Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or location entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside company operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its result. We do not retain or record those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email message may be retained for response and internal handling. It is not disclosed outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, servers may automatically receive standard technical and usage details:
- Page-view dates and times
- Your device's IP address
- Browser name and version
- Operating system and device category
- Pages viewed and approximate visit duration
- A referring website, when available
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files saved on a device. They and analytics services help aggregate traffic patterns, including popular pages and points where visits end. Browser controls can block cookies, although disabling them may change how some features work.
What We Do With This Data
- Routing a query to the selected search provider
- Maintaining site operation and load performance
- Diagnosing faults and other technical problems
- Understanding which content visitors use
- Displaying advertising that may reflect user interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not keep, assemble, or sell a database of personal criminal records. The content identifies how to reach Douglas County custodians, Oregon courts, Oregon State Police CJIS, and the Oregon Sex Offender Online Search. This resource is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor information is not turned into consumer reports or third-party criminal profiles.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes. A query submitted to them is governed by their privacy terms, including their retention and disclosure rules. We do not control those practices, so review the provider's policy before using its tool.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to sheriff, court, Oregon agency, legal-aid, or commercial search pages. Once you leave this website, the destination's policy applies. Review it before providing personal information.
Some advertising companies may use their systems to measure activity across websites and select targeted ads.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be available to:
- Analytics providers measuring traffic and performance
- Search providers processing a submitted query
- Advertising networks serving page ads
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal order
How We Protect Your Data
Standard safeguards are used for collected data, but no internet system can be guaranteed secure. Reasonable protective measures do not eliminate every risk of unauthorized access.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. Information identified as belonging to a minor may be requested for deletion.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary with a user's location. Oregon Public Records Law, ORS 192.311–192.478, governs access to government records rather than data held by this private resource. Oregon criminal-history confidentiality and authorized disclosure are addressed in ORS 181A.220 and ORS 181A.245. Subject to applicable law, users may:
- Request access to personal data we hold
- Ask that inaccurate personal data be corrected
- Request deletion where the law permits
- Object to certain forms of processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised. A replacement version will be posted here and identified by its effective date.
