Starr County Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice explains what data Starr County Released Inmates receives, how it is used, and when another party may process it. It covers information visitors submit, routine technical details, cookies, search partners, analytics, and advertising services. Government links and outside search tools follow their own privacy terms. By using this site, you accept the practices described here. Texas Government Code Chapter 552 governs access to government information, not the handling of data by this private site.

Information You Submit

Queries Sent to Search Tools

A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. The provider applies its own privacy policy and data practices. This site does not store or log those query terms on its own systems.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or contact message, we keep the details needed to understand and answer it. We do not share the message beyond the organization unless a valid legal requirement compels disclosure.


Automatic Technical Information

Normal web operations can produce technical and usage data when a page loads.

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • Referring website, when provided
  • Date and time stamps

Cookies and Similar Tools

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and support some features. Browser controls can block or remove cookies. Parts of the site or partner tools may then work differently.


How Information Is Used

Collected information supports a limited set of site functions.

  • Operate the pages and maintain performance
  • Send a search request to the selected partner
  • Understand which Starr County record guides visitors use
  • Diagnose errors and security issues
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

External Sites and Advertising

Links may lead to the Starr County Sheriff, courts, TDCJ, Texas IVSS, BOP, ICE, or outside search providers. Once a visitor leaves, the destination’s privacy policy controls. This site is not responsible for that party’s collection, retention, or disclosure practices.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs under their technology and policies, not as a government record process.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal data. Limited information may be processed by:

  • Search partners that receive submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver or assess ads
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order

Security Has Practical Limits

Reasonable, standard safeguards are used to protect information. No website, network, or storage system connected to the internet can be guaranteed breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive identifiers that are not needed for a message.


Visitors Must Be Adults

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a parent or guardian believes a minor submitted data, use the Contact Us page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and the ability to verify a request, a person may ask for a copy of personal data held by this site, correction of inaccurate data, deletion, or an opt-out from certain processing. These rights concern data controlled by this site. Starr County, Texas agencies, courts, and search partners handle their own records and requests.


Changes to This Notice

This policy may be revised as the site or legal requirements change. A new version takes effect when posted here with its updated effective date.
