Video Visit Rules at Larimer County Jail: A Checklist of Behaviors That Can End Visits

Quick Checklist

  • Don’t display gang-related symbols, themes, or colors on camera.
  • Don’t use vulgar language, and don’t show vulgar images.
  • Don’t appear nude on the video visit.
  • Don’t engage in sexually explicit activity during the visit.

These rules apply whether you're at home or somewhere else. Larimer County Detention Center allows off-site video visits using most smartphones, or any internet-connected PC with a webcam and microphone.

Video visits at Larimer County Detention Center are monitored and recorded. Assume everything you say - and everything on camera - can be reviewed. Keep the conversation and your surroundings appropriate the entire time.

Keep it camera-safe: Because visits are monitored and recorded, avoid showing or doing anything on-screen that violates the rules - like gang-related symbols/themes/colors, vulgar language or images, nudity, or sexually explicit activity.

Even if you've done everything right, staff can deny, change, or cancel a video visit at any time. If your visit ends suddenly or gets moved, it may be a facility decision - not something you did wrong.

Some schedule conflicts won't be honored. Video visits that overlap a court appearance or an inmate worker's shift may be canceled. Also, the inmate has to initiate video visitation requests - so if you're waiting to schedule or connect, your loved one needs to start the request from inside.

At Larimer County Detention Center, breaking any video visitation rule results in termination of visitation privileges. Treat the checklist above as a hard line - one mistake can cost you future contact.

Heads up: Staff can deny, change, or cancel visits at their discretion, and rule violations can lead to termination of visitation privileges.

  1. Contact the video visitation vendor about refunds - The facility directs refund questions to the vendor that provides the video visit service.

If your privileges were terminated or a visit was denied and you don't know why, ask your loved one to follow up from inside. Since inmates must initiate video visitation requests, they're in the best position to ask staff what happened and what comes next.
