Information You Provide Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or location into a search tool on the site, that text goes to the third-party provider that runs the tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our own end, since the provider is the one that processes the request.
Messages You Send
If you email us or send a message through a contact form, we keep that message so we can reply. We do not share it outside our organization unless the law requires it.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this one records some technical details each time a page loads.
- Your IP address.
- The browser and version you use.
- Your device type and operating system.
- The pages you view and how long you stay on each.
- The site that referred you, if any.
- The date and time of your visit.
Cookies
Cookies help us see how visitors use the site. You can block them in your browser settings, though some features may work differently if you do.
How We Use This Information

- To learn which pages are useful to visitors.
- To find and fix technical problems.

Links to Other Websites
The site links out to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you follow one of those links, that site's own privacy policy controls what happens to your information.
Some advertising partners may track activity across different websites to target ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on ours.

- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
How We Protect Your Information
We follow standard security practices to guard the information we handle. No internet-connected system is completely secure, though, so we cannot promise that data can never be breached.
