Terms & Conditions

Purpose of the Website

This is a private reference website, not a branch of any government office. We do not store official arrest, booking, jail, court, or corrections records. We cannot confirm whether a person is in custody, arrange a release, change a charge, file a court paper, or submit an open-records request on a visitor’s behalf.

The site explains where Hickman County and Kentucky agencies publish or maintain inmate and jail information. It also provides links to government sources and outside research tools. Each office or service controls its own records, policies, access limits, and results.

Acceptable Use Rules

• Use the website only in ways permitted by applicable law.
• Do not use information found here to stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone.
• Do not rely on site content for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or other eligibility decisions.
• Do not try to enter accounts, servers, data, or restricted areas without authorization.
• Do not operate bots, scrapers, crawlers, or automated collection tools against the site.
• Do not interfere with normal operation or prevent other visitors from using the website.

Fair Credit Reporting Act Limits

Hickman County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. We do not create or provide background checks, credit reports, consumer reports, or screening services. Our advertising partners do not supply those services through this website. By using the site, you agree not to use its content or results for any FCRA-covered purpose, including:

• deciding whether to hire, retain, promote, or dismiss a worker;
• evaluating a tenant, lease application, or housing request;
• setting credit eligibility, lending terms, or insurance premiums;
• deciding eligibility for a license, permit, or government program; or
• making any other decision governed by the FCRA.

Third-Party Links and Services

Pages may link to jail rosters, booking sources, sheriff and corrections websites, government portals, legal-aid resources, and independent search services. Those destinations are operated by others. We do not control or accept responsibility for their content, accuracy, availability, security, or treatment of visitor data. A link does not mean that we endorse the destination. Review each outside provider’s terms and privacy practices before using it.

Service Provided As Is

The website, its content, and its links are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the extent allowed by law, we make no express or implied promise concerning:

• the accuracy, completeness, or current status of information;
• continuous or uninterrupted website availability;
• the absence of errors, defects, bugs, or security weaknesses; or
• the completeness or quality of a search partner’s results.

Custody status and public records can change without notice. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Hickman County Sheriff’s Office, Fulton County Detention Center, a court, or any government agency. Verify important information with the office that created or maintains the record.

Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Hickman County Recent Arrests and its owners, operators, and partners will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance on this website or an outside service linked from it.

Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Hickman County Recent Arrests, its owners, operators, and partners from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the website, your misuse of its information, or your violation of these Terms & Conditions.

Ownership of Site Materials

Unless a page states otherwise, the original text, graphics, logos, design elements, and code on this website belong to Hickman County Recent Arrests or the relevant content partner. You may not reproduce, distribute, republish, sell, or modify those materials without prior written permission. Rights in government records and linked third-party material remain with their respective owners.

Updates to These Conditions

We may revise these Terms & Conditions at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued use after publication of a change means that you accept the updated conditions.

Suspension or Loss of Access

We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to some or all of the website at any time, for any reason, and without prior notice. This right includes action taken to protect the site, its visitors, its systems, or third parties.

Kentucky Law Governs

These Terms & Conditions are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute relating to the website or these terms must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in Kentucky.

If One Term Is Invalid

If a court finds one part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, all remaining provisions will continue in effect. The affected provision will be limited or adjusted only to the minimum extent needed to make it valid and enforceable.
