Information You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or location into a search tool on this site, that query is sent directly to the third-party provider that powers the tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our end. Once the query leaves this page, it is governed by the third party's own privacy policy.
Messages You Send
If you contact us by email or through any feedback channel, we keep your message and contact details long enough to respond. We do not share that correspondence with outside parties unless we are legally required to do so.
Information Gathered Automatically
Like most websites, we collect a set of technical details each time a page loads. That automatic collection typically includes the following.
- Your IP address
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- Which pages you visited and roughly how long you spent on each
- The website or link that brought you here, if any
- Date and time stamps for each page request
Cookies
We use cookies to understand how visitors move through the site and which content is most useful. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Doing so will not prevent you from reading the site, but some features may work differently if cookies are turned off.
How We Use This Information
- To keep the site running reliably and load pages quickly
- To route search requests to the correct partner service
- To understand which pages are most helpful to visitors
- To identify and fix technical problems
- To display advertisements that may match your interests based on browsing behavior
Links to Other Websites
This site links to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections department pages, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you click through to any of those sites, their own privacy policies apply. We are not responsible for how they collect, store, or use your information, and this policy does not extend to them.
Some advertising partners may track your activity across multiple websites in order to show you targeted ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not ours, and is governed by their policies.
Who May Receive Your Information
We do not sell personal information. That said, certain parties may receive data in limited situations.
- Search partners that handle the queries you submit through on-site tools
- Analytics services that help us measure site traffic and performance
- Advertising networks that serve ads on the site
- Law enforcement agencies or government bodies that present a valid legal order requiring us to disclose information
How We Protect Your Information
We follow standard security practices to guard the information collected through this site. No system connected to the internet is completely secure, however, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur. Using this site means accepting that inherent risk.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18 years old. If you believe a minor has submitted information through this site, please contact us so we can delete it promptly.
Your Rights Over Your Data
- Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate
- Request that we delete data we have collected from you
- Opt out of certain types of data processing where permitted by law
Changes to This Policy
We may revise this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, the updated version will appear on this page with a new effective date. Continued use of the site after a revision is posted means you accept the new terms.
