Terms & Conditions

These terms govern access to and use of Lincoln County Released Inmates. By browsing the site or using one of its links or tools, you agree to follow them. If you do not accept every condition, do not use the site.

Lincoln County Released Inmates is privately owned and has no affiliation with Lincoln County, any sheriff, Western Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, WVDCR, or another government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners provides credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or other FCRA-covered services. This resource helps visitors locate inmate, custody, and release-record sources in Lincoln County, West Virginia. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.


Purpose of This Resource

This is an independent reference site. It does not hold official records, speak for a government office, verify whether a person is in custody, direct a release, or file a request or court paper for a visitor.

Its pages point to public sources such as WVDCR, Western Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, and West Virginia court systems, as well as outside research tools. Access to official records is controlled by the office that holds them, including West Virginia Freedom of Information Act rules in West Virginia Code ยง29B-1-3 and applicable exemptions.


Permitted and Prohibited Conduct

Use must be lawful, respectful, and consistent with these terms. You agree that you will not:

  • Use the site while violating any law or regulation
  • Stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten another person
  • Use information for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another eligibility decision
  • Try to enter accounts, systems, or data without authorization
  • Deploy bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools
  • Interfere with site access, security, or use by others

No Consumer Reports

Lincoln 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 partners do not offer screening services through this site. By using the site, you agree not to use its content or linked results for:

  • Hiring, firing, promotion, or other employment decisions
  • Tenant selection, housing approval, or lease decisions
  • Creditworthiness, lending terms, or insurance premiums
  • Licenses, permits, or government-program eligibility
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA

Independent External Resources

Links may lead to release records, corrections pages, government portals, legal-aid information, or third-party search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control an outside site's content, privacy practices, terms, prices, or availability, so visitors should review that site's own policies before using it.


Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent allowed by law, we make no warranty that:

  • Information is complete, accurate, or current
  • The site will remain available without interruption
  • Pages will be free of errors, defects, or security weaknesses
  • A partner search will return every relevant result

Custody status, release events, and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement from Lincoln County, a sheriff, WVDCR, Western Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, or any other public office.


Limits on Liability

To the broadest extent permitted by law, Lincoln County Released Inmates and its owners, operators, and partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or other damages arising from access to, inability to access, reliance on, or use of the site or linked resources.


Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Lincoln County Released Inmates, its owners, operators, and partners from claims, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, caused by your use of the site or your violation of these terms.


Ownership of Site Materials

Unless stated otherwise, the site's original text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Lincoln County Released Inmates or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, republish, alter, or create derivative works from those materials without prior written permission.


Revisions to These Terms

We may change these terms at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page, and continued use after that posting means you accept the new terms.


Suspension or Termination

We may restrict, suspend, or end access to any part of the site at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.


West Virginia Law Applies
