Privacy Notice

This policy explains what information may be collected when you use this site, how it is used, and when it may be shared. By continuing to use Gem County Released Inmates, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Choose to Provide

Terms Entered in Search Tools

When you enter a name, location, or other detail in a search tool, that query is transmitted to the third-party company operating the tool. Gem County Released Inmates does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.

Emails and Other Messages

If you send an email or submit a message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not disclose those communications outside our organization unless the law requires us to do so.


Technical Information Collected During a Visit

Like most websites, this site may record basic technical and usage details when a page loads, including:

  • Your Internet Protocol address
  • The browser you use and its version
  • Your device category and operating system
  • Pages opened and the time spent on them
  • The referring website, when available
  • The date and time of each request

Cookie Use

Cookies help us understand how visitors move through the site. You can reject or remove cookies through your browser settings, although blocking them may cause some features to work differently.


Purposes for Using Information

  • Operate the website and maintain its performance
  • Send a search request to the appropriate partner service
  • Measure which pages visitors find useful
  • Diagnose errors and resolve technical problems
  • Present advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy Beyond This Website

Pages here link to release-record resources, the Gem County Sheriff's Office and jail, Idaho Department of Correction services, federal or immigration systems, government portals, and outside search tools. After you follow one of those links, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.

Some advertising providers may use their own systems to recognize activity across different websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through the provider, not through records maintained by this site.


Parties That May Receive Information

We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be provided to:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver ads
  • Law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies acting under a valid subpoena, court order, or other lawful demand

Reasonable Security, Not a Guarantee

We use customary safeguards intended to protect information. Even so, no website, network, or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Adults Only

This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If you believe a minor submitted information here, use the Contacts page to request its deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal information we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Ask us to delete information, subject to applicable obligations
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing where that right applies

Policy Revisions

We may revise this privacy policy as practices or requirements change. An updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
