Legal Notice & Terms of Use

Epstein Files Search is an independent, non-commercial research tool that indexes publicly available documents from the Jeffrey Epstein legal proceedings. We provide a search interface to help journalists, researchers, and the public navigate these public records.

We do not host original documents. All documents are sourced from official public releases including:

• U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) FOIA releases
• U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (SDNY) public filings
• FBI Vault public releases
• Other official government sources

This website is not affiliated with any government agency, law enforcement organization, legal proceeding, or any party involved in the Epstein cases. We are an independent project providing public access to public records.

For official information, please visit:

• DOJ Epstein Library (Epstein Files Transparency Act)
• DOJ: United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell
• FBI Vault: Jeffrey Epstein

This website is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. We make no representations about the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of the information displayed.

OCR Limitations: Many documents have been processed using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. This process may introduce errors in the extracted text. Always refer to the original PDF documents for authoritative content.

AI-Generated Summaries: Document summaries are generated using artificial intelligence and may contain errors or misinterpretations. They are provided for convenience only and should not be cited as authoritative.

We are not responsible for how users interpret or use this information. This archive is intended for legitimate research, journalism, and public interest purposes only.

By using this website, you agree to:

• Use the archive only for lawful purposes
• Not harass, threaten, or defame any individual mentioned in documents
• Not use automated tools to mass-download or scrape content
• Not attempt to circumvent rate limits or security measures
• Not republish content in a way that misrepresents its source or context

Violation of these terms may result in IP blocking and reporting to relevant authorities.
