Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or place entered in a search tool is sent to the outside company that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not keep or log the search terms on our own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be retained long enough to respond and maintain the related correspondence. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Loading a page can cause the servers to record routine technical information about the visit:
- Page-view times and the pages opened
- The referring website, when one is reported
- The device's assigned IP address
- Browser type and version
- Operating system and device category
- Approximate time spent on each page
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files saved on a visitor's device. They and analytics services help combine traffic data, such as which pages receive visits and where a browsing session ends. Browser controls can block cookies, although disabling them may change how parts of the site work.
What We Do With This Data
- Routing a search request to the selected outside provider
- Finding and correcting performance or technical faults
- Measuring which material is useful and where revisions may help
- Operating the site and improving page speed
- Displaying advertising that may reflect likely interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not maintain, assemble, or sell a database of personal criminal records. The material here explains where Eastland County records are kept and how to approach the sheriff, local court clerks, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. This resource is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Visitor data is not used to create consumer reports or profiles about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies supply the search boxes. Information submitted to one of them is governed by that company's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each partner sets its own rules for retention and disclosure. Read those rules before entering a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links can lead to sheriff pages, court systems, state agencies, legal-aid resources, or independent search tools. The destination's policy controls once a visitor leaves this site. Review it before providing personal information.
Some advertising providers may measure activity across websites to select ads. Their own systems perform that tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be available to:
- Analytics providers that measure use and performance
- Search partners chosen to process a submitted query
- Advertising networks serving content on the pages
- A government or law-enforcement body acting under a valid legal demand
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable standard safeguards are used for collected data. No online system can guarantee complete security, however, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access or a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
The site is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. Notice that a minor supplied such data will prompt its deletion.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary with a visitor's location. In Texas, consumer protections include the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, Business & Commerce Code Chapter 541, and the Deceptive Trade Practices Act, Business & Commerce Code Chapter 17. Subject to applicable limits, you may:
- Request deletion of eligible personal data
- Ask for access to personal information held about you
- Correct information that is inaccurate
- Opt out of processing where the applicable law provides that choice
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as practices or legal duties change. The new version and its effective date will be posted on this page.
Effective date: August 9, 2026
