Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when visitors use Boulder County Inmate Population, how that information may be used, and when it may be shared. By using the site, visitors accept these privacy practices for this private reference site and the limits that apply once they follow links to government offices, Colorado public-records portals, or outside search providers.

Information Visitors Submit

Search Terms

When a visitor enters a name, location, or similar query into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Boulder County Inmate Population does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.

Messages

If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the submitted name, email address, message text, and any related details may be kept long enough to read, route, and answer the message. Those messages are not shared outside the organization except when disclosure is legally required.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical information when a page loads. That information helps operate the site, diagnose problems, understand traffic patterns, and protect the site from misuse.

  • IP address.
  • Browser name and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and approximate time spent on each page.
  • Referring website, when available.
  • Date and time stamps.

Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and to support advertising or analytics functions. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some site features or partner tools may behave differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • Keep the site available, readable, and reasonably fast.
  • Send search requests to the partner service selected by the visitor.
  • Understand which Boulder County jail, court, mugshot, and facility pages visitors use most.
  • Find technical errors, broken links, abuse patterns, and security concerns.
  • Display advertising that may be based on general browsing or interest signals.

Public Records and Outside Links

This site links to Boulder County jail reports, the Sheriff's Records Request portal, Colorado Judicial Branch resources, CDOC, BOP, ICE, VINELink, and other outside resources. Colorado public-records access can involve the Colorado Open Records Act, C.R.S. § 24-72-201 et seq., and the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act, C.R.S. § 24-72-301 et seq., but those laws govern agency custodians, not this private site. Once a visitor leaves this site, the outside website's privacy policy and record-request rules control.

Advertising partners may collect or use activity information across different websites for interest-based ads on their own systems. This site does not control those outside advertising systems.


Who May Receive Information

Personal data is not sold by Boulder County Inmate Population. It may be received by the following parties when needed for the site to function or when required by law.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers that measure traffic and page performance.
  • Advertising networks involved in ad delivery or measurement.
  • Law enforcement, courts, regulators, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.

Security

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used for site operations, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed to be fully secure. Visitors should not assume that email, web forms, search boxes, or linked third-party systems are breach-proof.


Users Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal information through this site, a deletion request may be sent through the contact route.


Data Choices and Requests

  • Request a copy of personal data this site holds about the requester.
  • Ask that incorrect personal information be corrected.
  • Ask that personal information be deleted where deletion is legally and technically available.
  • Opt out of certain processing where applicable law gives that right.

Policy Changes

This Privacy Notice may be updated from time to time. New language takes effect when posted on this page with the revised effective date or updated page text.
