Terms & Conditions of Use

Using Butte County Recent Arrests means that you agree to these terms and conditions. If you do not accept them, do not use the website.

This privately owned site is not affiliated with the Butte County Sheriff’s Office, Butte County Jail, the Idaho Department of Correction, or any government body. It helps visitors locate Idaho and Butte County records resources and third-party research tools. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides private-investigation, background-check, credit, employment, insurance, housing, or tenant-screening services, and none is a consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Website

This is an independent reference guide with no government ties. It stores no official arrest, jail, or court records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or submit documents for a visitor.

The guide identifies resources related to Butte County jail and arrest records, Idaho Public Records Act requests under Idaho Code §74-102, courts, corrections, and independent search providers.


Permitted Use

  • Use the website only for lawful purposes.
  • Do not use information to stalk, threaten, or harass anyone.
  • Do not rely on site content for hiring, housing, lending, credit, or insurance decisions.
  • Do not attempt to access systems or data without authorization.
  • Do not operate automated bots, crawlers, or scrapers against the site.
  • Do not interfere with the website or another visitor’s use of it.

FCRA and Screening Prohibition

Butte County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It provides no background check, credit report, consumer report, or screening service, and neither do its advertising partners. By using the website, you agree not to use its material for:

  • Hiring, firing, promotion, or another employment decision
  • Tenant selection or any housing decision
  • Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government program
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

Outside Websites and Services

Links may lead to sheriff and jail contacts, court or corrections systems, government portals, legal-aid information, and independent search providers. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control another site’s content, availability, data practices, or terms, which users should review before proceeding.


Service Provided As Is

The website and its content are provided “as is.” We make no warranty that:

  • Information is accurate, complete, or current
  • The website will remain continuously available
  • The website is free from every error, bug, or security weakness
  • An independent partner’s search results are complete

Custody and public records can change quickly. Nothing here is an official statement by the Butte County Sheriff’s Office, Butte County Jail, Idaho courts, or another government agency. An arrest is an allegation rather than proof of guilt.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by Idaho law, this site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from access to, reliance on, or inability to use the website.


Your Duty to Indemnify

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


Ownership of Site Materials

Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Butte County Recent Arrests or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, or modified without prior written permission except where applicable law permits.


Revisions to These Terms

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


Suspension of Access

We may restrict or terminate access at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.


Idaho Law Controls

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Idaho. Any dispute must be filed in a court located within Idaho.


If One Provision Is Invalid

If a court finds part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected language will be adjusted only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable.
