Terms & Conditions

Private Reference Role

This is a private reference site with no government connection. It stores no official Stone County records and cannot verify custody, release a person, file a document, or act for an agency.

It directs visitors toward official sheriff, court, corrections, and locator resources, and may connect visitors to independent research tools.

Permitted Site Use

Use the site lawfully and with respect for others.

• Do not use the site in violation of law.
• Do not use information to stalk, harass, or threaten another person.
• Do not use material for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or similar screening decisions.
• Do not attempt to obtain unauthorized access to the site or related systems.
• Do not use bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools without permission.
• Do not interfere with the site or another visitor’s access.

FCRA-Prohibited Uses

Stone County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide consumer reports, credit reports, background checks, or screening services, and neither do its advertising partners through this site. Visitors agree not to use any information obtained here for an FCRA-covered purpose.

• Hiring, firing, or promotion decisions.
• Tenant or housing screening.
• Creditworthiness or insurance-premium decisions.
• Licensing, permits, or eligibility for government programs.
• Any other purpose governed by FCRA restrictions.

External Services and Links

Links may lead to jail rosters, booking feeds, sheriff and corrections sites, government portals, legal resources, and outside search services. Their content, data practices, availability, and terms are outside this site’s control. Review the destination’s terms before using it.

Information Provided As Is

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties.

• Accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of information.
• Uninterrupted site access.
• Freedom from errors, bugs, or security flaws.
• Completeness of an independent partner’s results.

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing on this private site is an official statement by the Stone County Sheriff’s Office or another government agency.

Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Stone County Busted Mugshots is not liable for damages arising from use of, inability to use, or reliance on the site or a linked service.

Indemnity

A visitor agrees to defend and hold harmless Stone County Busted Mugshots, its owners, and its partners from claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable legal fees arising from that visitor’s use of the site or breach of these terms.

Site Materials

The site’s text, graphics, logos, code, and design are owned by Stone County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, or modified without written permission, except where law permits otherwise.

Term Changes

These Terms and Conditions may be revised at any time. A revised version applies when it is posted on the site.

Access Restrictions

Access may be limited, suspended, or ended at any time, with or without notice, for any reason permitted by law.

Missouri Law and Venue

These terms are governed by Missouri law, and disputes must be brought in courts within Missouri. RSMo §610.100 governs aspects of arrest and incident reports, while RSMo §407.1150 addresses payment solicited for the removal or correction of published criminal-record information. Neither statute makes this site a public-record custodian or creates a guarantee of access, correction, or removal through this site.

Severability

If a court finds one part of these terms unenforceable, the remaining terms remain in effect. The affected provision will be adjusted only as far as needed to make it enforceable.
