Information You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or location into a search tool on the site, that query goes to the third-party provider that powers the search. We do not store or log those search terms on our own end. The provider handles them under its own privacy terms.
Messages You Send
If you email us or send a message through a contact form, we keep it only to reply. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless the law requires it.
Information Collected 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 view and how long you spend 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. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some features may behave differently if you do.
How We Use This Information
The data we collect serves a short list of practical purposes, all aimed at keeping the site useful.
- To keep the site running and loading quickly.
- To pass search requests to the right partner service.
- To learn which pages people find useful.
- To spot and fix technical problems.
- To display ads that may match a visitor's interests.
Links to Other Sites
The 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 track activity across different websites to serve targeted ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on this one.
Who May Receive Your Information
We do not sell personal data. It may, however, reach the parties listed here.
- 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 Information
We follow standard security practices to guard the data we handle. Even so, no system connected to the internet is ever fully secure, and we cannot guarantee that a breach will never happen.
Visitors Under 18
This site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted data, contact us and we will delete it.

- Ask us to correct information that is wrong.

Changes to This Policy
