Terms of Use

These terms apply whenever you browse or use Pinellas County Recent Arrests. Continued use means you agree to them. If you do not accept these conditions, please do not use the site.

Pinellas County Recent Arrests is privately owned and is not affiliated with any government agency, sheriff, jail, court, police department, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers a consumer report or service for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-covered purpose. We are not a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Site

This is a private reference resource with no government authority. It does not store official Pinellas County records, confirm custody, release a detained person, or file a public-record or court document for a visitor.

Its content points readers toward Pinellas County Sheriff's Office and Pinellas County Jail resources, Florida Department of Corrections information, court sources, records custodians, and independent research tools.


Acceptable Use Rules

You agree to use this site and any information reached through it in a lawful and responsible way.

  • Do not violate any local, state, or federal law.
  • Do not stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person.
  • Do not make employment, housing, lending, insurance, or other regulated screening decisions from this content.
  • Do not attempt access to accounts, systems, or data without authorization.
  • Do not deploy bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools.
  • Do not interfere with the site's operation or another visitor's access.

No Consumer Reports

Pinellas County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not supply background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports, and its advertising partners do not provide screening services through this site. You agree not to use site content for:

  • A decision to hire, fire, or retain a worker.
  • A rental, housing, or tenant-screening decision.
  • Credit eligibility, lending, or insurance pricing.
  • A license, permit, or government-benefit eligibility decision.
  • Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA.

Outside Websites

Links may lead to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections websites, government portals, legal resources, or independent search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control an outside site's content, availability, security, data practices, or terms, which should be reviewed before use.


Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are supplied "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent allowed by law, no warranty is made about:

  • The accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of information.
  • Continuous or uninterrupted access.
  • The absence of errors, bugs, or security flaws.
  • The scope or quality of an independent partner's results.

Custody entries and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement by PCSO, Pinellas County Jail, or another government office. Charges at booking are accusations and do not prove guilt.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site and its owners, operators, and partners will not be liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from access to or use of the site.


Your Duty to Indemnify

You agree to defend and hold the site, its owners, and its partners harmless from claims, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees caused by your use of the site or violation of these terms.


Ownership of Site Materials

Unless stated otherwise, the site's text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Pinellas County Recent Arrests or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, republished, or modified 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.


Suspension of Access

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


Florida Law Applies

These terms are governed by Florida law, including applicable requirements of Florida Chapter 119 and ยง119.07 where public-record access is discussed. Any dispute concerning these terms must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Florida.


If One Term Is Invalid

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