Terms & Conditions

Using Madison County Recent Arrests means accepting these terms. If you do not agree with them, do not use the service. These conditions apply to the reference material, links, and third-party search features made available through the site.

This is a privately owned reference service with no government, sheriff, jail, or corrections affiliation. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers an FCRA-covered service. The service is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency and only helps visitors locate Madison County and North Carolina record resources.


Nature of the Service

Madison County Recent Arrests is not tied to Madison County, the Sheriff’s Office, Madison County Jail, NC DAC, or another public office. It stores no official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, or file a government document.

Links point toward county jail information, court and corrections resources, records custodians, and independent research tools.


Acceptable Use Rules

Visitors must use the service lawfully and without harming people or systems.

  • Do not violate a law or another person’s rights.
  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or intimidate anyone.
  • Do not use information for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another prohibited decision.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access to the site or connected systems.
  • Do not operate bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
  • Do not disrupt access for other visitors.

No Consumer Reports

Madison County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It supplies no background check, credit report, or consumer report. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides screening services. Visitors agree not to use any information for an FCRA-covered purpose.

  • Hiring, firing, or other employment decisions
  • Tenant selection or housing decisions
  • Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-benefit eligibility
  • Any other decision governed by the FCRA

Outside Services and Links

The site links to jail rosters, booking interfaces, sheriff and corrections pages, courts, legal resources, government portals, and private search tools. A link is not an endorsement. The destination controls its content, availability, terms, and data practices, which visitors should review independently.


No Warranties

The service is provided “as is” and “as available.” No warranty is made that content is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, secure, free from defects, or that partner results will be thorough.

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Madison County Sheriff’s Office or another government agency.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access, use, inability to use, or reliance on the service.


Your Duty to Indemnify

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


Ownership of Site Materials

Site text, graphics, logos, design, and code belong to Madison County Recent Arrests or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, altered, or republished without prior written permission, except where law expressly permits.


Changes to These Terms

These conditions may be revised at any time. The new version becomes effective when posted, and continued use after posting means acceptance of the revised terms.


Access May Be Revoked

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


North Carolina Law

North Carolina law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in North Carolina. Public agency records remain governed by applicable law, including North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 132, but that statute does not convert this private service into a public agency.


If a Term Is Invalid

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay effective. The affected provision will be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
