Information You Provide Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or location into a search tool, that text is passed to the third-party provider that runs the tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our own end.
Messages You Send Us
If you email us or use a contact form, we keep your message so we can reply. We do not share it outside our organization unless the law requires it.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, ours records some technical details each time a page loads. These include:
- Your IP address.
- Your browser type and version.
- Your device type and operating system.
- The pages you view and how long you stay on each.
- The site that referred you, if any.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
We use cookies to understand how visitors move through the site. Your browser settings can block them, though some features may behave differently if you do.
How We Use the Information
- To keep the site running and loading quickly.
- To route search requests to the correct partner service.
- To learn which pages are useful and which are not.
- To spot and fix technical problems.
- To show ads that may match your interests.
Links to Other Websites
We link out to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you click through, that destination's own privacy policy governs what happens to your data, not ours.
Some advertising partners may track activity across different sites to serve targeted ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on this one.
Who Might Receive Your Data
We do not sell personal data. It may, however, reach the parties below:
- Search partners that handle your queries.
- Analytics services.
- Advertising networks.
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
How We Protect Your Data
We follow standard security practices to guard the information we handle. Even so, no system connected to the internet is ever completely secure, so we cannot promise it is breach-proof.
Visitors Under 18
This site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor submitted information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Rights Over Your Data
- Ask for a copy of the data we hold about you.
- Ask us to correct information that is wrong.
- Ask us to erase your data.
- Opt out of certain kinds of processing.
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this policy from time to time. When we do, the updated version is posted here with a new effective date.
