Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information the site collects, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. It covers data you type in, data gathered automatically as you browse, and the outside services that help run the site. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Provide

Search Terms

When you type a name or a place into a search tool on this site, that text passes to the third-party provider that runs the tool. The site itself does not store or keep a log of the search terms you enter on its own servers.

Messages You Send

If you email or send a contact message, that message is kept only so it can be answered. It is not shared outside the people who run this site unless the law requires it.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, this site records some technical details each time a page loads. Those details include the items below.

  • Your IP address.
  • Your browser and its 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 each visit.

Cookies

Cookies are small files that help show how visitors use the site. You can block or delete them in your browser settings, though some features may work differently if you do.


How the Data Is Used

  • To keep the site running and loading quickly.
  • To send search requests to the right partner service.
  • To see which pages are useful to visitors.
  • To find and fix technical problems.
  • To show ads that may match a visitor's interests.

Links to Other Sites

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 other site governs how it handles your data, not this one.

Some advertising partners may track activity across different websites to serve targeted ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on this site.


Who May Receive Your Data

This site does not sell personal data. It may still reach the parties listed below.

  • Search partners that handle the queries you run.
  • Analytics services that measure site use.
  • Advertising networks.
  • Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.

How Your Data Is Protected

Reasonable security measures are used to guard the information collected. Even so, no system connected to the internet is completely secure, and no promise of a breach-proof system can be made.


Visitors Under 18

This site is meant for adults. It does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor sent data through the site, get in touch and it will be deleted.


Your Choices and Rights

  • Ask for a copy of the data held about you.
  • Ask to correct information that is wrong.
  • Ask to have your data erased.
  • Opt out of certain kinds of processing.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may change over time. Any update will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
