Privacy Policy

This policy describes the information collected during a visit, the reasons it is used, and the limited circumstances in which another party may receive it. By continuing to browse or use Robertson County Criminal History, you agree to the practices stated below.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or place entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside company operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not keep or record those search terms on our systems.

Messages and Contact Submissions

When you email us, we retain the message as needed to prepare and send a response. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.

Data We Gather Automatically

Our servers automatically receive basic technical details whenever a visitor loads a page:

  • Pages viewed, visit duration, and page-view timestamps
  • Device type and operating system
  • Browser name and version
  • The referring website, when one is available
  • The internet protocol address assigned to the device

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small files placed on a device to help measure site use, including popular pages and the points where visits end. Analytics providers combine this traffic information for reporting. You may block cookies through browser controls, although doing so can change how some site functions behave.

What We Do With This Data

  • Routing a submitted search to the selected partner
  • Maintaining site availability and page speed
  • Finding and resolving technical problems
  • Measuring which pages serve visitors well and which need improvement
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests

No Criminal-Record Data on File

We do not maintain, assemble, or sell a database of personal criminal histories. The site identifies the official custodians of Robertson County records, including the Sheriff's Office, court clerks, Texas Department of Public Safety, and Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Visitor information is not used to create consumer reports or dossiers about other people.

Third-Party Search Partners

Independent companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted through a box is governed by that provider's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each provider determines its own retention and disclosure rules, which we do not control. Read those terms before entering a query.

Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to sheriff pages, court portals, Texas agencies, legal-aid resources, or external search tools. Once you leave this website, the destination's privacy rules apply. Review them before providing personal information.

Some advertising companies may use activity across multiple websites to select targeted ads. That tracking occurs on the advertising company's systems, not ours.

Who Might See Your Data

Personal data is not sold. Information may be disclosed to:

  • Analytics providers measuring traffic and technical performance
  • Search partners processing queries submitted to their tools
  • Advertising networks serving ads on the site
  • Government or law-enforcement authorities acting under a valid legal order

How We Protect Your Data

We use customary safeguards for information under our control. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, however, so we cannot promise 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 anyone younger than 18. If we learn that a minor provided such data, we will remove it.

Your Data Rights

Privacy rights can depend on where you live and which law applies. The Texas Public Information Act, Government Code Chapter 552, governs access to records held by Texas governmental bodies, not visitor data held by this private site. Government Code Chapter 411 governs dissemination of Texas criminal-history record information. Subject to applicable law, you may:

  • Request access to personal information we retain about you
  • Ask that inaccurate personal information be corrected
  • Request deletion where the law allows it
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing where applicable

Updates to This Policy

This policy may be revised as practices or legal requirements change. Any revised policy will appear here with its new effective date, so visitors should review the page periodically.

Effective date: August 10, 2026
