Terms of Use

Use of Gallatin County Recent Arrests means acceptance of these terms. If you do not agree with them, do not access or use the site.

This privately owned site is not affiliated with Gallatin County, any sheriff, jail, court, corrections department, or government body. Neither we nor our advertising partners offer consumer reports or services for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant screening. We are not investigators or a consumer reporting agency.


Nature of the Site

This is a private reference service. It stores no official arrest, booking, custody, or court records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, or file a document.

Its purpose is to point visitors toward Gallatin County arrest-record sources, the Saline physical-custody route, Illinois corrections resources, courts, and optional third-party research tools.


Acceptable Use Rules

Access is conditioned on responsible, lawful use. You agree that you will not:

  • Violate any local, state, federal, or other applicable law
  • Use information to stalk, threaten, harass, or harm anyone
  • Base hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions on site content
  • Try to gain unauthorized access to the site or its systems
  • Operate bots, scrapers, or other automated extraction tools
  • Interfere with access or service for another visitor

No Consumer Reports

Gallatin County Recent Arrests is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It provides no background check, credit report, consumer report, or screening service, and neither do its advertising partners through this site. You agree not to use any content for:

  • Hiring, firing, or another employment decision
  • Tenant selection or any housing decision
  • Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing
  • License, permit, or government-benefit eligibility
  • Any other purpose governed by the FCRA

Outside Links and Services

Links may point to sheriff and corrections pages, custody locators, court portals, legal resources, or outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control the destination’s content, privacy practices, terms, data, or availability, and users should review those policies themselves.


Service Provided As Is

The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no warranty that information is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, free of errors or security flaws, or that a partner search will be exhaustive.

Custody and public-record information can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement by the Gallatin County Sheriff, Saline County custodian, Illinois Department of Corrections, or another government office.


Limits of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by Illinois law, the site and its owners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other loss arising from access to, reliance on, or inability to use this service.


Your Duty to Indemnify

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


Ownership of Site Materials

Unless identified otherwise, the text, graphics, logo, layout, and code belong to Gallatin County Recent Arrests or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, alter, or republish them without written permission.


Revisions to These Terms

We may change these terms at any time. New terms become effective when they are posted on this page.


Suspension of Access

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


Illinois Law Applies

These terms are governed by Illinois law. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Illinois.


If One Term Fails

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