- Contributing Agency Agreements
- Signed contracts, Schedule A addenda, and AVCC XML Addendums in which a law enforcement agency formally agrees to contribute data to PSDEX. These contain the specific legal language — irrevocable licenses, data contribution obligations — that confirm an agency is feeding data to LexisNexis. Start here.
- Non-Contributing Agency Agreements
- Documents for agencies that have explicitly opted out or hold read-only access — including "NO DATA CONTRIBUTIONS" addenda and contracts limited to querying only. Important context for understanding who resisted the system and how.
- Public Safety Policies
- Department-level policies on data sharing, surveillance, and LexisNexis use. Useful for identifying agencies whose published policies may conflict with their documented data-sharing behavior — a key signal of sanctuary bypass.
- Audit Records
- Internal records of who accessed PSDEX data and how. Multiple public records requests indicate that agencies cannot audit this once data enters the system — which is why this tab may remain empty.
- City Council Meetings
- City and county council packets, votes, and resolutions approving or discussing LexisNexis contracts. Often the only public record of when and how a jurisdiction entered the PSDEX network.
- Law Enforcement Consortiums
- Documents from AVCC/PSDEX consortium bodies — governance minutes, member-agency joinder agreements, and inter-agency MOUs. Consortiums are regional networks where a lead agency holds the master contract and smaller agencies join through joinder agreements. These records often name member agencies not discoverable any other way.
- Inter-Agency MOUs
- Memoranda of Understanding, joinder agreements, and inter-agency contracts that define the legal structure of data sharing between agencies and consortiums. These establish what flows where and under what terms.
- Integrations with Vendors
- Technical and contractual documentation of how LexisNexis connects to other law enforcement systems — RMS, CAD, VINE, N-DEx. These integrations are the on-ramps: how data leaves local agency systems and enters the PSDEX pipeline.
- State Cooperative Documents
- Statewide cooperative purchasing contracts that let any state government entity procure LexisNexis products without a separate competitive bid. These dramatically expand the number of agencies in the system, often without a local council vote.
- Data Access
- Documents describing who has access to PSDEX data and under what terms — subscriber agreements, access logs, and records identifying which federal, military, or commercial entities are permitted to query the system.

The Austin Regional Intelligence Center's 2024 Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement enumerates the full signed roster of about 25 Central Texas partner agencies in the fusion center whose Accurint Virtual Crime Center access Austin PD procures. The charter does not name LexisNexis; it establishes governance, funding, and a data-sharing framework that authorizes dissemination to federal Information Sharing Environment participants. Obtained via the Austin ISD public records response, which stated the district reaches LexisNexis only through ARIC and that ARIC maintains all access configuration and data. The roster includes three school-district police departments and five university or college police departments.
Full MOU text for San Joaquin County Public Safety Data Exchange Consortium obtained from Lathrop city council agenda packet. Two-tier structure: Participating Agency (contributes RMS/CAD/JMS data) vs Associate Member (read-only). All Participating Agencies must execute LexisNexis Consortium Sub-Agency Addendum. Data explicitly shared with 'other AVCC nodes throughout the United States.' 5-year contract, $517,096 total. Year 1 ($120K) via HSGP grant.
Executed AVCC XML Addendum — Consortium Sub-Agency joining Redlands PD to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Office-led AVCC consortium (SBCS-AVCC). Recorded in the Redlands city clerk system as 'Addendum to MOU County LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime software' (doc 109A-2023 / 209A-2023, dated 11/7/2023; Laserfiche doc id 666630). NOTABLE FOR WHAT IT OMITS: Unlike the CISC (Colorado) consortium addendum, which lets a member share its Customer Data Contributions only with other consortium agencies and treats sharing into the national PSDEX pool as a separate, initialed, revocable opt-in, this SBCS addendum provides no consortium-only option. An agency that joins contributes to the national Public Safety Data Exchange automatically. This makes SBCS-AVCC the first consortium add-on in the tracker where consortium membership and national contribution are inseparable — a council approving a 'regional data-sharing' MOU is in fact approving national contribution with no toggle to keep it local.
