Terms of Use

What the Service Is

This is a private reference service. It stores no official jail, booking, arrest, warrant, court, or corrections records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, file a case, or change an agency record. It points to public sources such as the Brown County Sheriff’s Office, the Schuyler Recent Bookings feed, the Brown County court directory, IDOC, and federal locators.

References to Illinois arrest information follow the public-record framework in 5 ILCS 140/2.15, but the service does not promise that a photo, booking card, or source page exists for every person.

Rules for Using the Pages

Use the service lawfully and in a way that does not put another person or the network at risk.

• Do not violate a law or court order while using the pages.
• Do not stalk, threaten, harass, intimidate, or expose another person.
• Do not use record information for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another prohibited screening decision.
• Do not attempt to bypass authentication, interfere with security, or gain unauthorized access.
• Do not run bots, scrapers, or automated requests that burden the pages or a linked provider.
• Do not disrupt availability for other readers or misrepresent an official relationship.

No Consumer Reporting Service

Brown County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not create background reports, credit reports, or consumer reports, and neither it nor its advertising partners provides a screening service. You agree not to use information from these pages or a linked tool for:

• Hiring, firing, promotion, or other employment decisions.
• Tenant, housing, or accommodation screening.
• Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing.
• Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility decisions.
• Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA or similar consumer-reporting rule.

Outside Links and Tools

The pages link to Sheriff and jail sites, booking feeds, courts, IDOC, BOP, ICE, legal resources, news outlets, and outside search tools. Those destinations are independent. Brown County Busted Mugshots does not endorse their content, accuracy, privacy practices, prices, uptime, or results. A link to an official source is a routing aid, not a guarantee that the agency has published a complete record.

Review the destination’s terms before submitting a name or other information. A third-party search box may be operated by a provider with separate data practices.

Information Provided As Is

All pages and links are supplied “as is” and “as available.” No warranty is made that the information is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, secure, free of errors, or suitable for a particular purpose. No promise is made that a partner search will return every result or that an agency page will remain online.

• Brown and Schuyler custody data can change or lag.
• Charges at booking are allegations and may change in court.
• A missing card does not prove release, dismissal, or innocence.
• News and third-party copies may be historical or incomplete.

Nothing on these pages is an official statement from a Sheriff, jail, court, corrections department, or other government agency.

Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Brown County Busted Mugshots and its owners, contributors, vendors, and partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to, inability to access, or reliance on the service or an outside link.

Your Responsibility to Protect Us

You agree to defend and hold harmless Brown County Busted Mugshots, its owners, contributors, service providers, and partners from claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and costs, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your use of the service, your violation of these terms, or your misuse of record information.

Ownership of Site Material

Unless a separate source is identified, the text, design, logos, layout, and code used for Brown County Busted Mugshots belong to the service or its content partners. You may read and link to the pages for lawful personal reference. Do not copy, republish, distribute, modify, sell, or create a competing automated collection without written permission or a legal right that applies.

Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A new version takes effect when posted, unless a later effective date is stated. Continued use after the change means you accept the revised terms.

Suspension or Revocation of Access

Access may be limited, suspended, or blocked at any time and for any reason, with or without notice. This includes conduct that burdens the service, violates these terms, threatens another person, or attempts unauthorized access.

Illinois Law and Venue

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without applying conflict-of-law rules that would require another jurisdiction’s law. To the extent a dispute may be filed in court, the parties agree to the jurisdiction and venue of a court located in Illinois, subject to applicable law.

If a Provision Fails

If a court finds one part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. The affected language will be narrowed or adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable while preserving the original purpose.

Questions About the Terms

Questions about these Terms of Use may be sent through the Contacts page. Questions about custody, booking photos, warrants, cases, or release must go to the responsible Brown, Schuyler, court, state, federal, or immigration office.
