Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information collected when someone uses St. James Parish Released Inmates, how that information supports the site, and when outside providers may receive it. The policy applies to this private reference site, not to a sheriff, court, corrections agency, or other website reached through an external link.

Information You Submit

A search entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not store the search as an official St. James Parish record. A message sent through a contact method may include the sender's name, email address, and any information placed in the message. Please do not submit sensitive personal details unless they are needed for the request.


Automatic Technical Details

Standard server and analytics systems may record technical information when a page loads. That data helps maintain the site and understand general use.

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

Cookie Use

Cookies may help measure how visitors use the site and support its features. A browser can reject or remove cookies, although some tools may work differently when cookies are blocked.


How Information Is Used

Collected information may be used for the following operating purposes:

  • Keep pages available, stable, and responsive
  • Send search requests to the selected outside search provider
  • Measure which resources visitors find useful
  • Diagnose and correct technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect general interests

Websites Beyond This Site

Links may lead to St. James Parish release records, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, or outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.

Advertising providers may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and select ads. That processing occurs on their systems, not on the official systems of St. James Parish.


Who May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold as a customer list. It may be shared with limited parties that perform a necessary function:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver or assess ads
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure

Data Security Measures

Reasonable, standard safeguards are used to protect information. No website, transmission, or internet-connected storage system can be guaranteed secure, so this site cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.


People Under Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may 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 to:

  • Receive a copy of personal data held by this site
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Delete personal information when no legal need requires retention
  • Opt out of processing when an applicable right permits it

These requests concern data held by this private site. A government record must be addressed with the St. James Parish Sheriff's Office, Clerk of Court, Louisiana corrections department, or other agency that maintains it.


Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as site practices or legal duties change. An updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
