Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions govern access to Grant County Released Inmates and its links to public-record resources and outside search services. Using any part of the site means that you agree to these terms. If you do not accept them, do not browse, search, or otherwise use the service. The terms apply to all visitors and to every feature made available through the site.

Grant County Released Inmates is privately owned and is not connected with any government body, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers a service regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Information and partner tools may not be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-covered purpose. The site helps visitors locate Grant County, West Virginia jail and release-record resources. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Service

Grant County Released Inmates is a private reference service. It has no authority over Potomac Highlands Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, the Grant County Sheriff, WVDCR, the West Virginia courts, parole or probation offices, BOP, ICE, or USMS. It does not hold official records, confirm anyone's custody status, release a person, submit a public-record request, or file a court document.

The service points visitors toward official jail, court, corrections, supervision, and federal resources relevant to Grant County. Some pages also connect users with outside research tools. Those destinations are separate services with their own rules.


Acceptable Use Rules

You agree to use the site and any information reached through it in a lawful, respectful manner. In particular, you must not:

  • Use the service while violating any local, state, or federal law
  • Stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate, or harm another person
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on site content
  • Seek access to an account, server, or system without authorization
  • Operate bots, crawlers, scrapers, or other automated collection tools
  • Interfere with access, security, performance, or use by other visitors

No Consumer Reports

Grant County Released Inmates is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide background checks, credit reports, consumer reports, or screening services. Its advertising partners likewise do not provide those services through this site. By using the service, you agree that neither site content nor partner results will be used for:

  • Decisions to hire, fire, retain, or promote a worker
  • Tenant selection, rental approval, or other housing screening
  • Creditworthiness, lending terms, or insurance premiums
  • Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government benefit
  • Any other purpose governed by the FCRA

Links to Outside Services

The site links to release records, Grant County offices, WVDCR resources, court portals, federal locators, legal-aid information, and third-party search services. A link is provided for convenience and does not amount to control or endorsement. Grant County Released Inmates is not responsible for an outside site's content, privacy practices, data handling, fees, terms, security, or uptime. Review the destination's own rules before using it.


Service Provided As Is

All pages, links, and features are supplied “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, no express or implied warranty is made regarding:

  • The accuracy, completeness, or current state of information
  • Continuous or uninterrupted access to the site
  • The absence of errors, software defects, or security weaknesses
  • The scope or completeness of results from a partner search

Custody status, court dockets, release entries, and public interfaces can change quickly. Nothing displayed here is an official statement from PHRJCF, the Grant County Sheriff, WVDCR, a court, or another government agency. Confirm material facts with the office that created the record.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, Grant County Released Inmates and its owners, operators, and content partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or other damages arising from access to, reliance on, or inability to use the site or any linked service.


Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Grant County Released Inmates, its owners, operators, and partners from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees that arise from your use of the service, your misuse of information, or your breach of these Terms & Conditions.


Ownership of Site Materials

Unless a different owner is identified, the original text, graphics, logos, page design, and code used by Grant County Released Inmates belong to the site or its content partners. You may not copy, republish, distribute, sell, or modify those materials without prior written permission.


Revisions to These Terms

These Terms & Conditions may be revised at any time. A new version becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued use after posting means that you accept the revised terms.


Suspension or Loss of Access

Access to all or part of the service may be restricted, suspended, or terminated at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. That right may be used to protect the service, its visitors, or other parties.


West Virginia Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of West Virginia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute relating to the service or these terms must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction within West Virginia.


Severability of Provisions

If a court finds one part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts stay in effect. The affected language will be limited or adjusted only as much as needed to make it valid and enforceable.
