Jefferson Privacy Notice

This notice describes information collected through this site, how it is used, when another service may receive it, and the choices available to visitors. Using the site means accepting these practices.

Information You Submit

Search entries

A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages

If you email or send a contact message, we retain the information needed to respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.


Automatic Technical Data

Ordinary server, analytics, and browser processes may collect technical details when a page loads.

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent
  • The referring site, when available
  • Access dates and timestamps

Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or delete them, though some functions may work differently after cookies are blocked.


How Data Is Used

Collected information supports the operation of the site and its search features.

  • Maintain performance and availability
  • Send a search request to the selected partner
  • Understand which pages visitors find useful
  • Diagnose and correct technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Sites Beyond Our Control

Links may lead to JPSO, Louisiana DPS&C, courts, release-record portals, federal locators, and outside search tools. After a visitor leaves, the destination's privacy terms govern its collection and use. Some advertising companies may also track activity across websites for interest-based ads. That processing takes place through their systems.


When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be available to parties that perform a needed function.

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

Reasonable Security Measures

Standard safeguards are used to protect information under our control. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, however, and this notice does not guarantee that a breach can never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under eighteen. If a minor submitted information, use the Contacts page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify the request, a visitor may exercise the following choices.

  • Ask for a copy of personal data we hold
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal data
  • Ask for deletion of eligible information
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as services or practices change. A new version will be posted here with an updated effective date.
