Terms & Conditions

Nature of the Service

This service is an informational reference. It does not store official rosters, issue records, confirm custody, release anyone, or file documents. It directs users toward official Nicollet County, Minnesota, and federal resources and may offer access to third-party research tools.

Acceptable Use

Use the service lawfully and with respect for other people and the systems that make the service available.

• Do not use information to stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person.
• Do not use the service to make prohibited credit, employment, housing, lending, insurance, or similar decisions.
• Do not attempt to access accounts, servers, or data without authorization.
• Do not deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated tools that burden the service.
• Do not interfere with another person's access or violate applicable law.

FCRA Restriction

Nicollet County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency. It does not provide background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports, and neither it nor its advertising partners provides a screening service. You agree not to use information from this service for any purpose regulated by the FCRA.

• Hiring, firing, promotion, or another work decision.
• Tenant selection, housing eligibility, or lease decisions.
• Creditworthiness, insurance premiums, or lending decisions.
• Licensing, permits, public benefits, or government-program eligibility.
• Any other consumer-reporting use covered by federal or state law.

Links and External Tools

Links may lead to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, booking feeds, court portals, legal resources, and outside search services. Those destinations operate independently. Their content, privacy practices, availability, and terms are their own, and a link is not an endorsement.

No Warranties

The service is provided “as is” and “as available.” No warranty is made that any information is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or sufficient for a particular need.

• Government custody status and record details can change without notice.
• External websites can be unavailable, delayed, or altered.
• Technical issues and security risks cannot be eliminated completely.
• Outside search results may be incomplete or differently scoped from official records.

Nothing here is an official statement by a sheriff's office, jail, court, or government agency.

Liability Limits

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the service and its operators are not liable for damages arising from use of, inability to use, or reliance on the service or an external link.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the service, its operators, and its partners from claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the service or a violation of these terms.

Intellectual Property

Original text, graphics, logos, and code on this service belong to Nicollet County Busted Mugshots or the applicable content partner. They may not be copied, distributed, or modified without written permission except where law allows.

Changes to Terms

These terms may be changed at any time. Updated terms take effect when they are posted on this page.

Access Restrictions

Access may be limited, suspended, or ended at any time, with or without notice, for any reason permitted by law.

Minnesota Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota. Any dispute must be brought in a court located within Minnesota when that requirement is enforceable.
