Information You Submit
Search Entries
A name, place, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party provider operating that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms govern its handling of the query.
Messages Sent to Us
Email or contact-form messages may be retained so we can respond and keep a record of the exchange. We do not share those messages outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically

- Detect and correct technical problems
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Other Websites and Advertising
The site links to Prince George’s County Corrections, the Sheriff, Police, Maryland courts, DPSCS, federal and immigration locators, and third-party search services. Once a visitor follows an external link, that destination’s privacy policy applies.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and provide interest-based advertising. Their tracking occurs under their controls, not as a record maintained by this site. Maryland Public Information Act rules, including General Provisions Article Title 4, govern requests to Maryland agencies, not the privacy practices of this private site.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be available to:
- Search partners that must process a submitted query
- Analytics providers supporting usage measurement
- Advertising networks delivering advertisements
- Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard safeguards appropriate to a public website. No internet-connected service can promise absolute security, so we cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, lost, or disclosed without authorization.
Visitors Under Eighteen
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify a request, a person may:
- Ask for a copy of personal information we hold
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information
- Ask that personal information be erased
- Opt out of certain processing when that right applies
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this notice as site practices or legal requirements change. A revised version becomes effective when posted here with its new effective date.
