Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information Jefferson Davis Parish Released Inmates receives, how that information supports site operations, and the limited situations in which it may be shared. It covers search activity sent to outside tools, messages sent directly to us, routine technical records, and cookies. By using the site, a visitor accepts the practices described here. A linked sheriff, corrections agency, court, locator, advertiser, or search provider applies its own policy once a visitor enters that service.

Information You Choose to Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates the search function. That provider receives and processes the query under its own privacy terms. Jefferson Davis Parish Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Emails and Contact Messages

When someone sends an email or uses a contact form, the message and supplied contact details are kept as needed to read and answer the request. Contact submissions are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law. Messages should not include sensitive custody identifiers or private facts that are unnecessary for the question.


Technical Details Received Automatically

Normal web operations create limited technical data each time a page loads. This information helps deliver the requested page, understand general use, and diagnose service problems. It may include:

  • The visitor's Internet Protocol address
  • The browser name, type, and version
  • The device class and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when one is supplied
  • Date and time records for the request

Cookie Use

Cookies and similar browser storage may be used to measure how visitors move through the site and to support site functions. A visitor can block or remove cookies through browser settings. Some features, preferences, analytics, advertising, or search behavior may work differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Supports the Service

  • Operate the pages reliably and maintain reasonable speed
  • Send a search request to the appropriate partner tool
  • Measure which release-record pages visitors find useful
  • Detect, investigate, and repair technical faults
  • Present advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy Beyond These Pages

Links may lead to the Jefferson Davis Parish Sheriff, Louisiana DPS&C, VINE, courts, federal custody locators, other government portals, or third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows an outbound link, the destination's privacy notice and data practices apply. Jefferson Davis Parish Released Inmates does not control how an outside service collects, retains, or uses information.

Advertising partners may use their own technology to recognize activity across different websites and select interest-based advertising. Any such tracking occurs through the partner's systems and is governed by that partner's choices and policy, not by a separate visitor profile maintained here.


Parties That May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold. Limited data may nevertheless reach service providers or public authorities when needed for the functions described in this notice:

  • Search partners that receive and process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure page and service use
  • Advertising networks that deliver and assess advertisements
  • Law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

Standard administrative and technical safeguards are used to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No website, network, storage service, or method of Internet transmission is completely secure. Jefferson Davis Parish Released Inmates therefore cannot promise that a breach will never occur or that transmitted information will remain secure in every circumstance.


Visitors Younger Than Eighteen

The service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted personal data may contact us and request deletion. Once the issue is verified, reasonable steps will be taken to remove information held by this site.


Choices About Personal Data

  • Ask for a copy of personal information held about you
  • Request correction of information that is inaccurate
  • Request deletion of personal information where applicable
  • Object to or opt out of certain forms of processing

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as the service, vendors, or legal requirements change. An updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use after publication means the revised notice governs later activity.
