Terms & Conditions

By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the site. The terms govern access to the private Montgomery County records-reference service and its links to outside resources.

This privately owned site has no government affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners offers FCRA-covered services. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Site

Montgomery County Busted Mugshots is a private reference resource. It is not connected with Montgomery County, any sheriff, police department, jail, corrections department, court, or Maryland agency. It stores no official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, or file an agency document. It points users toward government record resources and independent research tools.


Acceptable Use

You agree to use the site lawfully and responsibly.

  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or harm anyone.
  • Do not use information for prohibited screening decisions.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access or bypass security.
  • Do not run bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
  • Do not disrupt the site or interfere with another visitor.
  • Do not violate any applicable law.

No Consumer Reports

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It supplies no consumer report, credit report, or background check, and neither it nor its advertising partners provides screening services. You agree not to use site information for hiring or firing, housing or tenant decisions, creditworthiness, insurance premiums, licensing, government-program eligibility, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.


Outside Links

Links may lead to jail and correction pages, booking feeds, police or sheriff resources, courts, legal information, federal locators, and independent search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control an outside site’s content, availability, prices, terms, or data practices.


No Warranties

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no warranty that information is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or that a partner search will be thorough. Custody and public records can change at any time. Nothing here is an official statement from a Montgomery County or Maryland office.


Liability Limits

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site, its owners, and its partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access, use, inability to use, or reliance on the site or an outside link.


Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold the site, its owners, and its partners harmless from claims, losses, expenses, and reasonable legal fees caused by your use of the service or violation of these terms.


Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, site text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Montgomery County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, republished, or modified without written permission.


Changes and Access

These terms may change at any time, and revised terms take effect when posted. Access may also be limited, suspended, or revoked at any time, for any reason, without notice.


Maryland Law

Maryland law governs these terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute must be brought in a court with jurisdiction in Maryland.


Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. The affected provision will be adjusted only to the minimum extent needed to make it enforceable.
