Terms & Conditions

Nature of This Website

Foard County Released Inmates is a private reference website. It is not part of the Foard County Sheriff's Office, a receiving jail, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, a court, BOP, ICE, or USMS. The site stores no official jail, release, inmate, parole, probation, or court record. It cannot confirm a person's custody status, release a person, change a record, accept a public-information request, or file a court document.

Editorial pages point readers toward official record custodians, government locators, and legal resources that may apply to a Foard County arrest or later custody path. Some pages also connect visitors with outside research tools. Those directions are provided for reference and do not turn this website into the source, owner, or custodian of any returned record.

Acceptable Use Rules

Use the website only for lawful, respectful purposes. As a condition of access, you agree that you will not:

• violate a federal, Texas, or local law through use of the site;
• use information to stalk, threaten, intimidate, or harass any person;
• make hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another regulated decision from site content;
• attempt to enter accounts, systems, code, or data without authorization;
• deploy bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools against the site; or
• interfere with site operation or another visitor's access.

No Consumer Reports

Foard County Released Inmates is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not furnish background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports. Its advertising and search partners do not provide an FCRA screening service through this site. By using the site, you agree not to rely on its content or linked results for:

• hiring, firing, promotion, or another employment decision;
• tenant selection, housing eligibility, or lease decisions;
• creditworthiness, lending, or insurance rates and eligibility;
• a license, permit, or government-program eligibility decision; or
• any other purpose governed by the FCRA.

Outside Websites and Tools

Links may lead to the Foard County Sheriff, receiving-jail resources, Texas public-information materials, TDCJ, parole or probation offices, court sources, federal locators, legal-aid resources, and independent search services. A link is a convenience, not an endorsement. Foard County Released Inmates does not control an outside site's content, availability, pricing, security, data handling, or terms. Review the destination's own notices before submitting personal information or paying a charge.

Service Provided As Is

The website and all content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without express or implied warranties. No promise is made that:

• information is accurate, complete, or current;
• access will be continuous or uninterrupted;
• the website is free of errors, defects, or security weaknesses; or
• an outside search will return every relevant record.

Custody entries and public records can change quickly. Foard County also may place detainees in an out-of-county receiving jail, so a missing roster name is not an official release statement. Confirm release, transfer, or supervision directly with the government office that created the record.

Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, Foard County Released Inmates, its owners, contributors, and service providers will not be liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or other damages arising from access to the site, inability to use it, reliance on its content, or interaction with a linked service. Any limitation applies only to the extent Texas or other controlling law permits.

Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Foard County Released Inmates, its owners, contributors, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the site, your violation of these terms, or your infringement of another person's rights.

Ownership of Site Material

Unless a source notice states otherwise, the website's original text, graphics, logos, arrangement, and code belong to Foard County Released Inmates or its content partners and are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. You may not copy, republish, distribute, sell, modify, or create a derivative work from that material without prior written permission. Government records reached through outbound links remain subject to their own source rules.

Updates to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A revised version becomes effective when posted on this page, unless the posted text states a later effective date. Continued use after an update means that you accept the revised conditions. Check this page when you return if a change could affect your use.

Restriction or Loss of Access

Access to all or part of the website may be restricted, suspended, or ended at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. This authority includes responses to misuse, security concerns, unlawful conduct, automated collection, or disruption of other visitors.

Texas Law Controls

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute concerning these terms or use of the website must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Texas. References to the Texas Public Information Act, Government Code Chapter 552, describe the official-record request framework; they do not make this private site subject to a government custodian's duties.

If One Term Fails

If a court finds one provision invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect. The affected provision will be limited or adjusted only as much as necessary to make it enforceable while preserving its intended purpose where the law allows.

Questions About These Conditions

Questions about these Terms & Conditions may be sent through the Contact Us page. That contact channel belongs to this private website and cannot answer an official Foard County custody question or accept a government records request.
