Information you provide
Search entries
A name, place, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. We do not keep or log those search terms on our own systems.
Messages
If you send us an email or other contact message, we retain the information needed to respond. We do not disclose message content outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical data collected automatically
When a page loads, standard web services may receive technical information such as:
- Your internet protocol address.

- Your device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and the time spent on them.
- The referring site, when available.
- Access dates and times.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools help us understand site use and maintain basic site functions. You can block cookies through browser settings, although some functions may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How we use information
- Operate and improve the site.
- Send search requests to the selected partner service.
- Understand which pages visitors find useful.
- Diagnose and resolve technical problems.
- Display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor’s interests.
Links beyond this site
Our pages link to official jail rosters, government record portals, sheriff and corrections resources, and outside search tools. Once you follow a link, that organization’s privacy practices and terms apply. Official public-record requests to Texas agencies are governed by Texas Government Code Chapter 552, not by this private-site notice.
Some advertising partners may collect activity across websites to deliver interest-based advertising through their own systems. We do not control their data practices.
Parties that may receive data
We do not sell personal information. Information may be processed or disclosed to the following parties when applicable:
- Search partners that receive a submitted query.
- Analytics providers that help measure site performance.
- Advertising networks that serve advertising.
- Law-enforcement or government entities when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security practices
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information. No internet-connected service can guarantee complete security, so we cannot promise that a transmission or stored record will never be accessed, altered, or lost.
