Information You Send
Search Terms
When you type a name, county, or other detail into a search tool, that request is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages and Contact Requests
If you email us or submit a contact message, we use the information in that message to review and answer it. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless a legal requirement, such as a valid order, requires disclosure.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, each page load may create technical records that help operate and improve the site. Those records can include:
- IP address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- The referring website, when a browser sends it.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand how visitors use pages about the Linn County Jail, Oregon public-records access under ORS 192, and related custody resources. You can block cookies in your browser settings, but some features or measurements may work differently.
How the Information Is Used
- Keep the site available, readable, and reasonably fast.
- Send search requests to the partner service that powers a search box.
- Understand which Linn County jail, roster, mugshot, court-record, and facility pages visitors use.
- Diagnose broken links, display problems, and other technical issues.
- Display advertising that may be based on general interests or browsing signals.
Outside Links and Partner Sites
This site links to sheriff pages, jail rosters, Oregon Department of Corrections resources, VISOR, court portals, BOP, ICE, and third-party search tools. After you leave this site, the destination site's own privacy notice and data practices apply.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure or personalize ads across websites. That activity happens under their controls, not as a record hosted by this site.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Information may still be available to limited service providers or authorities in the circumstances below.
- Search partners that process search-box requests.
- Analytics providers that measure page use and performance.
- Advertising networks that display or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it.
Security
We use reasonable security practices for a public information website, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed against every loss, misuse, intrusion, or transmission error.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, contact us so we can review and delete it when appropriate.
Your Choices and Rights
- Ask for a copy of personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction of information that is wrong.
- Request deletion when retention is not needed.
