Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or location into a search tool on the site, that entry goes 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
If you email us or send a message through the site, we keep it only to reply. We do not share it outside our organization unless the law requires it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Like most websites, ours records some technical details each time a page loads.
- Your IP address.
- Your browser type and version.
- Your device type and operating system.
- The pages you open and how long you stay on each.
- The site that referred you, if there was one.
- The date and time of your visit.
Cookies
We use cookies to understand how visitors move through the site. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some features may behave differently if you do.
What We Do With This Data
- Keep the site running and loading quickly.
- Send each search request to the right partner service.
- Learn which pages people find useful.
- Spot and fix technical problems.
- Show advertising that may match a visitor's interests.
Links to Other Websites
This site links out to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you click through, the privacy policy of that destination governs what happens to your data, not ours.
Some advertising partners may also track activity across different sites to serve targeted ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on this one.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. It may, however, reach the parties listed below.
- Search partners that handle the queries you submit.
- Analytics services that measure site use.
- 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 fully secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never happen.
Users Under 18
This site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted data, contact us and we will remove it.
Your Data Rights
