Terms & Conditions

Use of Ashe County Recent Arrests means acceptance of these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site or its search tools.

This privately owned site has no government affiliation and is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency. Neither it nor its ad partners offers FCRA-covered credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening services.


Nature of the Site

This private reference site points toward Ashe County Sheriff, detention, North Carolina court, NCDAC, federal, and third-party research resources. It stores no official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, file documents, or speak for an agency.


Acceptable Use

Users must act lawfully and responsibly.

  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, deceive, or harm anyone.
  • Do not make credit, employment, housing, insurance, or other regulated decisions from site information.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access or bypass security.
  • Do not use bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
  • Do not disrupt access for other visitors.

No Consumer Reports

This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and provides no consumer reports or background checks. Users agree not to use information for hiring or firing, tenant or housing screening, creditworthiness, insurance pricing, licensing, government-program eligibility, or any other FCRA-covered purpose.


Outside Services

Links may lead to jail, booking, sheriff, corrections, court, legal-aid, federal, news, and search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control the provider's content, availability, fees, or data practices, and users should review its terms.


No Warranties

The site and partner tools are provided "as is" and "as available." No warranty is made about accuracy, completeness, currency, uninterrupted operation, security, freedom from errors, or the scope of search results. Custody and public records change often, and nothing here is an official government statement.


Liability Limits

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


Indemnification

Users agree to defend and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, losses, and reasonable legal costs caused by their use, misuse, or violation of these terms.


Intellectual Property

Site text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Ashe County Recent Arrests or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, or modified without written permission, except where law permits.


Changes and Access

These terms may be revised at any time and take effect when posted. Access may be limited, suspended, or revoked at any time, for any reason, without notice.


North Carolina Law

North Carolina law governs these terms, and disputes must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in North Carolina.


Severability

If one term is held invalid, the rest remain effective. The invalid part will be adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
