Terms & Conditions

Use of Madera County Busted Mugshots means acceptance of these terms and conditions. They set the boundaries for access, outside services, legal responsibility, and permitted treatment of information. A visitor who does not agree should stop using the site.

Madera County Busted Mugshots is privately owned and has no government affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners offers FCRA-covered credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening services. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Service

This private reference site has no tie to the Madera County Sheriff’s Office, Madera County Jail, a police department, court, CDCR, or another public body. It stores no official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file a request or court document for a visitor.

The service points to Madera County jail and arrest-record resources, California corrections tools, federal locators, and independent research providers. The government or third party operating each destination remains responsible for its own records and services.


Acceptable Use Rules

Visitors must use the site in a lawful way that does not harm another person, the service, or its infrastructure.

  • Do not violate any applicable law.
  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or target another person.
  • Do not make hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions from site content.
  • Do not seek unauthorized access to a system or account.
  • Do not operate automated bots or scrapers against the site.
  • Do not disrupt access for other visitors.

No Consumer Reports

Madera County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It supplies no credit report, background check, consumer report, or screening product, and neither do its advertising partners through this site. A visitor agrees not to use any information for:

  • Hiring, firing, or another employment decision
  • Tenant selection or housing screening
  • Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

External Sites Set Their Terms

Links may point to government rosters, booking tools, Sheriff or corrections pages, courts, legal resources, news outlets, and outside search services. Madera County Busted Mugshots does not endorse or control those destinations. It is not responsible for their content, data handling, pricing, terms, or availability. Visitors should review each destination’s own policies.


Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent allowed by law, no promise is made about:

  • Accuracy, completeness, or current status
  • Continuous or uninterrupted availability
  • Freedom from errors, defects, or security flaws
  • The scope or quality of partner search results

Custody states and public records can change quickly. Nothing on this private site is an official statement by the Sheriff, jail, court, police, corrections agency, or another government office.


Limits on Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Madera County Busted Mugshots and its operators, partners, and contributors are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance on the site or a linked service.


Your Duty to Indemnify

A visitor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the site and its operators, partners, and contributors from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees caused by that visitor’s use of the service or breach of these terms.


Ownership of Site Materials

Unless a source is credited otherwise, the text, design elements, graphics, logos, and code are owned by Madera County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. They may not be copied, changed, republished, or distributed without prior written permission.


Revisions to These Terms

These terms may be changed at any time. A revised version takes effect when it is posted. Continued use after posting means the visitor accepts the new terms.


Access May Be Restricted

The site may suspend, limit, or end access at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. This right includes action needed to protect the service or enforce these terms.


California Law Applies

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in California.


If One Term Is Invalid

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be adjusted only as much as needed. Every remaining provision will continue in effect.
