Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
When you enter a name, location, or other term into a search box, the query is sent to the independent provider operating that tool. Taylor County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's policy governs its handling of the query.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or submit a contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share a message outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Routine logs and service tools may record technical information when a page loads, including:
- Your Internet Protocol address.
- The browser name and version in use.
- Your device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is supplied.
- The date and time of the request.
Cookie Use
Cookies may help measure how visitors move through the site. You can restrict or block cookies through browser controls, although doing so may change how some features operate.
Reasons We Use Data
- Operate the site and maintain reasonable performance.
- Send a search request to the selected partner service.
- Understand which Taylor County release and records pages are useful.
- Detect errors and repair technical problems.
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Privacy on Linked Services
Links may lead to Taylor County release records, Sheriff's pages, TDCJ resources, government portals, federal locators, or outside search providers. Once you leave this site, the destination's own privacy terms apply.
Some advertising companies may use their systems to measure activity across multiple websites and select targeted ads. That tracking occurs under the advertising company's controls, not as a Taylor County Released Inmates record.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Data may be disclosed only as needed to the following categories:
- Search partners that process a query you submit.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks serving or evaluating ads.
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order.
Security Practices
We use standard safeguards suited to an online reference site. No internet service, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed fully secure, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Younger Than 18
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, use the Contacts page to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
- Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Ask that eligible personal data be erased.
- Object to or opt out of certain processing where applicable.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this Privacy Notice as practices or legal requirements change. A new version takes effect when posted here with an updated effective date. Texas public-record access through linked agencies is governed separately, including by Texas Government Code Chapter 552.
