Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or location entered into a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not keep a separate log of those search terms.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be retained long enough to review and answer it. We keep the message within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, servers may automatically receive basic technical details about that visit:
- Page-view dates and times
- The device's assigned IP address
- Browser type and version
- Operating system and device category
- Visited pages and approximate time spent
- A referring website, when available
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They help show aggregate patterns such as popular pages and common exit points. Analytics providers may process that traffic information. A browser can block cookies, although doing so may change how some features work.
What We Do With This Data
- Diagnosing errors and other technical problems
- Operating the website and improving load speed
- Routing a search to the selected outside provider
- Measuring which content is useful or needs revision
- Selecting advertising that may match visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not maintain, compile, or sell a database of personal criminal-record information. The published material identifies official La Paz County and Arizona custodians, including the sheriff, local courts, Arizona DPS Criminal History Records, ADCRR, and Arizona DPS OffenderWatch. Visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or third-party criminal files, and this website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by that provider's privacy policy, retention choices, and sharing practices rather than this policy. Review those terms before running a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the La Paz County Sheriff's Office, Arizona court portals, state agencies, legal resources, or outside search services. Once you leave this website, the destination's own privacy policy controls. Read it before providing personal information.
Advertising providers may use their systems to recognize activity across websites and select targeted ads.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Limited information may be available to:
- Analytics vendors measuring traffic and performance
- Search partners receiving a query submitted to their tool
- Advertising networks serving ads on the pages
- A government or law-enforcement body acting under valid legal process
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices are used to protect collected data. No internet system can guarantee complete security, so a breach-free service cannot be promised.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A reported minor's information will be reviewed for deletion.
Your Data Rights
Applicable law may provide additional rights. Arizona public agency records are governed by the Arizona Public Records Law, including A.R.S. §§ 39-121 and 39-121.01, while criminal-history dissemination is separately controlled by A.R.S. § 41-1750. Those statutes do not convert this private site into a government custodian. You may still:
- Request access to personal data held about you
- Ask for correction of inaccurate information
- Seek deletion when the law permits it
- Decline certain forms of processing where a right applies
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised. A new version becomes available here with an updated effective date, so review this page periodically for changes.
Effective date: July 15, 2026
