CrimeoMeter Terms of Service
By using our products and services, you (the "Client") agree to the following Terms of Service.​
1. Disclaimer
​​
1.1 Crime Data
​​
Crime data and 911 calls available through CrimeoMeter are sourced from law enforcement agencies and news reports. Law enforcement agencies who report crime publicly do so voluntarily, at different time intervals and levels of specificity, and some choose to only provide data on certain crimes. In addition, law enforcement agencies may categorize and report the same crimes differently. Therefore, the crime data displayed by CrimeoMeter may contain information that is incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated, and information available for one area should not be compared to another area or assumed to be complete.
This information is meant to be a starting point for evaluating safety around an area. Conclusions drawn from, or actions undertaken on the basis of, such data and information are the sole responsibility of the user.
​​
1.2 Sex Offenders Data
​​
Registered Sex Offender data is transmitted for informational use only and CrimeoMeter makes no representation, express or implied, that the registered sex offender data is accurate.
Access to Sex Offender data is offered without warranty. Any access to, or use of, this data is the responsibility of the service user, and shall be done only in accordance with all applicable laws and ordinances. Any response to this data, including updates, inaccuracies or ‘tips’ for action should be made directly to the agency with jurisdiction, or to the state’s sex offender management unit.
Accessing any data or content provided by CrimeoMeter indicates understanding and acceptance of these Terms of Service.

​2. Data Citation Policy
​
Whenever you display data sourced from CrimeoMeter, the Client must provide clear attribution. The preferred format is:
​​
