A quick word on what this site is. It is privately owned. No sheriff, jail, police department, court, corrections agency, or other government body stands behind it. It is also not a private investigation firm, and it is not a consumer reporting agency. Neither these pages nor their advertising partners offer services for any purpose the FCRA covers.
What the Service Is
Picture a private map of public sources for Paulding County, Georgia. That is this service. It holds no official records. No jail, police, court, GDC, federal, or immigration files live here. It cannot confirm custody, free a detainee, file papers, or repair a record. What it does do is point you to the county roster, records-request routes, courts, corrections searches, and other outside resources.
Some pages include search tools run by outside providers. Pricing, results, data practices, and terms all come from them. Paulding County Busted Mugshots has no hand in any of it.
Acceptable Use
Use the pages lawfully, and treat the people and agencies named in public records with respect. That is the whole rule.
- Do not use the service to break a law or to encourage another person to do so.
- Do not stalk, threaten, harass, impersonate, or expose private information about another person.
- Do not attempt unauthorized access to the pages, a partner tool, or a government portal.
- Do not run bots, scrapers, crawlers, or automated requests that burden the service or a linked source.
- Do not interfere with availability, security, or another visitor's use.
FCRA Restrictions
The Fair Credit Reporting Act matters here. Paulding County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under that law, and it does not prepare consumer reports, credit reports, or background reports. Its advertising partners offer no screening service either. So information from these pages or any linked tool must never be used for a purpose the FCRA regulates.
- Hiring, firing, promotion, or other employment decisions
- Tenant, housing, or lease screening
- Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance decisions
- Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
- Any other use covered by the FCRA
These restrictions apply across the board. They cover any public booking, warrant, or court record referenced on the pages, no matter where it came from.
Links to Other Services
Links here lead many places. County rosters, sheriff and police websites, courts, corrections departments, federal locators, local publishers, legal resources, and search providers are all on the list. A link is not an endorsement. Paulding County Busted Mugshots cannot control an outside service's content, uptime, privacy practices, pricing, security, or data handling. Read the linked service's own terms before you rely on it.
No Warranties
The service and everything on it come "as is" and "as available." There is no promise that the pages or any linked result will be:
- Accurate, complete, current, or free of mistakes
- Available without interruption
- Free from bugs, harmful code, or security weaknesses
- Complete in the coverage supplied by a search partner or publisher
Public records shift constantly. Custody status changes. Fees change. Addresses and court portals change with them. Nothing here counts as an official statement. Not from a sheriff's office, jail, court, police department, corrections agency, or any other government body.
Limits on Liability
Liability here is sharply limited. To the fullest extent the law allows, Paulding County Busted Mugshots and everyone involved in operating it are not liable for losses, claims, or damages tied to accessing the pages, being unable to access them, or relying on them, a search result, or an outside service.
Indemnification Terms
Users also take on an obligation to indemnify. By using the service, you agree to protect and hold harmless Paulding County Busted Mugshots, its operators, contractors, and content partners from claims, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees that arise from your use of the service, a violation of these terms, a violation of law, or harm you cause to another person.
Ownership and Permission
Who owns what? The text, design, graphics, logo, layout, and code on these pages belong to Paulding County Busted Mugshots or its content partners, unless another owner is named. Copying, distributing, selling, modifying, or republishing that protected material requires written permission. The law grants one exception. Where it does, a separate right applies.
Changes to These Terms
These terms can change at any time. Revised wording takes effect the moment it posts, unless a later date is stated. Keep using the service after a change. That counts as accepting the new terms.
Access May End
Access is never guaranteed. All or part of the service may be limited, suspended, or blocked at any time, for any reason, with or without notice. Reasons can include misuse, excessive automated traffic, a security risk, or a legal request.
Georgia Law Applies
Georgia law governs these terms. That choice is firm. No conflict-of-law rule applies that would pull in another jurisdiction. Venue follows the same logic. Any dispute belongs in a court located in Georgia, unless applicable law requires a different forum for that particular claim.
Severability Clause
One bad provision does not sink the rest. That is the point of severability. If a court finds part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions carry on without interruption. The flawed language gets adjusted, but only as far as needed. The fix preserves the intended purpose of the clause while making it enforceable again.
