Information You Provide
What You Type Into a Search
When you enter a name or location into a search tool on the site, that text passes 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 a contact form, we keep it so we can reply. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless the law requires it.

- Your IP address
- Your browser and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you view and how long you stay
- The site that referred you, if any
- Date and time stamps

The site links out to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you click through, that destination's own privacy policy governs what happens to your data.
Some advertising partners may track activity across different sites to serve targeted ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not ours.
