Terms & Conditions

Purpose and Private Status

This is a private reference site with no government ties. It stores no official jail, court, inmate, or release record and cannot confirm custody, release a person, or file a request or court document for a visitor.

The pages point toward official Big Stone County, receiving-jail, Minnesota DOC, court, federal, and immigration resources. Some pages also connect visitors with independent search tools governed by their own terms.

Acceptable Use Rules

By using the site, you agree to act lawfully and avoid conduct that harms another person or the service.

• Do not use the service in violation of any law.
• Do not use information to stalk, threaten, or harass a person.
• Do not use content for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another regulated eligibility decision.
• Do not attempt to enter restricted systems or accounts.
• Do not operate bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
• Do not interfere with access or service for other visitors.

No Consumer Reports

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and provides no background check, credit report, or consumer report. Its advertising partners do not provide screening services through this site. You agree not to use information obtained here for:

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

Outside Links and Services

Links may lead to release records, sheriff and corrections systems, government portals, legal-help resources, or independent search providers. A link does not make us responsible for the outside service’s content, privacy practices, data handling, or availability. Review that service’s own terms before using it.

Service Provided As Is

All content and access are provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no guarantee about:

• Accuracy, completeness, or current status
• Continuous access without interruption
• Freedom from errors, bugs, or security weaknesses
• Coverage or completeness of a partner’s search results

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement from Big Stone County, a sheriff, a jail, a court, or another government agency.

Limits on Liability

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

Your Duty to Indemnify

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

Ownership of Site Materials

Site text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Big Stone County Released Inmates or its content partners unless stated otherwise. They may not be copied, distributed, republished, or modified without written permission, apart from uses allowed by law.

Future Term Changes

These terms may be revised at any time. A new version takes effect when it is posted on this page.

Suspension of Access

Access may be restricted, suspended, or ended at any time and for any reason, with or without advance notice.

Minnesota Law Applies

These terms are governed by the laws of Minnesota. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in Minnesota.

Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms continue in effect. The affected provision will be limited or adjusted only as much as needed.
