Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information may be collected when people use Modoc County Released Inmates, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using this site, visitors accept the data practices described here.

Information You Provide

Search Terms

When a name, location, or other query is entered into a search box, that request is sent to the third-party provider operating the search tool. This site does not maintain its own jail roster or store those partner-search terms as official records.

Messages

If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it, respond, and manage any related site issue. Messages are not shared outside the site operation unless disclosure is required by law.


Automatic Technical Data

Routine technical information may be collected when pages load. This helps operate the site, understand traffic, and diagnose problems.

  • IP address.
  • Browser name and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages visited and approximate time on each page.
  • Referring website, when available.
  • Date and time of the visit.

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools may be used for analytics, advertising, and site performance. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features or partner tools may behave differently when cookies are disabled.


How Data Is Used

  • Keep pages available and functioning.
  • Route search requests to the proper partner service.
  • Understand which release-record pages are being used.
  • Find errors, broken links, and performance issues.
  • Show advertising that may be more relevant to visitors.

Outside Links

Pages link to government offices, sheriff and court resources, corrections systems, public-record portals, and third-party search providers. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination site's privacy policy and terms control that activity.

Advertising and analytics partners may collect information through their own systems and may use it across more than one website. Their practices are not controlled by this site.


Who May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold as a standalone list. It may be received by limited parties when needed to operate the site or comply with law.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers that measure traffic and technical performance.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.

Data Security

Reasonable security practices are used to protect site data, but no internet-connected service can be promised as breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive personal details that are not needed for a site question.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, a deletion request may be sent through the contact page.


Your Data Choices

  • Ask what personal data is held by the site.
  • Request correction of inaccurate contact information.
  • Request deletion when retention is not legally required.
  • Opt out of certain processing where applicable law allows it.

Policy Updates

This Privacy Policy may be revised from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page with an updated effective date or visible revised text.
