Information You Provide
Search Terms
When a name, location, or other search detail is entered into a partner-powered search box, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages Sent to Us
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and maintain ordinary business records. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Automatic Site Data
Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical data when a page loads. That data helps keep the site usable and helps detect problems.
- IP address used to reach the site.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on pages.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps for visits.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand traffic patterns and visitor use. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, but some site features may not behave the same way when cookies are disabled.
How Data Is Used
- To keep pages working and loading reliably.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which Collingsworth County record pages are useful.
- To diagnose errors, broken links, and other technical issues.
- To display advertising that may be based on general interests.
Other Websites
This site links to sheriff pages, jail and corrections resources, court portals, state and federal locators, VINELink, and third-party search tools. After a visitor clicks one of those links, the destination site's privacy policy and data practices apply.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure ad views or show interest-based ads across different sites. That tracking happens through their platforms, not through official Collingsworth County or Texas government systems.
Who May Receive Data
Personal data is not sold as a standalone list. It may still be processed or disclosed in limited ways needed to run the site.
- Search partners that handle submitted search queries.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
Reasonable security practices are used for a public website of this type. No internet-connected system can be promised to be completely secure, so this notice does not guarantee that data can never be accessed, lost, misused, or intercepted.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal information, a deletion request may be sent through the contacts page.
Your Privacy Choices
- Ask for a copy of personal data this site holds about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate information you supplied.
- Ask for deletion of personal data when retention is not required.
- Opt out of certain processing where an opt-out right applies.
Notice Updates
