Terms & Conditions

Using this site means that you accept these terms. If you do not agree with them, do not use the site or its tools.

This privately owned site has no government, sheriff, jail, police, court, or corrections affiliation. Neither it nor its advertising partners provides credit, employment, insurance, housing, or other FCRA-covered services. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Site

This is a private reference resource for locating Mitchell County and Iowa custody, booking, court, and corrections sources. It stores no official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file a request with an agency for a visitor.

Pages point toward official records offices and may connect visitors with outside research tools. Those destinations operate separately.


Acceptable Use

Access is conditioned on lawful, responsible conduct.

  • Do not break any law while using the site.
  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person.
  • Do not use information for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another regulated decision.
  • Do not attempt access to systems or data without authorization.
  • Do not operate bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools.
  • Do not impair the service or another visitor's use.

FCRA Use Is Prohibited

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide background checks, consumer reports, or credit reports, and neither the site nor its advertising partners offers screening services. Users agree not to rely on site information for:

  • Hiring, retention, promotion, or termination decisions
  • Tenant selection or any housing decision
  • Creditworthiness or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

Outside Links

Links may lead to sheriff and police pages, court and corrections systems, federal locators, legal resources, news outlets, and external search tools. A link is not an endorsement. This site is not responsible for a destination's content, uptime, security, pricing, or data practices. Review its own terms before use.


No Warranties

The site and its content are provided “as is.” No warranty is made that:

  • Information is complete, accurate, or current
  • Access will always be uninterrupted
  • The service is free of errors or security flaws
  • An outside partner will return complete results

Custody status and government records can change quickly. Nothing on the site is an official statement from a sheriff or another government agency.


Liability Limits

To the fullest extent Iowa law permits, the site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, or other damages arising from access to, inability to use, or reliance on the site or an outside resource.


Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, losses, and reasonable legal costs caused by your use of the service or your breach of these terms.


Intellectual Property

Unless stated otherwise, the text, graphics, logo, and code belong to Mitchell County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, or modified without written permission.


Changes to Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A new version takes effect when posted, and later use means acceptance of the revised terms.


Access May End

Access may be limited, suspended, or revoked at any time, for any reason, and without prior notice.


Iowa Governing Law

Iowa law governs these terms. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in Iowa.


Severability

If a court finds one part invalid, the rest remains effective. The invalid part will be adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
