Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions govern use of Deschutes County Busted Mugshots. By browsing or using the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, do not use the site.

Deschutes County Busted Mugshots is a private reference service, not a government office, sheriff, jail, corrections department, investigator, or consumer reporting agency. It explains official paths for Deschutes County and Oregon information; it does not provide background checks, consumer reports, or FCRA-covered screening services.


Purpose of the Website

This site is independently operated and has no government affiliation. It does not keep official custody records, cannot confirm a person's custody or release, cannot file documents, and cannot obtain records for a visitor. Oregon agencies administer their own public records under laws including ORS Chapter 192.

The site directs visitors to information about official jail, court, and records resources in Deschutes County and may link to third-party research tools. A booking or arrest is an allegation, not a conclusion about a person's guilt.


Acceptable Use

  • Use the site only in a lawful manner.
  • Do not use information from the site to stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone.
  • Do not make employment, housing, lending, insurance, or similar screening decisions from site information.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access to this site, its providers, or linked services.
  • Do not deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools without written permission.
  • Do not interfere with the site's operation or another visitor's access.

No Consumer Reports or FCRA Use

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Neither this site nor any advertising partner supplies consumer reports, credit reports, or background-screening services. You agree not to use site information for any purpose regulated by the FCRA, including:

  • Hiring, firing, promotion, or another employment decision.
  • Tenant selection, housing decisions, or lease screening.
  • Creditworthiness, lending, insurance eligibility, or insurance pricing.
  • Licensing, permit, or government-program eligibility determinations.
  • Any other purpose covered by FCRA requirements.

Links Beyond This Site

Links may lead to jail rosters, official agency and court pages, records-request portals, legal resources, federal locators, or outside search services. A link is not an endorsement, and we do not control a destination's content, privacy practices, availability, or data accuracy. Review its own terms before using it.


Information Provided As Is

The website is offered as is and as available, without warranties. We do not promise:

  • That any information is accurate, complete, current, or suitable for a particular purpose.
  • That access will be uninterrupted or continuously available.
  • That the site will be free from errors, bugs, vulnerabilities, or interruptions.
  • That an outside partner's search result will be complete or correct.

Custody and court information can change quickly. Nothing here is an official statement by the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office, the Adult Jail, a court, or another public agency.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Deschutes County Busted Mugshots and its operators are not liable for damages or losses arising from use of, inability to use, or reliance on this site or a linked service.


Your Responsibility for Claims

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the site, its operators, and its partners from claims, liabilities, damages, and reasonable legal fees resulting from your use of the site or a breach of these Terms & Conditions.


Site Materials

Unless a separate source identifies otherwise, the site's text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Deschutes County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, modify, or republish them without written permission.

These Terms & Conditions are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon. Any dispute must be brought in a court located in Oregon, unless a mandatory law requires another venue.


Severability
