Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or place entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not keep a separate log of those search terms.
Messages and Contact Submissions
We may retain an email or other direct message long enough to respond and maintain the exchange. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our systems automatically receive basic technical and usage details when a page loads:
- Page-view times and the pages visited
- Device type and operating system
- Your device's IP address
- Browser name and version
- Time spent on viewed pages
- The referring website, when one exists
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files stored on a device. They help analytics services combine traffic information, such as which Piute County record pages receive visits and where sessions end. Browser controls can block cookies, although parts of the website may then work differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Diagnosing errors and other technical problems
- Routing a search query to the provider that runs the tool
- Operating, securing, and improving site performance
- Understanding which pages are useful to visitors
- Presenting advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
Piute County Criminal History does not compile, keep, or sell a database of personal criminal records. It publishes directions to the Piute County Sheriff's Office, Utah Courts Xchange, the Utah Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Identification, and the Utah Sex and Kidnap Offender Registry. Government disclosure is controlled by laws such as the Utah Government Records Access and Management Act and Utah Code §77-41-110, not by this privacy policy. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not assembled into a consumer report or a record about another person.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes on this website. Their own privacy terms govern the data entered there, including retention and sharing choices. Review the provider's policy before submitting a query because we do not control those practices.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Piute County government pages, Utah court portals, state agencies, legal resources, or outside tools. Once you leave this website, the destination's privacy policy applies. Review it before providing personal information.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to follow activity across websites and select targeted ads.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Limited information may be available to:
- Analytics vendors that measure traffic and site operation
- Search providers that process a query submitted through their tool
- Advertising networks serving material on these pages
- A government or law-enforcement body acting under a valid legal demand
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable safeguards are used for data under our control. No internet system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access or a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
This website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such data, we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Depending on residence, the Utah Consumer Privacy Act, Utah Code Title 13, Chapter 61, or another applicable privacy law may grant rights over personal data. Subject to legal exceptions and the law's scope, you may:
- Request deletion of eligible personal data
- Ask to review personal information held about you
- Seek correction of inaccurate information
- Opt out of certain processing where the law provides that choice
Updates to This Policy
This privacy policy may be revised as the website or legal requirements change. A revision takes effect when the updated text and effective date appear here.
