This privately owned site is not connected to any government body, sheriff, jail, court, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers a service governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The site is not a consumer reporting agency or private investigation firm. It helps visitors locate Wallowa County and Oregon inmate and release-record resources, but its information cannot be used for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-covered purpose.
A Private Reference Resource
Wallowa County Released Inmates is a privately run reference site with no government affiliation. It stores no official jail, court, correctional, or federal records. It cannot confirm a live custody status, release a person, file a request for a visitor, or change an agency record. The site points toward Wallowa and Union County resources, Oregon correctional systems, federal locators, and outside research tools.
Acceptable Use Rules
You agree to use these pages, links, and tools lawfully and without harming another person, the site, or its providers. In particular, you must not:
- violate a law or court order while using the site;
- stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate, or target another person;
- base a hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decision on site content;
- seek access to an account, server, or data without authorization;
- run bots, scrapers, or automated collection tools against the site; or
- interfere with service, security, or another visitor’s use.
These limits apply even if a linked public record is available elsewhere. Access to information does not authorize misuse.
No Consumer Reports or Screening
This site is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not prepare background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports, and neither the site nor its advertising partners provides screening services. You agree not to use site information for:
- decisions about hiring, firing, or continued employment;
- tenant selection or any other housing decision;
- creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing;
- licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility; or
- any other transaction regulated by the FCRA.
Use official agencies for custody and record questions and qualified legal guidance for questions about lawful use.
Outside Resources and Services
Links may lead to sheriff and corrections sites, release records, government portals, statutes, court resources, legal-aid information, and independent search providers. A link is supplied for convenience, not endorsement. This site does not control an outside operator’s content, accuracy, availability, price, subscription terms, or data handling. Review that operator’s terms and privacy policy before using its service.
Service Provided As Is
The site and all its content are provided “as is” and “as available.” No express or implied warranty is made that:
- information is accurate, complete, or current;
- the site will remain available without interruption;
- the code or service is free of errors, bugs, or security weaknesses; or
- a partner search will return every responsive record.
Custody status and public records change often. Nothing here is an official statement from Wallowa County, Union County, a sheriff, a court, Oregon DOC, or a federal agency.
Limits on Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site and its owners, operators, contributors, and partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance on the site or an outside link. This limitation applies regardless of the legal theory asserted and whether the possibility of loss was known.
Your Duty to Indemnify
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the site, its owners, operators, contributors, and partners from claims, losses, obligations, damages, and reasonable legal fees that arise from your use of the site, your violation of these terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.
Ownership of Site Materials
Unless stated otherwise, the original text, graphics, logos, layout, and code belong to Wallowa County Released Inmates or its content partners. Government records and government works remain subject to their own rules. You may not copy, republish, distribute, sell, or modify protected site material without prior written permission.
Changes to These Terms
These terms may be revised at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued use after posting means you accept the new version, so review this page periodically.
Suspension or Loss of Access
Access may be restricted, suspended, or ended at any time, with or without notice, including when use threatens the site, violates these terms, or harms another person. Ending access does not remove obligations that by their nature should survive.
Oregon Law Governs
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in Oregon, subject to any controlling law that requires a different forum.
If One Term Is Invalid
If a court finds part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected provision will be limited or adjusted only as much as necessary to make it enforceable while preserving its purpose.

Questions about these terms may be sent through the Contacts page. That route is for site questions only and cannot provide an official inmate, jail, court, DOC, or federal record.
