Privacy Policy

This policy describes the visitor information collected by Assumption Parish Criminal History, why it is used, and the limited circumstances in which another party may receive it. By using the site, you accept these practices.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or location entered in a search tool is transmitted directly to the outside company operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results; we do not retain or log those terms on our systems.

Messages and Contact Submissions

We retain an email you send long enough to respond and manage the correspondence. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is legally required.

Data We Gather Automatically

Our servers automatically receive basic technical information when a page loads:

  • Page-view timestamps
  • Your device's IP address
  • Browser name and version
  • Operating system and device category
  • Visited pages and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when available

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small files placed on a device that help us understand traffic patterns, including popular pages and common exit points. Analytics providers aggregate that usage information. You may block cookies in your browser, although doing so can affect how parts of the site function.

What We Do With This Data

  • Routing a search query to the selected partner
  • Maintaining site availability and performance
  • Diagnosing and repairing technical problems
  • Understanding which pages visitors use
  • 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 records. Our content explains how to approach the Assumption Parish Sheriff, 23rd Judicial District Court and Clerk, Louisiana State Police BCII, and Louisiana Sex Offender and Child Predator Registry. This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not compiled into consumer reports or third-party dossiers.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies power the site's search boxes. Their privacy policies, not this policy, govern submitted information, and each provider controls its own retention and disclosure practices. Read the applicable provider policy before running a query.

Links to Other Websites

Links to the Assumption Parish Sheriff, court systems, Louisiana agencies, legal-aid resources, and commercial tools lead away from this site. Once you leave, the destination's privacy policy applies; review it before providing personal details.

Advertising providers may use their own systems to track activity across websites for targeted advertising. We do not operate that tracking.

Who Might See Your Data

We do not sell personal information. Data may be disclosed to:

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

How We Protect Your Data

We use standard safeguards for collected data, but no internet-connected system is completely secure. We work to protect visitor information without guaranteeing that a breach can never occur.

Users Under 18

This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such data, we will delete it promptly.

Your Data Rights

Depending on your residence and the law that applies, Louisiana's Database Security Breach Notification Law, La. R.S. 51:3071 et seq., and Louisiana Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, La. R.S. 51:1401 et seq., may provide protections concerning personal data and consumer practices. At a minimum, you may:

  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Ask what information we hold about you
  • Opt out of certain processing where available
  • Request deletion of your information

Updates to This Policy

We may revise this policy. Any revision will appear here with a new effective date, so review this page periodically for changes.

Effective date: July 26, 2026
