NO FCRA USE. This privately operated website has no affiliation with a local, state, or federal agency. Neither it nor its advertising partners offers a service intended for credit, employment, insurance, tenant, or other Fair Credit Reporting Act use. Its purpose is to help readers locate official criminal-record resources in Honolulu County and Hawaiʻi. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.
1. What This Website Is
This is a private reference site, independent from government. It stores no official criminal records and cannot retrieve an official record, perform an official check, or submit documents for a visitor.
Its pages identify Honolulu Police Department channels, First Circuit courts, the Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center, and the Hawaiʻi Sex Offender & Other Covered Offender Search, along with separate third-party research tools.
2. Rules for Using This Site
You agree that you will not:
- Break any federal, state, or local law while using this site
- Use information you find here to stalk, harass, or threaten anyone
- Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on content from this site
- Try to break into our systems or gain access you are not supposed to have
- Run bots, scrapers, or automated tools against our pages
- Do anything that slows the site down or blocks other people from using it
3. No Harassment, Stalking, or Discrimination
No one may use information from this site or a linked tool to stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate, or discriminate against another person. Hawaiʻi law restricts misuse of information from the Hawaiʻi Sex Offender & Other Covered Offender Search, and violations can carry criminal penalties. Registry access serves lawful public-safety awareness, never vigilante conduct or prohibited discrimination.
4. We Are Not a Consumer Reporting Agency
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. We do not generate background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports of any kind. Neither we nor our advertising partners provide services built for screening job applicants, reviewing rental applications, calculating insurance rates, or judging creditworthiness. You agree not to use data from this site or any linked tool to:
- Decide whether to hire or fire someone
- Screen potential renters or housing applicants
- Judge creditworthiness or set insurance premiums
- Determine who qualifies for licenses, permits, or government programs
- Do anything else that falls under FCRA rules
A check required for a regulated purpose must come through the Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center or a service that complies with the FCRA.
5. No Legal Advice
Nothing here is legal advice. General explanations of Honolulu County records cannot determine how a charge, conviction, warrant, or Hawaiʻi expungement rule applies to one person. That requires advice from a licensed Hawaiʻi attorney.
6. No Warranties
Everything on this site is provided "as is." We do not guarantee that:
- The information here is accurate, complete, or current at any given time
- The site will stay up and running without interruptions
- Our pages are free of errors, bugs, or security holes
- Results from our partner search tools will be thorough or accurate
Criminal records change all the time - charges are filed, dismissed, sealed, and expunged. We try to keep up, but gaps are unavoidable. Nothing on this site should be treated as an official statement from a court, sheriff, or government agency.
7. Third-Party Services and Links
We link to sheriff's office sites, court portals, state agency pages, legal aid organizations, and outside search services across this site. Clicking one of those links moves you off our platform and onto one we have no control over. We are not responsible for their content, how they handle data, what they charge, or whether their site stays online. Check their terms before using them.
8. Intellectual Property
Honolulu County Criminal History or its content partners own the text, graphics, logos, and code displayed here. Written permission is required to copy, distribute, alter, or create derivative material from that content.
9. Limits on Our Liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for damages that come from using this site - including decisions made based on information found here or through any linked service.
10. Indemnification
You agree to hold us harmless from any claim, legal action, or demand that stems from how you used this site or from breaking these terms. That includes covering our legal fees and related costs.
11. Governing Law
Hawaiʻi law governs these terms, including applicable HRS Chapter 480 consumer protections. Any dispute arising from use of the website must be brought in a court located in Hawaiʻi.
12. Changes to These Terms
We can update these terms whenever we see fit. New terms go into effect the moment they appear on this page.
13. Cutting Off Access
We can limit or block your access to this site at any time, for any reason, with no warning.
14. Severability
If a court rules that any part of these terms is invalid or unenforceable, the rest stand. The problem section gets adjusted only as much as needed to make it work.
