Information submitted directly
Search queries
A name or place entered into a search tool is passed to the independent provider that operates that tool. The site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
An email or contact-form message may be retained so it can be answered. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical data collected automatically
Like most web services, the site and its service providers may receive IP address, browser and version, device type and operating system, pages viewed, time spent, referring site, and timestamps. Cookies may be used to understand use of the site. Browser settings can restrict cookies, although some features may then work differently.
How information is used
Technical and submitted data may be used to operate and improve the site, route a query to the selected search partner, identify useful content, diagnose technical issues, and show advertising that may be based on interests.
Links and advertising partners
Links may lead to jail rosters, booking interfaces, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, or outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the other provider’s privacy policy controls. Advertising partners may track activity across sites on their own systems for interest-based advertising.
Who may receive data
Personal information is not sold. It can be handled by search partners that process queries, analytics providers, advertising networks, and government or law-enforcement bodies when a valid legal demand requires disclosure.
Security limits
Reasonable safeguards are used for information handled by the site, but no internet-connected system can be guaranteed secure. Visitors should avoid including unnecessary sensitive details in messages.
Visitors under 18
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from people under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor supplied information may contact us to request deletion.
Your privacy choices
A person may ask what personal information is held, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion where applicable, or ask to opt out of certain processing. Requests can be sent through Get in Touch.
