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.

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.

The Brawley Police Department, in a public records response, stated that it does not contribute or share data with Accurint or the LexisNexis Public Safety Data Exchange, and reaffirmed this in a public comment on June 18, 2026. The finding establishes Brawley as a paid Accurint Virtual Crime Center subscriber that is not a contributor, a clean example of platform access without data contribution. Brawley's AVCC subscription is separately documented in the city's December 3, 2024 council warrant register.

Oklahoma City Council memo authorizing sole source renewal of AVCC subscription plus Amendment No. 1. The amendment explicitly restricts OKC’s contributed data to authorized consortium members only, prohibiting sharing outside the consortium. The need for such an amendment implies the standard AVCC terms allow broader data access — OKC had to negotiate a restriction that Downers Grove PD claimed did not exist. Contract value $165,608.82 for 2026. Original agreement April 2014.

City of Inglewood City Council agenda item (Feb 24, 2026) approving a five-year LexisNexis agreement for the Police Department's use of the Accurint Virtual Crime Center. Includes the staff report, the LexisNexis "Schedule A — Accurint Virtual Crime Center (Subscription)" for the Inglewood Police Department (term 3/1/2026–2/28/2031; $57,289 Year 1, rising 3%/yr to $64,479; up to 5 Database Interfaces; Jail Booking Search & Report; non-FCRA services), and a Dec 22, 2025 LexisNexis quote listing Community Crime Map as included. The documents describe Accurint as an investigative search platform; they contain no AVCC data-contribution addendum or license clause, and no evidence that Inglewood contributes its RMS data to LexisNexis. Inglewood runs its public crime map via CrimeMapping.com, not LexisNexis Community Crime Map.
