Terms and Conditions

These terms govern access to Houston County Busted Mugshots, a privately operated reference website. By using the website, you agree to these terms and to comply with applicable law.

Private Reference Service

This website is privately owned and has no affiliation with a government body, HCSO, Houston County Jail, TDOC, a court, or a corrections department. It points visitors toward public-record resources and third-party search tools. It is not a private investigation firm and does not provide official records or legal advice.

Acceptable Use

You may use the website only for lawful, personal, informational purposes. You may not interfere with the website, attempt unauthorized access, upload malicious material, harvest data, misrepresent an affiliation, infringe rights, or use information in a manner prohibited by law or these terms.

FCRA Restricted Uses

This website and its advertising or search partners are not consumer reporting agencies under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Information from this website may not be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or any other purpose regulated by the FCRA.

Visitors are responsible for understanding the limits that apply to their use. Official source material can be incomplete, historical, restricted, or changed after a page is viewed.

Outside Links

Links to HCSO, courts, TDOC, federal systems, news sources, or third-party tools are offered for convenience. A link is not an endorsement, a guarantee of availability, or a statement that an outside provider has accurate or current content. The terms and privacy practices of each outside provider govern activity there.

No Warranties

The website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we disclaim warranties of accuracy, completeness, timeliness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and noninfringement. Confirm any record detail with the originating office.

Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, lost data, or loss arising from access to, inability to access, or reliance on the website or an outside link.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the website, its owners, providers, and partners from claims, liabilities, damages, and expenses arising from your use, misuse, violation of these terms, or violation of another person's rights.

Site Materials

The website's text, graphics, logos, design, and code are owned by Houston County Busted Mugshots or its content partners and are protected by applicable law. You may not copy, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from them without written permission, except where law allows.

Term Updates

We may change these terms at any time. Continued use after publication of a revised version means you accept the revised terms. We may also suspend or revoke access when we believe it is necessary to protect the website, users, or legal rights.

Tennessee Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Tennessee, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Tennessee, unless applicable law requires a different forum.

Severability

If a court finds part of these terms unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of that provision.
