Allegheny Terms & Conditions

These Terms and Conditions govern access to Allegheny County Released Inmates and its links, search features, text, and other materials. By using the site, a visitor agrees to follow every term below and all laws that apply. Anyone who does not accept these rules must stop using the site. The terms apply to this private reference resource, not to Allegheny County, Pennsylvania agencies, courts, corrections offices, federal systems, or outside providers reached through a link.

Independent private resource. Allegheny County Released Inmates is privately owned and has no affiliation with any government body, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers an FCRA-covered service for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant screening. The site helps visitors locate Allegheny County and Pennsylvania inmate, jail, release, and court-record resources. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.


Nature of This Resource

This is a private reference website. It does not store official jail, release, inmate, parole, or court records. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, alter a sentence, file a request, or act for any public office. Allegheny County Jail, UJS, PA DOC, the Pennsylvania Parole Board, BOP, ICE, and other custodians remain responsible for their own records and actions.

The site points visitors toward public agencies and record channels relevant to Allegheny County and may connect them with outside research tools. A link or search feature is a route to another provider, not a promise that the provider will return a particular result.


Acceptable Use Rules

Visitors must use the service lawfully and without harming people, systems, or other users. In particular, a visitor may not:

  • Break any federal, Pennsylvania, or local law while using the site
  • Use information to stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten another person
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on site content
  • Attempt to enter accounts, systems, or data without authorization
  • Operate bots, scrapers, or automated extraction tools against the site
  • Interfere with access, security, performance, or use by others

These restrictions apply whether the activity targets this website, an outside search provider, or an office linked from a page.


No Consumer Reports

Allegheny County Released Inmates is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It supplies no background check, credit report, or consumer report. Its advertising and search partners do not provide screening services through this site. By continuing to use the site, each visitor agrees not to use any displayed, linked, or returned information for an FCRA-covered decision.

  • Hiring, firing, promotion, or other employment decisions
  • Tenant selection, lease decisions, or other housing screening
  • Creditworthiness, lending terms, or insurance premiums
  • Licensing, permits, or eligibility for a government program
  • Any other purpose regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act

Services and Sites We Link

Links may lead to Allegheny release records, county jail pages, Pennsylvania corrections and parole resources, UJS court systems, federal locators, legal-aid information, or outside search services. A link does not endorse the destination. Allegheny County Released Inmates does not control or accept responsibility for another site's content, privacy practices, data handling, prices, results, security, or uptime. Visitors should review the destination's terms before using it.


Service Provided As Is

The site, its text, features, and links are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent allowed by law, no express or implied warranty is made about:

  • The accuracy, completeness, or current state of information
  • Continuous or uninterrupted availability
  • Freedom from errors, bugs, or security weaknesses
  • The scope or quality of a partner's search results

Custody status, court entries, office hours, and public records can change without notice. Nothing displayed here is an official statement from Allegheny County Jail, a sheriff, PA DOC, a court, the Parole Board, or any other public agency. A visitor must verify time-sensitive facts with the office that created them.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Allegheny County Released Inmates and its owners, operators, contributors, and service providers are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from access to, inability to access, reliance on, or use of the site or a linked service. This limit applies even when the possibility of loss was known.


Your Duty to Indemnify

A visitor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Allegheny County Released Inmates, its owners, operators, contributors, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, judgments, costs, and reasonable legal fees caused by that visitor's use of the site, misuse of information, violation of law, or breach of these terms.


Ownership of Site Materials

Unless a source is identified otherwise, the site's original text, graphics, logo presentation, organization, and code belong to Allegheny County Released Inmates or its content partners and are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. No one may copy, republish, distribute, modify, sell, or create a derivative work from those materials without prior written permission. Government records and third-party materials remain subject to their own rights and rules.


Revisions to These Terms

These Terms and Conditions may be revised at any time. New language takes effect when the revised terms are posted. Continued use after posting means the visitor accepts the current version, so users should check this page from time to time.


Suspension or Loss of Access

Access may be restricted, suspended, or ended at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. This right includes action taken to address suspected misuse, security concerns, operational needs, legal risk, or conduct inconsistent with these terms.


Pennsylvania Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute that must be filed in court shall be brought in a court of proper jurisdiction within Pennsylvania. Nothing in these terms changes statutory access procedures for official records, including the Pennsylvania Right-to-Know Law, 65 P.S. §§ 67.101 et seq.


Remaining Terms Stay Effective

If a court finds any provision invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, the provision will be narrowed or adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable where possible. Every other provision will remain in full force.
