Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name or location entered in a search box passes to the outside provider that operates that tool. We do not keep or log those search terms on our own systems.
Messages Sent to Us
We retain an email or contact message as needed to answer it. We do not share that message outside our organization unless the law requires disclosure.
Technical Visit Data
A normal page request can create limited technical and usage records, including:
- the requesting internet protocol address;
- browser name and version;
- device type and operating system;
- pages viewed and time spent on them;
- the referring website, when supplied; and
- the date and time of each request.
Cookie Controls
Cookies help show how visitors use the site. You may block them in your browser, though some functions may then work differently.
Reasons We Use Data
Collected data is used only for ordinary service, measurement, troubleshooting, and advertising functions.
- operate the site and maintain reasonable speed;
- send a search request to the chosen partner;
- understand which content visitors use;
- detect and repair technical faults; and
- display advertising that may reflect likely interests.
Privacy on Linked Services
Links may lead to police logs, CT DOC custody tools, court portals, other government sources, and third-party search products. Once you leave, the destination's own privacy rules control.
Some advertising providers may measure activity across different sites to select ads. That processing occurs on their systems, not ours.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal data. Limited information may be handled by:
- search partners that process a submitted query;
- analytics vendors that measure site use;
- advertising networks; and
- law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
We use ordinary safeguards suited to the information involved. No online service is fully secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Adults Only
The service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian may contact us to request deletion if a minor submitted data.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on the law that applies, you may make the following requests about personal data held by us.
- ask for a copy of personal data we hold;
- request correction of inaccurate data;
- ask that eligible data be deleted; and
- object to or opt out of certain processing where applicable.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this privacy notice. A new version will be posted here with an updated effective date.
