Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or location entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that service. The provider processes the request and supplies its results. We do not keep or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email sent to us may be retained to prepare and document a response. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our systems automatically receive basic technical information when a page loads:
- Your device's IP address
- Browser name and version
- Operating system and device category
- Viewed pages and approximate visit duration
- Referring website, when available
- Page-view dates and times
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small device files that help measure site use, including popular pages and typical exit points. Analytics providers combine this traffic information for reporting. Browser controls can reject cookies, although blocking them may change how some features work.
What We Do With This Data
- Operating, maintaining, and improving site performance
- Routing a submitted search to the selected outside service
- Understanding which resources visitors use
- Finding and resolving technical faults
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not maintain, compile, or sell a database of personal criminal records. The site explains how to reach SBSO, the 34th JDC Clerk, Louisiana State Police BCII, and the Louisiana State Sex Offender and Child Predator Registry. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not assembled into consumer reports or criminal profiles about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by that provider's privacy policy. Each partner controls its own retention and disclosure practices, so review those terms before using a search.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to SBSO, the Clerk, Louisiana agencies, legal-aid resources, or commercial services. Once you leave this site, the destination's own privacy rules apply. Review them before providing personal information.
Advertising providers may measure activity across websites to select ads. Their systems, rather than ours, conduct that tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be disclosed to:
- Search providers processing a request you initiate
- Analytics vendors measuring use and performance
- Advertising networks serving content
- Government or law-enforcement authorities acting under valid legal process
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices protect the information we control. No internet service is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access will never occur.
