Rice County Terms & Conditions

These terms apply whenever you browse or use Rice County Released Inmates. By continuing, you accept the conditions below. If you disagree with any part, please stop using the site.

This privately owned site has no affiliation with Rice County, a sheriff, jail, court, or corrections agency. Neither this site nor its advertising partners provides a consumer report or another FCRA-covered service for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant decisions. The site points to Rice County and Minnesota record resources and is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.


Nature of This Website

Rice County Released Inmates is a private reference. It stores no official jail, release, court, or corrections records. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file a request for a visitor.

The content organizes public record routes for Rice County and links to government systems and outside research services. The agency that created a record remains the authority for its current status and contents.


Acceptable Use Rules

You may use the site only in a lawful way that respects other people and the operation of the service.

  • Do not break a local, state, or federal law through the site.
  • Do not use information to stalk, threaten, harass, or harm anyone.
  • Do not use the content for hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or another covered eligibility decision.
  • Do not attempt access to accounts, code, servers, or data without permission.
  • Do not run automated bots or scrapers against the site.
  • Do not interfere with service availability or another visitor's access.

No Consumer Reports

Rice County Released Inmates is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not offer credit reports, consumer reports, screening products, or background checks. Its advertising partners do not supply such a service through this site. You agree not to use site information for an FCRA-covered purpose.

  • Hiring, firing, promotion, or another employment choice
  • Tenant selection or any other housing decision
  • Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility

Outside Websites

Links may lead to sheriff and corrections pages, release records, government portals, legal resources, or third-party search services. A link is not an endorsement. Rice County Released Inmates does not control an outside site's content, availability, privacy practices, or data handling. Review that provider's terms before using it.


No Warranties

The site and its content are supplied “as is” and “as available.” No promise is made that information is complete, accurate, current, uninterrupted, free from errors or security flaws, or that a partner search will locate every relevant record.

Custody, court, and corrections information changes. Nothing published here is an official statement by the Rice County Sheriff's Office, Minnesota Department of Corrections, a court, or any government body.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Rice County Released Inmates and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to, use of, or reliance on the site or an outside service.


User Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, losses, obligations, and reasonable legal fees caused by your use of the site, your misuse of information, or your violation of these terms.


Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise identified, the site's original text, graphics, logo, layout, and code belong to Rice County Released Inmates or its content partners. You may not reproduce, distribute, alter, or republish protected material without written permission.


Changes to These Terms

These conditions may be revised at any time. A revision becomes effective when the updated text is posted on this page. Continued use after posting means the revised terms apply.


Access May End

Access may be limited, suspended, or revoked at any time and without advance notice, including when use threatens the site, violates these terms, or harms another person.


Minnesota Governing Law

Minnesota law governs these terms, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Minnesota.


Severability

If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. The affected language will be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
