Privacy Notice

This notice describes what information the site receives, how it is used, and when outside services may receive it. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Search Terms

A name or location entered in a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. Owyhee County Recent Arrests does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages You Send

If you email or submit a contact message, we retain the information needed to respond. It is not shared beyond the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Automatic Technical Information

Routine technical data may be collected when a page loads. This can include:

  • Your Internet Protocol address.
  • Browser name and version.
  • Device category and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring website, when available.
  • Date and time stamps.

Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You may block them through your browser settings, although some site functions may then work differently.


How Information Is Used

  • Operate the site and maintain responsive performance.
  • Send search requests to the selected partner service.
  • Measure which pages visitors find useful.
  • Detect and correct technical problems.
  • Present advertising that may reflect a visitor’s interests.

Websites and Advertising Partners

Links may lead to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, booking sources, or outside search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.

Some advertising providers may measure activity across multiple sites to select ads. That processing occurs on their systems, not on systems controlled by Owyhee County Recent Arrests.


When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Data may be available to these limited recipients:

  • Search partners that process a submitted query.
  • Analytics providers that measure site activity.
  • Advertising networks that deliver ads.
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.

Data Security

Reasonable, commonly used safeguards are applied to information under our control. No internet service or connected storage system is fully secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may contact us to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal information we hold.
  • Request correction of inaccurate information.
  • Ask that eligible personal information be erased.
  • Opt out of certain processing where the law provides that right.

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised. Any new version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
