Information You Hand Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or a location into a search tool on the site, that entry passes to the third-party provider that runs the tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our own end. The provider handles the query 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 it outside our organization unless the law requires us to.
Information We Collect Automatically
Like most websites, ours records some technical details each time a page loads.
- 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 your visit.
Cookies
We use cookies to see how visitors move through the site. You can block or delete them in your browser settings, though some features may behave differently if you do.
How We Use This Information
- To keep the site running and loading quickly.
- To send search requests to the right partner service.
- To learn which pages people find useful.
- To spot 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 click through, the privacy policy of that other site governs what happens to your information, not ours.
Some advertising partners may track activity across different sites to target ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on ours.

We do not sell personal information. It may, however, reach the parties listed below.
- Search partners that process the queries you run.
- Analytics services that measure site use.
- Advertising networks.
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
How We Safeguard Information
We follow standard security practices to protect the data we handle. Even so, no system connected to the internet is ever fully secure, and we cannot promise that a breach will never happen.
Visitors Under 18
The site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
