Terms & Conditions

These terms govern use of Garrett County Recent Arrests. By visiting or using the site, you agree to follow them. If you do not accept the terms, stop using the site and its search tools.

This privately owned site is not tied to Garrett County, any sheriff, jail, court, or corrections agency. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers FCRA-covered credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening services.


Nature of the Site

Garrett County Recent Arrests is a private reference resource. It stores no official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file documents with GCSO, the detention center, Maryland DPSCS, or a court.

Its pages point readers toward county arrest logs, custody resources, court records, and outside research tools. Those sources remain responsible for their own information.


Acceptable Use

Use must be lawful and must respect other people and the operation of the service.

  • Do not use the site while breaking any law.
  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person.
  • Do not make hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions from site content.
  • Do not seek unauthorized access to any system or account.
  • Do not operate bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
  • Do not disrupt access for other visitors.

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 do its advertising partners. You agree not to use information from the site or its linked tools for an FCRA-covered purpose.

  • Hiring, firing, or other employment decisions
  • Tenant or housing screening
  • Creditworthiness or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other decision regulated by the FCRA

Outside Links

Links may reach GCSO booking pages, jail resources, Maryland DPSCS, courts, legal-aid sources, federal locators, and private search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control the destination’s content, privacy practice, data handling, terms, or availability, so review its rules before use.


No Warranties

The site and all content are supplied “as is” and “as available.” We do not warrant accuracy, completeness, currency, uninterrupted access, freedom from errors or security flaws, or the scope of partner search results.

Custody and public-record status can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Garrett County Sheriff’s Office, a jail, a court, or another government agency.


Liability Limits

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


Your Indemnity

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


Intellectual Property

Unless stated otherwise, site text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Garrett County Recent Arrests or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, alter, or republish them without written permission.


Changes to Terms

We may revise these terms at any time. A revised version takes effect when it is posted, and continued use means acceptance of that version.


Access Restrictions

Access may be suspended, limited, or ended at any time, for any reason, and without prior notice.


Maryland Law

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


Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. The affected provision will be adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
