Terms & Conditions

These Terms and Conditions govern use of Fayette County Busted Mugshots. By accessing the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the site or its search features.

Fayette County Busted Mugshots is privately owned and is not affiliated with a government body, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners provides a consumer-reporting service, private-investigation service, or FCRA-covered screening service. Information may not be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-regulated purpose.


Nature of the service

This site is a private reference resource. It does not hold official Fayette County Jail, sheriff, court, or Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction records, and it cannot verify custody, release a person, or file a document with an agency or court.

Content may link readers to official Fayette County custody and records paths and to independent research tools. A government record request remains governed by the responsible office's procedures, including the Fayette County Sheriff's Office process under Ohio Revised Code ยง 149.43.


Permitted use

Use the site lawfully and in a way that respects other people, public systems, and the service itself.

  • Do not violate a law while using the site or its links.
  • Do not use information to stalk, threaten, harass, or intimidate another person.
  • Do not make a credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or other prohibited FCRA-regulated decision from site material.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access to the site, a linked system, or its accounts.
  • Do not use bots, scrapers, or similar automated collection methods without permission.
  • Do not interfere with the site's operation or another visitor's access.

FCRA use is prohibited

Fayette County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The site does not provide consumer reports, background checks, credit reports, or screening services, and neither do its advertising partners through this site. You agree not to use content or a linked tool for a purpose regulated by the FCRA.

  • Hiring, firing, promotion, or other work decisions.
  • Tenant, housing, or rental decisions.
  • Creditworthiness determinations or insurance-pricing decisions.
  • Licensing, permit, or government-program eligibility decisions.
  • Any other decision covered by the FCRA or similar screening rules.

Outside websites

Links may lead to jail rosters, official public-records pages, sheriff and corrections sites, court portals, legal resources, and outside search services. Those services are separately operated. A link does not make us responsible for their content, privacy practices, availability, or terms, and it is not an endorsement.


Service provided as is

The site is offered as is and as available. We make no warranty that content or linked material will be current, complete, accurate, uninterrupted, secure, error free, or suitable for a particular purpose.

  • Agency details, addresses, and procedures may change without notice.
  • Site access may be interrupted or unavailable.
  • Technical errors, bugs, and security weaknesses may occur.
  • Outside search results may be incomplete, delayed, or incorrect.

Custody and public-record status can change quickly. Nothing on this site is an official statement by FCSO, the Fayette County Jail, a court, or another public agency.


Limits of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Fayette County Busted Mugshots and its operators are not liable for losses or damages arising from site use, inability to use the site, reliance on site material, or reliance on an outside link or service.


Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Fayette County Busted Mugshots and its operators from claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the site or from a breach of these Terms and Conditions.


Intellectual property

The site's original text, design elements, logo, graphics, and code belong to Fayette County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, modify, or republish them without prior written permission, except as the law allows.

We may update these Terms and Conditions at any time. Changes take effect when posted on this page, so review the terms periodically.


Access restrictions

We may limit, suspend, or end access to the site at any time, with or without notice, when permitted by law.


Ohio law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio. Any dispute must be brought in a court within Ohio that has jurisdiction.


Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. The affected provision will be enforced only to the extent permitted by law.
