Information You Provide
Search Entries
When a name, location, or other search detail is typed into a search tool, that entry may be sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or other message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and handle follow-up. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal duty requires disclosure.
Automatic Data
Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical data when a page loads. That information helps measure traffic, diagnose problems, and understand whether pages about Butte County jail records and Idaho custody resources are working as intended.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on pages.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time of the visit.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use and support advertising or analytics. A browser can block or delete cookies, though some parts of the site or partner tools may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How Data Is Used
Information collected through this site is used for limited operational and measurement purposes.
- Keeping pages available, readable, and fast.
- Sending search requests to the correct partner provider.
- Learning which Butte County and Idaho custody pages are most useful.
- Finding errors, broken links, or security issues.
- Showing ads that may be based on general visitor interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to sheriff, jail, court, corrections, VINELink, BOP, ICE, and third-party search resources. Once a visitor leaves this site, the linked site's own privacy policy and terms control how information is collected and used.
Advertising partners may also use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and serve interest-based ads. Those practices happen on the partner's systems, not through a record database hosted here.
Who May Receive Data
Personal data is not sold as a standalone list. It may be available to limited parties that help operate the site, process searches, or comply with law.
- Search partners that receive search requests.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that support ad delivery.
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it.
Security Practices
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled by this site. No internet-connected service can be promised as breach-proof, so users should avoid sending information they do not want handled online.
