Terms & Conditions

By visiting or using Maryland Released Inmates, you agree to these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

This is a privately owned Maryland reference site with no affiliation to a government body, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provide credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or other FCRA-regulated services. The site organizes release-record and offender-search sources; it is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Service

Maryland Released Inmates is an independent reference with no government ties. It stores no official custody records and cannot confirm a person's status, release anyone, post bond, or file a request for a visitor.

The site points to Maryland release records and custody-search resources, routes users to the appropriate county or Baltimore City site, and may connect them with outside research tools.


Acceptable Use

Access is allowed only when it is lawful and does not harm another person or the service.

  • Do not violate any law through use of the site.
  • Do not stalk, threaten, or harass another person.
  • Do not use site content for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access to any account, system, or data.
  • Do not operate bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools.
  • Do not interfere with site access or operation for others.

No Consumer Reports

Maryland Released Inmates 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, and neither do its advertising partners. You agree not to use any information for an FCRA-covered purpose, including:

  • Hiring, promotion, discipline, or termination
  • Tenant or housing screening
  • Creditworthiness or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-benefit eligibility
  • Any other decision regulated by the FCRA

Outside Services and Links

Links may lead to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, Maryland locality sites, legal resources, or outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control the destination's content, privacy practices, results, or uptime, so review its own terms before use.


No Warranties

The site and all content are provided "as is" and "as available." We make no promise of:

  • Accuracy, completeness, or current information
  • Continuous or uninterrupted availability
  • Freedom from errors, defects, or security flaws
  • Complete or useful results from a partner tool

Custody and public records can change with little notice. Nothing published here is an official statement from DPSCS, a sheriff, a court, or another government office.


Limits on Liability

To the greatest extent Maryland law permits, the site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from access, use, reliance, or inability to use the service.


Your Duty to Indemnify

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


Ownership of Site Materials

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Maryland Released Inmates or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, alter, or republish them without written permission.


Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms at any time. A revision takes effect when the new terms are posted on this page.


Suspension of Access

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


Maryland Governing Law

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


Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms stay in force. The affected provision will be adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
