Terms & Conditions

Accessing or using Montgomery County Recent Arrests means that you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you do not accept every term stated here, do not use the site.

Montgomery County Recent Arrests is privately owned and has no affiliation with any government body, sheriff, jail, police agency, or corrections department. It helps readers locate Montgomery County and Maryland custody and arrest-record resources. Neither this site nor its advertising partners is a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency, and neither offers services for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another use regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act.


Nature of the Service

This private reference site stores no official record. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, or file a record request, court paper, or agency document for a visitor.

Its pages point toward Montgomery County booking data, DOCR and court resources, and independently operated research tools.


Permitted Site Use

  • Do not use the site to violate any law.
  • Do not stalk, threaten, or harass another person.
  • Do not use site information for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions.
  • Do not attempt access without authorization.
  • Do not operate bots, crawlers, or scrapers.
  • Do not interfere with another visitor’s access.

FCRA Uses Are Forbidden

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA and provides no background check, credit report, consumer report, or screening service. Advertising partners do not provide those services through this site. You agree not to use information found here for:

  • Hiring, firing, or other employment decisions
  • Tenant or housing screening
  • Creditworthiness or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

Independent Destinations

Links may lead to booking feeds, DOCR, sheriff and police pages, government portals, legal-help resources, or independent search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control those sites, their data practices, content, or availability, so review their own terms.


Service Without Warranties

The site and its content are supplied “as is” and without a promise of:

  • Accuracy, completeness, or current status
  • Continuous, uninterrupted access
  • Freedom from errors, bugs, or security flaws
  • Complete results from a search partner

Custody and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement from DOCR, the Sheriff’s Office, MCPD, a court, or any government agency.


Liability Boundaries

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site and its operators are not liable for damages arising from access, use, or inability to use the site.


Your Duty to Indemnify

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


Ownership of Site Materials

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Montgomery County Recent Arrests or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, or modify them without written permission.


Changes Take Effect on Posting

We may revise these terms at any time. A new version takes effect when posted here.


Access May Be Revoked

We may limit, suspend, or block access at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.


Maryland Law Applies

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


Terms Remain Severable

If one provision is invalid or unenforceable, the rest stay in effect. The affected part will be adjusted only as much as needed.
