Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice explains what information may be collected when someone uses Nevada Inmate Population, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using this site, a visitor accepts these practices and understands that official agency portals, including NDOC, sheriff offices, courts, BOP, ICE, Nevada S.A.V.E., VINELink, and vendor systems, have their own privacy rules.

Information You Provide

Search Queries

When a visitor enters a name, location, or other search detail into a third-party search tool on this site, that query is sent to the provider that operates the tool. Nevada Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own local database.

Messages and Contact Submissions

If a visitor sends an email or contact message about a broken link, correction, or research issue, the message may be kept long enough to review and respond. It is not shared outside the organization except when required by law or a valid legal process.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, this site may collect routine technical information when pages load, including:

  • IP address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and approximate time spent on pages.
  • Referring website, when available.
  • Date and time stamps.

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site usage, remember limited preferences, support advertising, and diagnose technical issues. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, though some features may behave differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • To keep the site available, stable, and reasonably fast.
  • To send search requests to the partner service selected by the visitor.
  • To understand which Nevada custody and public-record pages are useful.
  • To locate errors, broken links, and performance problems.
  • To support advertising that may be based on general interests or site activity.

Links to Other Websites

This site links to public agency and vendor sources, including NDOC, county sheriffs, city detention departments, court portals, BOP, ICE ODLS, Nevada S.A.V.E., VINELink, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the privacy policy and data practices of the destination site apply.

Advertising and analytics partners may use their own technologies to measure traffic or serve targeted advertising. That tracking happens on their systems and under their policies.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold as a standalone list. It may be made available to limited parties as needed to operate the site or comply with law.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers that help measure traffic and page performance.
  • Advertising networks that support ad delivery and measurement.
  • Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid legal order.

Security

Reasonable security practices are used to protect site information, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive personal details through general website messages and should submit official public-record requests directly to the agency custodian under Nevada law, including NRS Chapter 239 where applicable.


Users Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, a parent or guardian may request review and deletion.


Your Data Rights

  • Ask what personal information is held by this site.
  • Request correction of inaccurate contact information.
  • Request deletion where retention is not required.
  • Opt out of certain processing where applicable law allows.

Changes to This Notice

This Privacy Notice may be updated as the site, vendors, or legal requirements change. Revised language will be posted on this page with the new effective version.
