Information You Provide
Search queries
A name or location entered in a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not keep a separate copy of those search terms.
Messages
Emails or messages sent to the site may be retained to respond. They are not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Technical Data and Cookies
Routine technical data may be collected when a page loads to operate, secure, and understand the service. This can include an IP address, browser and version, device and operating system, pages viewed, time spent, referring page, and timestamps.
Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand site use and support features. Browser controls can limit or reject cookies, although some functions may behave differently when they are blocked.
Why Data Is Used
Collected information may be used to keep the service working, route a search to the relevant partner, measure which resources help visitors, diagnose technical issues, and display advertising that may be relevant.
External Links and Advertising
Links can lead to the Lavaca County Sheriff, county court resources, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, federal locators, and third-party resources. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy practices control. Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across sites.
Possible Recipients
Personal information is not sold. It may be processed by search partners handling a query, analytics providers, advertising networks, or law-enforcement and government bodies responding to a valid legal order.
Security and Minors
Reasonable safeguards are used, but no internet-connected service can guarantee absolute security. This service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from people under 18. A parent or guardian may contact us if a minor has submitted information.
Your Choices and Updates
A visitor may ask for a copy of personal information held, correction of inaccurate information, deletion where applicable, or an opt-out of certain processing. This notice can be revised as the service changes; the posted version applies after an update.
