Terms & Conditions

The Site’s Limited Role

This is a private reference service, not a government office. It does not possess official Leelanau County records and cannot verify whether someone is in custody, authorize a release, accept a public-record filing, change a charge, or submit papers to a court or agency.

Content points visitors toward Leelanau County Corrections, Michigan systems, courts, federal locators, and other public resources. Some tools connect to independent research providers. A link or referral does not turn their information into an official county statement.

Conditions for Acceptable Use

You must use the site lawfully and without harming another person, the service, or its users.

• Do not violate any local, state, federal, or other applicable law.
• Do not stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten anyone with information found here.
• Do not make hiring, lodging, lending, or insurance decisions from site content.
• Do not seek access to systems or accounts without authorization.
• Do not operate bots, crawlers, scrapers, or other automated extraction tools.
• Do not interfere with performance, security, or another visitor’s access.

No Consumer Reports or Screening

Leelanau County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It supplies no background check, credit report, or consumer report. Its advertising and search partners do not provide screening services through this site. You agree not to use information obtained here for an FCRA-covered decision.

Independent Websites and Services

Links may lead to jail information, booking resources, sheriff or corrections pages, government portals, legal-aid materials, news outlets, and outside search services. We do not operate those sites and are not responsible for their content, privacy practices, data handling, pricing, availability, or security. Review each destination’s terms before using it.

Service Provided As Is

The site and all information are supplied “as is” and “as available.” To the extent permitted by law, we make no express or implied promise concerning:

• The accuracy, completeness, or current status of any information
• Continuous or uninterrupted site access
• Freedom from errors, defects, malware, or security weaknesses
• The scope, quality, or completeness of partner search results

Custody status, court information, and public records can change without warning. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Leelanau County Sheriff’s Office, Leelanau County Corrections, Michigan, or another public agency. Verify with the originating office.

Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, Leelanau County Recent Arrests and its owners, operators, contributors, and service providers will not be liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive loss arising from access to, inability to access, or reliance on the site or an outside service.

Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Leelanau County Recent Arrests and its owners, operators, contributors, and providers from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and reasonable legal fees resulting from your use of the site, your misuse of information, or your breach of these terms.

Ownership of Site Materials

Unless a separate attribution says otherwise, the site’s text, original graphics, logos, layout, and code belong to Leelanau County Recent Arrests or its content partners and are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, or modify them without prior written permission.

Revisions Take Effect When Posted

We may revise these Terms & Conditions at any time. A new version becomes effective when posted on this page. Continued use after publication means you accept the revised terms.

Access May Be Withdrawn

We may suspend, limit, or terminate access to all or part of the site at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. This right does not limit any other remedy available under these terms or law.

Michigan Law Controls

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction within Michigan.

Remaining Terms Stay Effective

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. The affected provision will be narrowed or adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable while preserving its intended purpose.

Questions About These Conditions

Questions concerning these Terms & Conditions may be sent through the Contacts page. That channel is not a government records desk and cannot confirm custody or alter an official record.
