Privacy Policy

This policy describes the information connected with a visit to Salt Lake County Criminal History, why it is used, and which outside services may receive it. Continued use of the website indicates acceptance of these practices.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or place entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. The provider processes the request and supplies its response. We do not keep a separate site log of those search terms.

Messages and Contact Submissions

An email or other direct message may be retained long enough to answer and administer the communication. It stays within the operating team unless disclosure is required by law.

Data We Gather Automatically

Ordinary server logs record limited technical details when a page loads, including:

  • Page-view date and time
  • Browser name and version
  • Device and operating-system type
  • Device IP address
  • Pages viewed and visit duration
  • Referring website, when supplied

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small device files used with analytics services to understand aggregate traffic, popular pages, and navigation patterns. Browser controls can block or clear them. Disabling cookies may change how some site functions behave.

What We Do With This Data

  • Route a search request to the selected outside provider
  • Maintain site availability and performance
  • Find and correct technical faults
  • Measure which pages visitors use
  • Display advertising that may reflect general interests

No Criminal-Record Data on File

This site does not maintain, assemble, or sell a database of personal criminal records. Its published material explains how to reach Salt Lake County courts, the Sheriff's Office, the Utah Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Identification, UDC, and the Utah Sex, Kidnap, and Child Abuse Offender Registry. Visitor data is not used to create consumer reports or third-party criminal histories, and this site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies operate the search boxes. Their privacy terms, retention periods, and sharing rules govern data submitted to those tools. Review the provider's policy before entering a query because this policy does not control that processing.

Links to Other Websites

Links to courts, law-enforcement offices, Utah agencies, legal resources, and search services lead away from this website. Each destination applies its own privacy policy. Check it before providing personal information.

Advertising companies may use their systems to measure activity across websites and select ads. Their technology and policies control that tracking.

Who Might See Your Data

Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be available to:

  • Outside search providers that process a submitted query
  • Analytics services measuring traffic and performance
  • Advertising networks serving page advertisements
  • Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under valid legal process

How We Protect Your Data

Reasonable security measures protect collected data, but no internet system can guarantee absolute security. A breach or unauthorized access remains possible despite those safeguards.

Users Under 18

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. A verified report of such data will be handled through deletion where required.

Your Data Rights

Utah government records follow the Government Records Access and Management Act, Utah Code Title 63G, Chapter 2. Access to state criminal-history information is separately limited by Utah Code §53-10-108. Those laws govern official records and do not turn this private site into their custodian. Subject to applicable privacy and consumer-protection law, you may:

  • Request access to personal data held about you
  • Ask that inaccurate data be corrected
  • Seek deletion where the law provides that right
  • Opt out of processing covered by an applicable statute

Updates to This Policy

Revisions take effect when an updated policy and effective date appear here. Review this page periodically for changes to the handling practices described above.
