Terms & Conditions

Nature of the Service

This private reference site is independent from all government offices. It stores no official jail, prison, court, or release records. It cannot confirm current custody, release a person, post bail, or file a form or records request for a visitor.

The site points readers toward public agencies and record sources serving Norfolk County. Some pages also connect users with outside research tools operated under their own terms.

Acceptable Use Rules

Use of the site must remain lawful and must not interfere with other visitors or systems. You agree that you will not:

• Violate a law while accessing or using the site.
• Use information to stalk, threaten, intimidate, or harass another person.
• Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on site content.
• Attempt to enter an account, server, or system without authorization.
• Run bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools against the site.
• Disrupt service, overload systems, or impair another visitor’s access.

Fair Credit Reporting Act Limits

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and does not provide background checks, credit reports, consumer reports, or screening services. Its advertising partners do not provide those services through this site. You agree not to use information found here for:

• A decision to hire, fire, promote, or retain a worker.
• Tenant selection or any other housing decision.
• Creditworthiness, lending terms, or insurance pricing.
• Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government benefit.
• Any other decision governed by the FCRA.

Third-Party Links and Tools

Links may lead to release records, sheriff and corrections websites, government portals, legal-aid sources, or outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control an outside operator’s content, data handling, prices, results, or uptime. Review that service’s own terms and privacy policy before use.

Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” No warranty is made regarding:

• The accuracy, completeness, or current status of information.
• Continuous or uninterrupted availability.
• Freedom from errors, defects, or security weaknesses.
• The completeness of a third-party search result.

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing on this site is an official statement from a sheriff, court, corrections department, or other government agency.

Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site and its operators will not be liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to, reliance on, or inability to use the site or a linked service.

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 site or your violation of these terms.

Ownership of Site Materials

Text, graphics, logos, and code are owned by Norfolk County Released Inmates or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, republish, or modify those materials without prior written permission, except where law expressly allows otherwise.

Revisions to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A new version takes effect when it is posted on this page, and continued use means acceptance of the revised terms.

Suspension of Access

We may restrict, suspend, or end access to the site at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.

Massachusetts Governing Law

Massachusetts law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction within Massachusetts.

Severability of Provisions

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