Information Collected
Search terms entered into a sponsored or third-party search widget may be sent to that search provider, not just to this site. The provider may collect the query, selected search type, IP address, device data, payment details if a paid service is used, and other information described in its own privacy policy.
If you send a message to this site, the message may include your name, email address, subject, and the information you choose to provide. You should not send sensitive details when the correct task is an official CDCR, county jail, court, BOP, ICE, VINE, or facility request.
Automatic Data And Cookies
Like most websites, this site may collect technical information automatically. That can include IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages viewed, referring page, timestamps, approximate location derived from technical data, and usage patterns.
Cookies, pixels, local storage, or similar tools may be used for analytics, advertising, fraud prevention, basic site operation, partner attribution, and performance measurement. Browser settings may let you block or delete cookies, but some features may not work as intended.
How Information Is Used
Information may be used to operate the site, respond to messages, understand which California inmate population pages are used, maintain security, detect abuse, measure advertising or partner performance, improve navigation, and comply with legal obligations.
This site does not operate the official public agency portals it links to. CDCR, county sheriffs, superior courts, BOP, ICE, VINE, and partner search providers control their own collection, storage, update schedules, privacy rules, and security practices.
Sharing Information
Information may be shared with search partners, hosting providers, analytics services, advertising networks, fraud-prevention vendors, technical service providers, payment or affiliate platforms, and professional advisers when needed to operate the site. Information may also be disclosed to law enforcement, courts, regulators, or other parties when required by valid legal process or to protect rights, safety, or security.
Outbound links may take you to official California agency pages, county sites, court portals, federal systems, immigration systems, VINE, or commercial partners. Their privacy policies apply after you leave this site.
Security And Retention
Reasonable safeguards may be used to protect information, but no internet-connected site, email message, search form, or vendor system can be guaranteed secure. Information may be retained as long as needed for site operation, legal compliance, dispute handling, security, analytics, or business records.
Children And Data Rights
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you believe a minor has provided personal information directly to this site, use the available contact route so it can be reviewed.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or opt out of certain data uses. California residents may have rights under California privacy laws when those laws apply. Requests are handled based on the information this site controls, not records held by CDCR, sheriffs, courts, BOP, ICE, VINE, or partner providers.
Policy Updates
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The posted version controls use of the site after the update appears.
