Information from the site or a linked tool may not be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another purpose regulated by the FCRA.
Nature of the Service
Otsego County Released Inmates is a private reference resource. It stores no official jail or court record, cannot confirm present custody, cannot release anyone, and cannot file a request or court document for a visitor.
The pages direct readers to Otsego County and Michigan records, agency contacts, locators, and independent research tools. Those outside services operate under their own rules.

The site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide credit reports, background checks, consumer reports, or screening services. Visitors agree not to use information from this site or a linked tool for an FCRA-covered decision.

Outside Links and Services
Links may lead to release records, Sheriff or MDOC pages, government portals, legal resources, and third-party search providers. A link is not an endorsement. This site does not control the destination’s content, privacy practices, price, or availability, so visitors should review its terms before use.
Service Without Warranties
The site and its content are provided “as is.” No promise is made about the following matters.
- Accuracy, completeness, or timeliness
- Continuous or uninterrupted availability
- Freedom from errors, bugs, or security flaws
- Scope or quality of a partner’s search results
Custody data and public records can change quickly. Nothing here is an official statement by Otsego County, a sheriff, a court, or another public body.
Limits on Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages that result from access to, inability to access, or reliance on the site.
Your Duty to Indemnify
A visitor agrees to defend and hold the site and its operators harmless from claims, losses, and reasonable legal costs arising from that visitor’s use of the service or violation of these terms.
Ownership of Site Material
Text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Otsego County Released Inmates or its content partners. They may not be copied, distributed, altered, or republished without written permission, except as applicable law permits.

These terms may be changed at any time. A revision takes effect when the new version is posted on this page.
Suspending Site Access
Access may be restricted or ended at any time, for any reason, without advance notice.
Michigan Law Applies
Michigan law governs these terms. Any dispute must be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Michigan.
If One Term Fails
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the rest remain effective. The affected provision will be adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
