Information You Submit
A name, location, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our systems. A message sent through an available contact channel may include your name, email address, and anything you choose to write. We retain it as reasonably needed to answer and do not share it outside our organization unless required by law.
Technical Data and Cookies
Normal website operations may automatically record an IP address, browser and version, device and operating system, visited pages and time spent, referring page, and timestamps. Cookies and similar technologies help us understand site use and remember basic preferences. A browser can reject cookies, although some features may work differently.
How Information Is Used
- Operate, secure, and improve site performance.
- Send a search request to the selected partner service.
- Understand which pages readers find useful.
- Detect and correct errors or misuse.
- Display advertising that may reflect general interests.
Outside Websites and Advertising
Links lead to JCSO roster pages, Alabama courts and corrections resources, federal locators, news sources, and independent search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy terms control. Advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across websites or tailor ads. That processing occurs on their systems.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be provided to search partners processing a query, analytics vendors, advertising networks, and law-enforcement or government authorities responding to a valid subpoena, court order, or other lawful demand.
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information under our control. No internet transmission, connected system, or storage method is completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under 18
This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, you may ask for a copy of personal data we hold, request correction or deletion, or object to certain processing. Alabama's public-records resident right under Code of Alabama ยง36-12-40 concerns government records; it does not convert this private website into a public custodian. Send a privacy request through Get in Touch, with enough detail to locate the relevant message.
