Information You Share With Us
Names and Terms You Search
When you type a name or a location into a search tool on this site, that text is passed to the outside provider that powers the tool. That provider runs the lookup and returns results. We do not save or log your search terms on our own end. The provider handles what you enter under its own rules, so the search itself lives with them, not with us.
Contact Form and Email Messages
If you email us or fill out a contact form, we hold onto your message only so we can read it and write back. We do not pass your message or your email address to other companies. The one exception is when a valid court order or other legal demand requires us to turn it over. Outside of that, what you send stays with us.
Information Collected on Its Own
Like most websites, this one records some basic technical details every time a page loads. None of it is meant to name you personally. The list below shows what gets logged when your browser connects.
- Your IP address
- Your browser and its version number
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you open and how long you stay on each
- The site that sent you here, if there was one
- The date and time of each visit
How We Use Cookies
Cookies are small files a site stores in your browser. We use them to learn how visitors move through the pages here. You can turn them off or delete them in your browser settings at any time. Keep in mind that a few features may load or behave differently once cookies are blocked.
Why We Use This Information
The data above serves a handful of practical goals. We rely on it to run the site and to make it more useful, not to build a profile of you. Here is what it goes toward.
- Keeping the site online and loading quickly
- Sending your search to the correct partner service
- Learning which pages readers find helpful
- Spotting and fixing technical problems
- Showing ads that may line up with your interests
Links That Lead Off This Site
Many pages here point you to outside resources. These include the Connecticut Department of Correction inmate search, the Connecticut Judicial Branch case lookup, the New Britain Police Department, federal locators like the Federal Bureau of Prisons and ICE, and third-party search tools. Once you click through, you are on their site, and their privacy policy controls what happens next. We do not run those pages and cannot speak for how they treat your data.
Some advertising partners may also follow what you do across different websites to tailor the ads you see. That tracking happens on their own systems, not on ours. You can review their notices and adjust ad settings directly with each network.
Who May Receive Your Information
We do not sell your personal information to anyone. There are limited situations where data may reach outside parties, and they are listed below.
- Search partners that process the queries you run
- Analytics services that measure how the site is used
- Advertising networks that serve and manage ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Keeping Your Information Safe
We follow common security measures to guard the limited data we handle. Still, no system connected to the internet is ever fully secure. We cannot promise that data will never be reached by someone who should not see it, and no method of storage or transfer is perfect. We do our part, but we cannot guarantee an unbreakable result.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This site is built for adults. We do not knowingly gather information from anyone under the age of 18. If you believe a minor has sent us personal details, please contact us. We will find that information and remove it from our records.
The Choices You Have
Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights over the data we hold about you. You can reach out to us to act on any of the following.
- Ask for a copy of the information we hold
- Ask us to fix details that are wrong
- Ask us to erase your information
- Opt out of certain uses of your data
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this notice from time to time as our practices or the law change. When we do, the updated version will appear on this page with a fresh effective date. We suggest checking back now and then so you stay aware of how your information is handled.
