This privately owned reference site has no affiliation with a government body, sheriff, jail, police department, court, or corrections agency. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or other services regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The site only helps visitors locate San Francisco County and California public-record resources. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.
Nature of the Service
San Francisco County Busted Mugshots is a private reference resource. It stores no official jail, arrest, court, or corrections records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file a document with an agency.
Links point toward official county-jail, police, court, state-corrections, federal, and other research tools. An outside search provider may also offer its own service under separate terms.

- Attempt access to accounts, servers, or data without authorization.
- Run bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools.
- Interfere with the site's operation or another visitor's access.
No Consumer Reports
This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA. It provides no background check, credit report, consumer report, or screening service, and neither do its advertising partners. You agree not to use any information obtained here for an FCRA-covered purpose.

Outside Links and Services
Links may lead to jail locators, booking data, sheriff and corrections sites, courts, legal-aid resources, news outlets, federal locators, and outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. This site does not control the destination's content, privacy practices, data use, accuracy, or uptime, so review its terms before use.
No Warranties
The site and its content are supplied "as is" and "as available." No warranty is made about:
- Accuracy, completeness, or currency.
- Continuous or uninterrupted availability.
- Freedom from errors, defects, or security flaws.
- The scope or quality of a partner's search results.
Custody and public-record data can change at any time. Nothing published here is an official statement by the San Francisco Sheriff's Office, SFPD, a court, or another agency.
Limits of Liability
To the fullest extent California law allows, the site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages tied to access, inability to access, reliance on content, or use of an outside service.
Your Duty to Indemnify
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use of the site or violation of these terms.

Unless another owner is identified, the text, graphics, logo, design, and code belong to San Francisco County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, republished, or modified without written permission.
Revisions to These Terms
These terms may change at any time. A revision becomes effective when the updated text is posted here, and continued use means acceptance of that revision.

Access may be restricted, suspended, or ended at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.
California Law Controls
California law governs these terms without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in California.
Severability
If a court finds one term invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms continue in force. The affected term will be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
