Information Collected
Search terms entered into sponsored search tools may be sent to the third-party provider that powers that tool. Contact messages may include a name, email address, phone number, and any details included in the message. Standard technical data may also be collected automatically, such as browser type, device information, pages viewed, referring page, approximate location from IP address, and time of visit.
Cookies or similar technologies may be used for site function, analytics, advertising measurement, fraud prevention, and remembering tool preferences. Browser settings can usually limit or delete cookies, although some features may work less smoothly after that change.
How Information Is Used
Information may be used to operate the site, respond to messages, maintain security, understand which release-record pages are useful, improve page organization, and support advertising or search-partner functions. Search partners, analytics providers, ad networks, hosting providers, and technical vendors may receive information needed to perform those services.
Information may also be disclosed if required by law, subpoena, court order, government request, or a reasonable need to protect the site, users, or others from misuse or security risk.
Outside Links
The site links to KCSO, Kern Superior Court, CDCR, VINE, BOP, ICE, California law pages, and other official or third-party resources. Those sites have their own privacy practices. When a reader leaves this site, the outside site controls its own data collection, records access, account login, payment process, and security settings.
Data Choices and Limits
Do not send sensitive case facts through a general contact message if the information belongs with a sheriff's office, court, attorney, CDCR, BOP, or ICE. A request to update or delete a contact message can be submitted through the available contact channel. Some data may be retained when needed for security, records, legal compliance, fraud prevention, or backup integrity.
This site is not directed to children under 18. Security safeguards are used on a best-effort basis, but no website or email system can guarantee absolute security. This notice may be updated as site tools, vendors, or laws change, including California privacy and public-records rules.
