Terms & Conditions

Using Knox County Recent Arrests means that you accept these terms. If you do not agree with them, do not access or use the site.

This privately owned reference site is not connected with any government body, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. Neither we nor our advertising partners offer FCRA-covered services. We are not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency, and our material may not be used for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant screening.


Purpose of This Website

We provide general directions to arrest, jail, court, custody, and record resources for Knox County and Missouri. We store no official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file documents. Some pages connect visitors with independent research tools.


Acceptable Use Rules

You agree to use the site responsibly. You must not:

  • Use the site while violating any law
  • Stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person
  • Use information for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another prohibited decision
  • Seek unauthorized access to the site or its systems
  • Run bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools
  • Disrupt access or service for other visitors

No Consumer Reports

We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. We and our advertising partners do not provide background checks, credit reports, consumer reports, or screening services. You agree not to use site or partner information for:

  • Hiring, firing, or other employment decisions
  • Tenant selection or housing decisions
  • Creditworthiness or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

External Services and Links

Links may point to sheriff sites, jail information, booking feeds, government portals, corrections systems, legal resources, or outside search providers. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control outside content, data practices, terms, or availability.


Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no warranty about:

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

Custody and public records can change quickly. Nothing here is an official statement from the sheriff or another government office.


Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Knox County Recent Arrests and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to or use of the site.


Your Duty to Indemnify

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


Ownership of Site Materials

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


Changes to These Terms

We may revise these terms at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.


Suspension of Access

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


Missouri Law Applies

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri. Any dispute must be filed in a court with jurisdiction in Missouri.


If One Term Is Invalid

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