Information You Submit
Search Terms
When a name, county, or other search detail is entered into a partner search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. This site does not store those search terms in its own records.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.
Information Collected Automatically
Basic technical data may be collected when a page loads, including:
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device category and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand how visitors move through the site. You can block cookies in your browser settings, but some features, analytics, or advertising functions may behave differently after cookies are disabled.
How the Information Is Used
- To keep the website available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To pass search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which San Luis Obispo County custody and records pages are useful.
- To diagnose broken pages, errors, or performance issues.
- To display advertising that may be based on visitor interests.
Outside Websites and Public Records Links
This site links to San Luis Obispo County jail pages, Sheriff's Office resources, CDCR, court portals, BOP, ICE, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy and data practices of the outside website apply.
Some pages discuss public-records access under the California Public Records Act, including Gov. Code ยง 7920.000 et seq. and related CPRA timing rules. Submitting a request to a government agency is separate from using this private website, and the agency's own records policies control that process.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across different websites for interest-based ads. That tracking is controlled by those partners, not by the San Luis Obispo County jail or court agencies linked here.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold by this site. It may be received by limited service providers or authorities in these situations:
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and site performance.
- Advertising networks used to support the site.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled by this site. No internet-connected service can be guaranteed breach-proof, and no transmission or storage method is completely secure.
