Terms & Conditions

Nature of the Resource

This is a private reference resource. It stores no official government record and cannot verify custody, authorize a release, post bond, or submit documents to an agency or court.

Its content directs visitors to publicly available Pendleton County and West Virginia record pathways and may connect visitors with independent research tools. A linked service remains responsible for its own material and operations.

Permitted Use

Use the resource lawfully and with respect for other people and systems.

• Do not violate a law while using the resource.
• Do not use information to stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone.
• Do not attempt unauthorized access to the resource or a linked service.
• Do not deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools without written permission.
• Do not interfere with the resource’s availability or another visitor’s use.
