Terms & Conditions

Purpose of the Site

Washington County Busted Mugshots is a private reference guide. It stores no official arrest, jail, booking, or court records. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file a request or court paper for a visitor.

The site points readers toward Washington County and Alabama record resources. Some pages also connect to outside research tools. A link or explanation does not turn this site into the government office or service being described.

Acceptable Use

You agree to use the site in a lawful way that does not harm people, systems, or other visitors.

• Do not violate a law while using the site.
• Do not stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone.
• Do not use site information for a credit, employment, housing, tenant, lending, or insurance decision.
• Do not seek access to an account, server, or data without permission.
• Do not use bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools.
• Do not disrupt the site or interfere with another visitor's access.

No Consumer Reports

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not supply background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports, and neither it nor its advertising partners provides screening services. You agree not to use any site information for hiring or firing, tenant or housing screening, creditworthiness, lending, insurance rates, licensing, permits, government-program eligibility, or any other purpose governed by the FCRA.

Outside Websites

Links may point to jail rosters, booking pages, sheriff and corrections websites, government portals, legal-aid resources, or outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control those sites, their content, privacy practices, data handling, terms, or availability. Review the destination's rules before using it.

Service Without Warranties

The site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent allowed by law, we make no promise that information is accurate, complete, or current, that access will be uninterrupted, that the site has no errors or security flaws, or that a partner search will return a full result.

Custody and public records can change quickly. Nothing on this site is an official statement by the Washington County Sheriff's Office, the jail, a court, or another government agency.

Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site, its owners, and its contributors are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss arising from access to, use of, or inability to use the site or a linked service.

Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the site, its owners, and its contributors from claims, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees caused by your use of the site or your breach of these terms.

Ownership of Site Content

Unless stated otherwise, the site's original text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Washington County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, publish, or modify that material without written permission.

Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms at any time. A new version becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued use after posting means you accept the revised terms.

Ending or Limiting Access

We may restrict, suspend, or end access to all or part of the site at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.

Alabama Law Applies

These terms are governed by Alabama law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Alabama.

If One Term Fails

If a court finds one part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts stay in effect. The affected part will be limited or adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
