Information you choose to send
Search terms sent to a partner
When you enter a name or place into a search tool, the query is sent to the third-party provider that runs that tool. Arizona Recent Arrests does not store or log those search terms on its own end.
Messages to the site
If you send us a message through a contact channel, we keep the message and any details you include so we can review and respond. We do not share it outside the organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Technical details recorded during a visit
When a page loads, standard server or analytics systems may record technical details such as:
- Your internet protocol (IP) address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring site, if one is sent
- Visit and request timestamps
Cookies and browser settings
Cookies help us understand how visitors use the site. You can block or clear them in your browser settings, though some site features may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How site information is used
- To operate the site and keep pages working well
- To send a search query to the partner service you selected
- To see which guide pages people find useful
- To diagnose and repair technical problems
- To support ads that may reflect visitor interests
County, state, and partner links
Links on this site may lead to Arizona county rosters, sheriff or corrections pages, government portals, county guide sites, and outside search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy and practices apply. Arizona's public-records access rules are set out in A.R.S. § 39-121 and § 39-121.01; those laws concern records held by public bodies, not the handling of a query by a private search partner.
Some advertising partners may track activity across different sites on their own systems to select ads. That tracking is governed by the partner's tools and policy, not by this site.
Who may receive information
We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared with the following service groups when needed for the purposes above:
- Search partners that receive the query you submit
- Analytics services that help us understand site use
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads
- Law-enforcement or government agencies when a valid legal order requires it
Steps to protect information
We use ordinary safeguards to protect information we hold. No website or internet-connected service can promise complete security, so we cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed or exposed without permission.
Visitors under 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent information to us, a parent or guardian may use the Contact Us page to ask that we remove it.
Requests about your information
- Ask what personal information this site holds about you
- Request a correction to information you provided
- Ask us to erase information we hold
- Ask to opt out of certain uses of site information
Use Contact Us to describe the information and the action you seek. These requests can reach only data held by this site; a search provider or government agency must handle information on its own system.
Changes to this policy
We may revise this policy as site practices change. A revised version will appear on this page with its updated effective date.
