Terms of Use

By using Honolulu County Busted Mugshots, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not accept them, do not use the pages or the embedded search service. The pages are a private reference service for links and explanations about HPD, DCR, OCCC, DLE, court, federal, and immigration records. They do not create an official record or change an agency's decision.

Honolulu County Busted Mugshots is privately owned and has no government affiliation. It is not a sheriff's office, jail, corrections department, court, or private investigation firm. Neither this service nor its advertising partners are a consumer reporting agency, and no information may be used for an FCRA-covered purpose.


What the Service Provides

The pages organize public links such as the HPD arrest-log index, DCR SAVIN/VINELink, the Hawaii Department of Law Enforcement, Sheriff Division, Oahu Community Correctional Center information, and Hawaii Judiciary access. The service stores no official jail, arrest, court, or booking-photo database. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, file a court document, or give legal advice.

References to Hawaii public records are general information about UIPA, Chapter 92F, HPD policy, criminal-history limits, and the current record paths. The originating office's current policy controls.


Rules for Acceptable Use

  • Use the pages lawfully and follow the rules of every linked government or partner service.
  • Do not use information to stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate, or expose another person.
  • Do not attempt unauthorized access to an account, database, server, form, or restricted court system.
  • Do not run bots, scrapers, bulk collectors, or automated requests that burden the pages or a linked provider.
  • Do not interfere with availability, security, or another visitor's use.
  • Do not submit information that violates another person's rights or applicable law.

No Consumer Reports or FCRA Use

Honolulu County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not provide background checks, credit reports, consumer reports, or screening services, and neither its search partners nor advertising partners change that status.

You agree not to use information from these pages or a linked tool for any FCRA-covered purpose, including:

  • Hiring, firing, promotion, or other employment decisions.
  • Tenant, housing, or landlord screening.
  • Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance decisions or premiums.
  • Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility.
  • Any other use regulated by the FCRA.

External Links and Providers

The pages link to HPD, DCR, OCCC, DLE, the Hawaii Judiciary, OIP, BOP, ICE, news outlets, and third-party search tools. Honolulu County Busted Mugshots does not control their content, data handling, security, pricing, terms, or uptime. A link is provided for reference and is not an endorsement or guarantee. Review the outside operator's terms before submitting information.


Information Provided As Is

All content and links are supplied “as is” and “as available.” No warranty is made that the material is:

  • Accurate, complete, or current.
  • Available without interruption.
  • Free of errors, bugs, or security weaknesses.
  • Complete in the results returned by a partner service.

Custody status, public records, web windows, court documents, and agency contacts can change. Nothing on these pages is an official statement from HPD, DCR, DLE, OCCC, a court, BOP, ICE, or another government agency.


Limits on Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the operator and its owners, workers, partners, and providers are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or other damages arising from access to or use of the pages, a search result, an external link, an interruption, or reliance on information.


Your Indemnification Promise

You agree to defend and hold harmless the operator, owners, workers, partners, and providers from claims, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, that arise from your use of the pages, your breach of these terms, or your violation of another person's rights or law.


Ownership and Permission

Text, graphics, logos, layout, and code created for Honolulu County Busted Mugshots belong to the operator or its content partners unless another owner is identified. You may read and link to the pages for lawful personal reference. Copying, redistributing, selling, modifying, framing, or republishing protected material requires written permission or another valid legal right.


Changes to These Terms

These terms may be revised at any time. A new version takes effect when it is posted on this page unless a later effective date is stated. Continued use after posting means you accept the revision.


Access May Be Restricted

Access to all or part of the service may be limited, suspended, or blocked at any time, with or without notice, for any reason. The operator may remove content, disable a feature, or refuse service when it believes that doing so protects the pages, a provider, or another person.


Hawaii Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Hawaii, without applying a conflict-of-law rule that would select another jurisdiction. Any dispute must be brought in a court located in Hawaii, subject to any applicable jurisdictional requirement. The public-record links discuss UIPA and Chapter 92F, but those laws govern the agencies that hold records, not the operator's private service.


If a Provision Fails

If a court finds one part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts continue in effect. The affected language should be narrowed or adjusted only as much as necessary to make it enforceable.


Questions About the Terms

Questions about these terms may be sent through the Contacts page. Questions about an official HPD arrest, DCR custody entry, OCCC record, DLE matter, court docket, BOP result, or ICE matter must be directed to the agency that holds it.
