Terms & Conditions

These terms govern access to Washington County Recent Arrests, a privately operated reference for locating public agency and custody resources. Using the site means that you agree to these conditions.

This private site is not part of Washington County government and is not affiliated with any sheriff, jail, court, police department, corrections agency, or other public office.


Acceptable Use

You may use the site for lawful personal research and to locate official public-record sources. You may not disrupt the service, bypass access controls, introduce malicious code, scrape it in a way that burdens its systems, impersonate another person, or use information to threaten, harass, stalk, or harm anyone. Access may be restricted or revoked when these conditions are violated.


FCRA Restrictions

Washington County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Neither site content nor results from a linked tool may be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or any other purpose governed by the FCRA. Users are responsible for understanding and following all laws that apply to their conduct.


Outside Links and Tools

Links may lead to WCSO, Marion County Detention Center, Kentucky courts, Kentucky corrections, federal locators, news publishers, or independent search services. A link is provided for convenience and does not endorse its operator or content. Outside operators set their own availability, fees, terms, accuracy standards, and privacy practices.


No Warranties

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” No promise is made that a roster, arrest record, photograph, link, search result, or contact detail is complete, accurate, current, uninterrupted, or fit for a particular purpose. Arrest data may change after release, transfer, a court ruling, correction, sealing, or expungement. Verify important facts with the office that created the record.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent Kentucky law permits, the site’s owners and operators are not liable for losses arising from use of, inability to use, or reliance on the site or an outside service. This includes indirect, incidental, consequential, and similar damages. Some legal limits may not apply in every situation.


Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold harmless the site’s owners and operators from claims, costs, or liabilities caused by your unlawful use, your violation of these terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.


Content Ownership

Original site text, design, organization, and branding are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. Government records and third-party material remain subject to the rights and rules of their source owners. These terms do not transfer ownership or grant permission to copy protected site material beyond lawful personal use.


Changes and Termination

These terms may be revised when services, laws, or practices change. A revised version takes effect when posted. The site may suspend, limit, or end access to any feature or user when needed to protect the service, comply with law, or enforce these terms.


Kentucky Law and Severability

Kentucky law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. Failure to enforce a provision once does not waive the right to enforce it later.
