Information Provided Directly
Search queries
A name, location, or other term typed into a site search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. The site does not store or log the terms on its own systems. The provider’s own privacy notice governs how it handles a submitted query.
Messages
An email or contact-form message may be retained so a response can be sent and the correspondence can be managed. Messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or needed to protect legal rights or safety.
Automatic Technical Information
Like many websites, the service and its providers can receive routine technical information when a page is loaded. This information helps operate, secure, measure, and improve the service.
- Internet protocol address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and time spent on them.
- Referring source, if one is available.
- Date and time of the request.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use and enable some functions. A visitor can block or remove cookies through browser settings, although some features may work differently after doing so.
How Information Is Used
Collected technical information and messages may be used to keep the site operating, understand which pages are useful, route a search request to its provider, investigate technical problems, and support advertising that may be relevant to a visitor’s interests.
- Maintain performance, reliability, and security.
- Process and route search-tool requests.
- Measure content use and improve navigation.
- Detect, prevent, and repair technical issues.
- Support advertising and referral relationships.
Outside Links and Advertising
The site links to jail rosters, booking reports, sheriff pages, courts, corrections resources, government portals, and outside search services. Their privacy rules apply after a visitor follows the link. This site does not control their uptime, content, practices, or tracking.
Advertising providers may collect activity across sites under their own systems for interest-based advertising. That activity is governed by the provider’s policies, not by this site’s control.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold as a standalone product. Limited information can be handled by service providers or disclosed in the circumstances below.
- Search partners that receive submitted search requests.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure advertising.
- Law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order.
Security, Minors, and Choices
Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information, but no internet-connected system can promise complete security. The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may request its removal.
A visitor may ask for a copy of personal data held, correction of inaccurate data, deletion where appropriate, or an opt-out of certain processing. Requests can be made through Contact Us. This policy can change as services or legal requirements change. A new version takes effect when posted here.
