Searches and Messages
When a name, county, or location is typed into a search box, that query is sent to the third-party provider that powers the search tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message is used to read it and respond. It is not shared outside the operating team unless a valid legal requirement applies.
Technical Data and Cookies
Like most websites, each page load may create basic technical data used for security, measurement, and troubleshooting.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time on page.
- Referring page or site, when available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies may be used to understand site use and support advertising or analytics. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features may behave differently after blocking them.
How Data Is Used
Collected data is used for ordinary operation and improvement of the site.

Outside Sites and Partners
This site links to jail rosters, sheriff pages, court portals, corrections tools, federal locators, and third-party search providers. Once a user leaves this site, the other site's privacy policy and data practices apply.
Some advertising providers may collect or use browsing activity across websites for ad targeting. That tracking occurs through their systems, not through a separate inmate-record database operated here.
Who May Receive Data
Personal data is not sold as a mailing list. It may be shared with limited service providers or authorities when needed.
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics services that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that help fund the site.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security and Age Limit
Reasonable security practices are used, but no internet-connected system can be guaranteed breach-proof. Do not send sensitive personal details through an unsecured message if a government office is the proper record custodian.
This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, use the contact page to request deletion.
