Information You Provide
Search Terms
When you type a name, location, or similar query into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Mariposa County Released Inmates does not keep its own stored log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email us or submit a contact message, we use the information you provide to review and respond to that message. We do not share contact messages outside our organization unless a legal requirement makes disclosure necessary.

- Pages visited and time spent on those pages
- Referring website, when one is available
- Date and time stamps
Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand site use and support ordinary web functions. You can block cookies in your browser settings, but some features may load or behave differently after cookies are blocked.
How Data Is Used
- To keep the site available, stable, and reasonably fast
- To route search requests to the correct partner service
- To understand which Mariposa County release-record pages visitors use
- To find and fix technical errors
- To display ads that may be based on general visitor interests
Outside Links
This site links to sheriff pages, Mariposa County records portals, court pages, CDCR resources, VINE, BOP, ICE, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the destination site controls how that site handles your data.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and show interest-based ads. Those tracking practices occur on their platforms, not in records held by Mariposa County Released Inmates.
Who May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Data may be shared with the limited groups needed to operate the site or comply with the law.
- Search partners that process submitted lookup requests
- Analytics providers that measure page use
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads
- Law enforcement, courts, regulators, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it
Data Security
We use reasonable security practices for a public website, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed breach-proof. Do not submit sensitive details that are not needed for a message or lookup.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal data, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
Your Data Rights
