These Terms of Use govern access to Hawaiʻi County Busted Mugshots. By browsing or using the service, a visitor agrees to these terms. Anyone who does not accept them should stop using the pages and linked tools.

Hawaiʻi County Busted Mugshots is privately owned and is not affiliated with any government body, sheriff's office, jail, or corrections department.

What This Service Is

This is a private reference service for finding public-record resources connected with Hawaiʻi County. It stores no official booking, custody, or court record and cannot confirm current custody, release a person, post bond, or file a document. Government offices and courts control their own records.

The pages point visitors toward HPD booking reports and records requests, DCR status tools, HCCC information, Third Circuit information, federal locators, local news, and other research resources. Outside providers operate their own tools and may charge their own fees.

Outside Links and Tools

Links may lead to HPD, DCR, courts, federal locators, archives, legal resources, news publishers, or third-party search services. Hawaiʻi County Busted Mugshots does not control their content, privacy practices, pricing, uptime, or results. A link is not an endorsement or a guarantee. Review the destination's terms before using it.


Information Provided As Is

All pages and links are supplied “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, no warranty is made about:

  • Accuracy, completeness, identity, timeliness, or currency.
  • Continuous availability or uninterrupted operation.
  • Freedom from errors, bugs, malware, or security weaknesses.
  • Thoroughness or accuracy of a partner's search results.

Custody status, public records, links, and government procedures change. Nothing here is an official statement by HPD, DCR, a court, a sheriff's office, or another government agency.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Hawaiʻi County Busted Mugshots and the people who operate it are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or other damages arising from access to, inability to access, or reliance on the service or an outside link.


Your Indemnification Promise

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the service and its operators, partners, and providers from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and reasonable legal fees that arise from your use of the pages, your violation of these terms, or your violation of another person's rights.

These terms may be revised at any time. New wording becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued access after a change means the revised terms are accepted.


Access May Be Revoked

Access to all or part of the service may be limited, suspended, or blocked at any time, with or without notice, for any reason including abuse, security concerns, legal requirements, or operational needs.


Hawaiʻi Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Hawaiʻi, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute must be filed in a court located in Hawaiʻi unless applicable law requires another forum.


If One Term Fails

If a court finds any part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. The affected wording will be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
