Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when you use Garfield County Inmate Population, how that information may be used, and when it may be shared. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Provide

Search Terms

When you type a name, location, or similar search detail into a partner search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Garfield County Inmate Population does not keep its own database of those search terms.

Messages

If you send an email or message to this site, we may keep the details you provide long enough to review and respond. We do not share those messages outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement makes disclosure necessary.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, the site may receive routine technical information when a page loads, including:

  • Your IP address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device category and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
  • The referring website, when one is passed along.
  • Date and time stamps connected to visits.

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand traffic patterns, measure page performance, support ads, and improve the site. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some features or measurements may work differently afterward.


How Information Is Used

  • To keep the website available, readable, and responsive.
  • To send search requests to the correct partner service when you choose to use one.
  • To understand which Garfield County jail, roster, court, and locator pages are useful to readers.
  • To detect errors, abuse, performance problems, and security issues.
  • To support advertising that may be based on general interests or browsing signals.

Outside Websites

This site links to the Garfield County jail roster, the sheriff's office, the Court Clerk, OSCN, ODOC, VINELink, BOP, ICE, and private search tools. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy and terms of the destination site apply.

Advertising providers and search partners may use their own systems to measure activity or personalize ads across websites. Their tracking and opt-out choices are controlled by those providers, not by this site.


Who May Receive Information

We do not sell personal data as a standalone list. Information may be made available to limited parties when needed for site operation or legal compliance:

  • Search partners that process queries you submit through their tools.
  • Analytics providers that measure traffic and usage.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid legal order.

Security

Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled by the site. No internet-connected service can be guaranteed completely secure, so this notice does not promise that unauthorized access, loss, or misuse can never occur.


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 information, contact us so the information can be reviewed for deletion.


Your Choices and Rights

  • Ask for a copy of personal information this site maintains about you.
  • Request correction of information that is inaccurate.
  • Ask for deletion when retention is not legally required.
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing where applicable.

Notice Updates

This privacy notice may be revised as the site, search partners, or legal requirements change. Updates will be posted on this page with the revised wording taking effect when published.
