Marion County Recent Arrests is privately owned. It is not connected with any government body, sheriff's office, jail, or corrections department. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers services for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or any use regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The site points visitors toward Marion County and Iowa jail, custody, and public-record resources. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.
Purpose and Ownership
This is a private reference service with no ties to Marion County government, the Marion County Sheriff's Office, the Marion County Jail, the Iowa Department of Corrections, or any federal agency. It does not store official arrest or jail records. Staff cannot confirm custody, change a release date, release a person, or file a request or court document for a visitor.
Its function is limited to identifying official Marion County and Iowa record resources and offering links to outside research tools. Information reached through those links remains under the control of the office or provider that publishes it.

- Do not use the site in violation of any law.
- Do not use information to stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten another person.
- Do not rely on site content for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions.
- Do not attempt to enter accounts, servers, or systems without authorization.
- Do not operate bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools against the site.
- Do not interfere with service or prevent other visitors from using it.
FCRA Uses Are Prohibited

Outside Resources
Links may lead to the Marion County jail roster and booking dashboard, sheriff or corrections sites, government portals, legal-aid resources, and outside search services. A link is provided for convenience and is not an endorsement. Marion County Recent Arrests does not control a destination's content, privacy practices, data handling, accuracy, or availability. Review that provider's terms before using its service.
No Warranties
The site and all content are provided “as is” and “as available.” No warranty or guarantee is made about:
- The accuracy, completeness, or current status of information
- Continuous or uninterrupted availability
- Freedom from errors, bugs, or security flaws
- The scope or completeness of a partner's search results
Custody status, booking records, and court entries can change without notice. Nothing published here is an official statement by the Marion County Sheriff's Office, Marion County Jail, Iowa Department of Corrections, or another government agency.

Updates to These Terms
These terms may be revised at any time. A new version becomes effective when it is posted on this page. Continued use after posting means the visitor accepts the revised terms.
Suspension of Access
Access may be limited, suspended, or blocked at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice. This right includes action taken to protect the site, its users, or outside systems.
Iowa Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Iowa, without regard to rules that would apply another jurisdiction's law. Any dispute must be filed in a court located within Iowa. References to public access use Iowa's actual Chapter 22 framework, but this private site is not a government records custodian.
Severability
If a court finds one part of these terms invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. The affected term will be narrowed or adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
