Outside Services

No Warranties

The service is provided “as is” and “as available.” We make no promise that its material is accurate, complete, current, uninterrupted, secure, free from technical defects, or comprehensive for partner results.

Custody status and public records can change rapidly. Nothing here is an official statement by JCSO, a court, a city, or another government office.

We may limit, suspend, or revoke access to the service at any time, for any reason, without notice.


Missouri Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Missouri. Any dispute must be brought in a court located within Missouri, subject to applicable law.


Severability

If a court finds part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms remain effective. The affected provision will be adjusted only as necessary to make it enforceable.
