Terms & Conditions

By browsing or using this website, you agree to these terms and conditions. If you do not accept them, please stop using the site.

This privately owned site is not affiliated with a government agency, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency, and neither it nor its advertising partners offers FCRA-covered credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening services.


Purpose of the Website

This site is a private reference guide with no government ties. It does not store official Carter County records and cannot confirm custody, free a person, post bond, or file a request for a visitor.

Its pages point toward Carter County and Kentucky jail, inmate, court, and corrections resources. They may also connect visitors with outside research tools.


Acceptable Use

You agree to use the site in a lawful and responsible way. You must not:

  • Break a law through or in connection with the site
  • Use information to stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on site content
  • Attempt access to systems or data without authorization
  • Run automated bots, crawlers, or scrapers
  • Disrupt access or site operation for other visitors

No Consumer Reports

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide background checks, credit reports, consumer reports, or screening services. You agree not to use its content or linked search results for an FCRA-covered decision.

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

Links Are Independent

The site links to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, courts, government portals, legal resources, and outside search services. A link does not endorse a destination. We do not control its content, data practices, terms, or uptime, so review its rules before use.


Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no warranty that information is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, free from bugs or security flaws, or that a partner search will return every relevant result.

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Carter County Sheriff’s Department, Detention Center, Kentucky Department of Corrections, court, or other agency.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent Kentucky law permits, the site, its owners, and its partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to or use of the site.


Your Duty to Indemnify

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


Intellectual Property

Unless stated otherwise, the site’s text, graphics, logo, layout, and code belong to Carter County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, alter, or republish them without written permission.


Revisions to These Terms

We may change these terms at any time. A new version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.


Ending or Limiting Access

We may suspend, restrict, or end access to some or all of the site at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.


Kentucky Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in Kentucky.


Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms continue in force. The affected provision will be limited or adjusted only as much as needed.
