Terms & Conditions

These terms govern use of this privately operated Lackawanna County reference resource. Do not use the site if you do not accept them. Continued access after an update means that you accept the current terms.

This private site is not affiliated with any government agency, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither it nor its advertising partners supplies a consumer-reporting service under the FCRA. Information and partner tools may not be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-covered purpose. The site is not a private investigation firm.


Nature of the Service

The site is a private reference resource, not an official Lackawanna County record system. It stores no government roster, cannot confirm custody, cannot release anyone, and cannot file documents. It identifies public offices and selected third-party research tools that may help a visitor find the appropriate records route.


Acceptable Use

Use the resource lawfully and with respect for the people and systems it describes.

  • Do not use the site to break a law.
  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person.
  • Do not use information for an FCRA-covered decision.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access to any system.
  • Do not use bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools.
  • Do not interfere with service for other visitors.

FCRA Restriction

The site is not a consumer reporting agency and does not provide consumer reports, background reports, or screening services. By using it, you agree not to use information from it or a linked partner tool for a purpose governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

  • Hiring, firing, or promotion decisions
  • Housing or tenant screening
  • Creditworthiness or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or public-benefit eligibility
  • Any other decision covered by the FCRA

Third-Party Links

Links may lead to county, court, corrections, federal, legal, or outside search services. Those services control their own content, availability, data handling, and terms. A link is not an endorsement or a guarantee that a destination will produce a result.


No Warranties

The site is provided as is and as available. There is no promise that content is complete, current, accurate, uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or that a partner search will be thorough. Public records and custody status can change quickly, and nothing here is an official agency statement.


Liability Limits

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site and its operators are not liable for damages arising from access to, use of, or inability to use the resource or a linked service.


Indemnification

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


Site Materials

The site's text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Lackawanna County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. They may not be copied, redistributed, or modified without written permission, except where law permits.


Changes and Access

These terms may change at any time and become effective when posted. Access may also be limited, suspended, or ended at any time, with or without notice.


Pennsylvania Law

These terms are governed by Pennsylvania law. Any dispute must be brought in courts within Pennsylvania, subject to applicable law.


Severability

If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay effective. The affected provision will be adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
