Fair Credit Reporting Act restrictions

This is not a consumer report

CurrentPrisonList is not a consumer reporting agency, and the information on this site is not a consumer report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). You may not use the site or its data — in whole or in part — to determine eligibility for employment, housing or tenancy, credit, insurance, licensing, or any other FCRA-regulated purpose. By using the site you certify that you will not do so.

Intellectual property

The underlying booking and roster records originate from public government sources and are not owned by us. However, the site's design, layout, organization, original written content, compilation, and presentation are the property of CurrentPrisonList and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy or reuse these elements except as permitted by these Terms or by law.

Public records and accuracy

The site aggregates publicly available records and may be incomplete, delayed, or inaccurate. The appearance of any person in a record is not evidence of guilt, and all persons are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. For the full accuracy and presumption-of-innocence statement, please review our disclaimer.

No warranty

The site and all information on it are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or that any information is current or correct.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CurrentPrisonList, its owners, and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from your use of — or inability to use — the site or its data, including reliance on any information that proves inaccurate or out of date. Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction with the site is to stop using it.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CurrentPrisonList and its operators from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or connected with your use of the site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.

Changes, governing law, and contact

We may update these Terms from time to time; the "last updated" date above reflects the current version, and your continued use of the site means you accept the revised Terms. These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which the site operator is established, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
