Terms & Conditions

Use of St. Mary's County Recent Arrests means you agree to these terms. If you do not accept every condition, do not use the site.

This is a privately owned site with no affiliation to a government body, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers a service covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The site helps visitors locate St. Mary's County and Maryland custody and public-record resources, but it is neither a private-investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.


Purpose and Limits

This private reference site stores no official records. It cannot confirm custody, release anyone, change a record, or file documents. It points toward local jail and public-record resources and may connect visitors with outside research tools.


Acceptable Use

You may use the site only for lawful purposes. You must not stalk, harass, threaten, seek unauthorized access, operate bots or scrapers, disrupt service, or use site content for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or other regulated decisions.


No Consumer Reports

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and provide no background check, credit report, or consumer report. Neither we nor advertising partners provide screening services. You agree not to use information for hiring or firing, tenant or housing screening, creditworthiness, insurance premiums, licensing, permits, government-program eligibility, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.


Outside Resources

Links can lead to jail rosters, booking feeds, Sheriff and corrections sites, government portals, legal-aid material, and third-party search services. We do not endorse or control their content, data practices, availability, or terms. Review each destination's policies.


Service Provided As Is

The site is supplied “as is” without warranties of accuracy, completeness, currency, continuous operation, security, freedom from errors, or thorough partner results. Custody and records change quickly, and nothing here is an official government statement.


Liability Limits

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


Indemnification

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


Ownership

Site text, graphics, logos, and code belong to St. Mary's County Recent Arrests or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, alter, or republish them without written permission.


Changes and Access

These terms may change at any time and revisions take effect when posted. Access may be restricted or ended at any time, for any reason, without notice.


Maryland Law

Maryland law governs these terms, and disputes must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in Maryland.


Severability

If a provision is invalid or unenforceable, it will be adjusted only as necessary and the remaining terms will continue in effect.
