Information You Submit
A name, location, or other query entered in a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our own systems. The provider's policy governs its handling of the query.
If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain it as needed to answer. We do not disclose that correspondence outside the organization unless the law requires it.
Automatic Technical Information
Ordinary site operation can collect technical and usage details when a page loads:
- Internet Protocol address

- Device class and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent
- Referring website, when supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookies help measure use and support site functions. Browser controls can reject cookies, although blocking them may cause some features to work differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected information may be used to:
- Operate the site and keep pages responsive
- Send search requests to the selected provider
- Understand which Falls County resources visitors use
- Diagnose and correct technical faults
- Display advertising that may reflect interests
Links Beyond This Site
Links lead to Falls County records offices, sheriff and TDCJ pages, government portals, and outside search tools. After a visitor follows a link, the destination's privacy policy applies.
Advertising partners may measure activity across websites to select ads. That tracking occurs through their systems, not records maintained directly by this site.
Parties Receiving Information
We do not sell personal information. Data may nevertheless pass to:
- Search partners that process submitted queries
- Analytics vendors that measure site performance
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order
Public records linked here remain subject to the Texas Public Information Act, Government Code Chapter 552, and other laws governing the originating agency. This privacy notice does not alter access to government records.
Security Practices
We use customary safeguards appropriate to a public website. No internet service, storage system, or transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
The service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contacts page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and verification, a user may:
- Ask for a copy of personal information we hold
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Ask that eligible information be erased
- Opt out of certain processing where that choice applies

We may revise this privacy notice as the site or legal requirements change. A revised version becomes available here with a new effective date.
