Privacy Notice

This notice explains what Jefferson County Released Inmates collects, why we use it, and when another party may receive it. It covers information submitted directly, routine technical data, cookies, partner search tools, advertising, and privacy requests. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Jefferson County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider handles the query under its own terms and privacy policy.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or use a contact form, we keep the message and reply details as needed to answer. We do not share that correspondence outside our organization unless the law requires disclosure.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Like most web services, the site receives basic technical and usage information when a page loads. This data helps us operate the pages and understand performance.

  • Your internet protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when supplied
  • Date and time records for visits

Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and may support partner or advertising functions. You may block cookies through browser controls. Some features can work differently or become unavailable when cookies are disabled.


How We Use Information

We use collected information only for site operations, service routing, measurement, and related business functions.

  • Maintain reliable and responsive pages
  • Send a search request to the selected partner service
  • Measure which Jefferson County topics help readers
  • Detect errors and correct technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Links Beyond This Site

Jefferson County Released Inmates links to Sheriff and jail pages, IDOC systems, courts, release-record sources, and outside search tools. After you follow a link, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use. We do not set the practices of a government portal or third-party provider.

Advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across more than one website and select targeted advertising. That processing occurs through their systems, not ours.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may reach another party when that party performs a site function or when disclosure is legally required.

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure visits and performance
  • Advertising networks that deliver or assess ads
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order

Government record access in Idaho is governed by the law applicable to the government custodian, including Idaho Code Title 74, chapter 1 for state and local executive records. This private-site policy does not replace those agency duties.


Safeguarding Personal Information

We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information in our care. No internet connection, server, storage system, or transmission method is completely secure. We cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under eighteen. If a parent or guardian believes a minor submitted information, they may contact us and request its deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and the information we can verify, you may make the following requests about personal data held by Jefferson County Released Inmates.

  • Ask for a copy of personal data we hold
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Ask us to erase personal data
  • Opt out of certain forms of processing where available

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as site functions, providers, or legal requirements change. A revised version will be posted on this page with a new effective date so readers can identify the current policy.
