Terms & Conditions

Purpose of This Reference Site

This is an independent informational resource, not a government website. We do not store official arrest or court records, confirm whether someone is in custody, arrange anyone’s release, accept public-record requests, or file documents with a court or agency.

Our pages explain how to reach sources such as Wilkes County Jail, NC SAVAN/VINE, the Sheriff’s Office, North Carolina courts, and other record tools. Some functions connect visitors with independently operated research services.

Acceptable Use Rules

Use this site only for lawful, respectful information access. By continuing, you agree that you will not:

• Use the site while committing or assisting any unlawful act.
• Use information to stalk, intimidate, harass, or threaten another person.
• Base employment, housing, lending, insurance, or other eligibility decisions on site content.
• Attempt to enter accounts, systems, servers, or data without authorization.
• Operate automated bots, crawlers, scrapers, or bulk-extraction tools.
• Damage, overload, interrupt, or impair access for other visitors.

No Consumer Reports or FCRA Use

Wilkes County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. We do not prepare background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports. Our advertising and search partners do not provide screening services through this site. You agree not to use information obtained here for:

• Employment, hiring, discipline, or termination decisions.

Independently Operated Links

Links may lead to jail and custody systems, booking resources, Sheriff or corrections pages, court portals, legal-aid information, and outside search services. We do not operate those destinations and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, prices, or treatment of submitted data. Review each provider’s terms and privacy practices before using it.

Information Provided As Is

The site and all information available through it are provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no warranty or guarantee concerning:

• The accuracy, completeness, or current status of any information.
• Continuous, timely, or uninterrupted access.
• Freedom from errors, defects, malicious code, or security weaknesses.
• The scope, quality, or completeness of a partner’s search results.

Custody information and public records can change without warning. Nothing published here is an official statement from the Sheriff’s Office, jail, court, or another government agency. Confirm important facts with the office that created the record.

Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Wilkes County Recent Arrests and its owners, operators, partners, and service providers will not be liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance on this site or any linked service.

We may revise these terms at any time. A revision takes effect when it is posted on this page. Continued use after publication of a change means you accept the updated conditions.

Suspension or Loss of Access

We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to any part of the site at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. That authority includes responding to misuse, security concerns, or conduct that violates these terms.

North Carolina Law Applies

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute concerning these terms or use of the site must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in North Carolina.

If One Term Is Unenforceable

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in force. The affected provision will be narrowed or adjusted only as much as necessary to make it enforceable where the law permits.
