court, sheriff, Wisconsin DOJ, or other public agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
Links may lead to sheriff pages, Wisconsin court portals, government sites, legal resources, and independent search services. Those destinations are outside this site's control. Outagamie County Criminal History is not responsible for their content, prices, privacy practices, terms, accuracy, or availability. Review the destination's rules before use.
8. Intellectual Property
Text, code, graphics, and logos are owned by Outagamie County Criminal History or its content partners. They may not be copied, adapted, distributed, or used to create derivative material without prior written permission.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the maximum extent allowed by law, Outagamie County Criminal History is not liable for damage arising from website use, including reliance on information found here or through a linked service.
10. Indemnification
A user agrees to defend and hold the site harmless from claims, demands, or proceedings caused by that user's conduct or breach of these terms, including related legal fees and costs.
11. Governing Law
Wisconsin law governs these terms. Any dispute tied to website use must be brought in a court located in Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Public Records Law, Wis. Stat. §§19.31-19.39, applies to Wisconsin public authorities and does not make this private site a government record custodian.

13. Cutting Off Access
Access may be suspended, limited, or ended at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.
