Information You Submit
Search Terms
When you enter a name, location, or similar search detail into a partner search box, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not store those search terms in its own database.
Messages
If you email us or submit a message through a contact method, we keep the information needed to review and answer the message. We do not share those messages outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.

Outside Websites and Public Records
This site links to sheriff pages, jail roster tools, clerk portals, Texas public-information resources, and third-party search providers. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy and terms of the destination website control your use of that service.
Texas public records may be available through the Texas Public Information Act, Texas Government Code Chapter 552, and related government portals. This privacy notice covers this private website only. It does not control how Waller County, the courts, TDCJ, BOP, ICE, or any public agency handles a request or record.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize visits across different websites and serve interest-based ads.

- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid subpoena, order, or other lawful process.
Security
We use reasonable security practices for a small public website, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed breach-proof. Sending information online always carries some risk.
