Terms & Conditions

Use of Rock Island County Released Inmates is subject to these terms. By accessing the site, you agree to them. If you do not accept every term, discontinue use.

This privately owned site is unaffiliated with any government body, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. It is not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers FCRA-covered services for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant screening. Its purpose is to direct readers toward Rock Island County and Illinois custody-record resources.


Nature of the Website

Rock Island County Released Inmates is a private reference. It stores no official jail, court, IDOC, federal, or immigration record. It cannot verify custody, order a release, post bond, or file a document with an agency.

The site points to public record offices, official locators, and independent research tools. A link or explanation does not make this site the owner or issuer of the underlying record.


Acceptable Use Rules

Visitors must use the site lawfully and without harming others or the service.

  • Do not violate a law while using the site.
  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or intimidate anyone.
  • Do not use information for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access to any account, server, or system.
  • Do not operate bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
  • Do not interfere with the site or another visitor’s access.

No Consumer Reports

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and supplies no background check, credit report, or consumer report. Its partners do not provide screening services through this site. You agree not to use content for an FCRA-covered decision.

  • Hiring, retention, promotion, or termination
  • Tenant selection or any housing decision
  • Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance premiums
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

Third-Party Destinations

Links may lead to Sheriff and corrections pages, release records, Illinois government portals, legal resources, or outside search services. We do not endorse or control their content, availability, pricing, security, or data handling. Review each destination’s terms before using it.


Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are offered “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent allowed by law, no warranty is made regarding:

  • Accuracy, completeness, or currentness
  • Continuous or uninterrupted availability
  • Freedom from errors, bugs, or security flaws
  • The breadth or reliability of partner search results

Custody status and public records can change quickly. Nothing here is an official statement by the Rock Island County Sheriff, IDOC, a court, or another public agency.


Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site, its owners, and contributors are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access, use, inability to use, reliance on content, or use of an outside link.


User Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the site, its owners, and its partners from claims, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use, misuse, violation of law, or breach of these terms.


Ownership of Content

Unless otherwise identified, the text, graphics, logo, design, and code belong to Rock Island County Released Inmates or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, republished, modified, or commercially exploited without prior written permission.


Changes to Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A new version takes effect when it is posted. Continued use after posting signifies acceptance of the revised terms.


Suspension of Access

Access may be restricted, suspended, or ended at any time, for any reason, and without prior notice. This right includes action taken to protect the site, its users, or another party.


Illinois Governing Law

Illinois law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in Illinois. References to Illinois public records, including 5 ILCS 140, do not alter these private terms or grant access beyond what that statute provides.


Severability

If a court finds one term invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms remain effective. The affected term will be limited or adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
