Terms & Conditions

Nature of the Service

This is a private reference site, not a public office. It does not keep official Ashland County booking records, jail records, court files, or Wisconsin DOC records. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, file a document, or make an agency decision.

The site points readers toward public offices, court systems, custody locators, and third-party research tools. An external link does not turn this private site into the source or custodian of the underlying record.

Acceptable Use

Use the site lawfully and with respect for others. You agree not to:

• Use the site in violation of a law or regulation.
• Use information to stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person.
• Use information for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or any similar decision.
• Attempt unauthorized access to the site, its systems, or another person’s data.
• Use automated bots, scrapers, or other tools to collect site content without permission.
• Interfere with the availability or security of the site for other visitors.

FCRA Restrictions

Ashland County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and it does not provide consumer reports, credit reports, background checks, or screening services. Advertising partners and linked search tools are not authorized through this site to provide such services. You agree not to use site content or a linked result for a purpose regulated by the FCRA.

• Hiring, firing, promotion, or other employment decisions
• Tenant, housing, or lodging screening
• Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance-pricing decisions
• Licensing, permits, public-benefit eligibility, or a similar eligibility determination
• Any other use restricted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act

Third-Party Links

The site may link to Sheriff and corrections pages, court portals, jail contacts, state or federal locators, legal resources, and outside search services. Those destinations are independently controlled. We do not endorse them or accept responsibility for their content, privacy practices, data handling, availability, or terms. Review the destination’s own rules before using it.

No Warranties

The site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we make no warranty about:

• The accuracy, completeness, or currency of site content
• Uninterrupted or error-free availability
• The absence of bugs, security weaknesses, or other technical defects
• The scope, quality, or correctness of a partner’s search result

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing here is an official statement by Ashland County Sheriff, a jail, a police department, a court, Wisconsin DOC, or another government body.

Liability Limits

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Ashland County Busted Mugshots and its owners, contributors, and service providers are not liable for damages arising from or related to use of, inability to use, or reliance on the site or an external resource.

Your Responsibility

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Ashland County Busted Mugshots and its owners, contributors, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the site or violation of these Terms & Conditions.

Intellectual Property

Unless a separate notice says otherwise, the site’s text, graphics, design, logos, and code are owned by Ashland County Busted Mugshots or its content partners and are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. You may not copy, distribute, alter, or create derivative works from that material without written permission, except where law permits.

Updates to These Terms

We may revise these Terms & Conditions at any time. A revised version becomes effective when posted. Continued use after posting means you accept the revised terms.

Access May Be Restricted

We may limit, suspend, or end access to the site at any time, with or without notice, for any reason permitted by law.

Wisconsin Law

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

Severability

If a court finds part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. The affected provision will be interpreted or adjusted only to the extent needed to make it enforceable where possible.
