Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when visitors use Lafayette Parish Inmate Population, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Search Terms

When a visitor types a name, location, or similar detail into a third-party search box, that query is sent to the outside provider that powers the tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.

Messages

If you email the site or send a contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. It is not shared outside the organization except when disclosure is legally required.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical data when pages load or when a browser interacts with the site.

  • Internet Protocol address.
  • Browser name, version, and settings.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
  • Referring website or search engine, if available.
  • Date and time of the visit.

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand traffic patterns, remember basic settings, and measure how visitors use the site. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features or measurements may work differently after cookies are disabled.


How the Information Is Used

  • To keep the site available, functional, and reasonably fast.
  • To send search requests to the correct partner service when a visitor uses a partner tool.
  • To understand which Lafayette Parish custody, LPCC, court, and locator pages are useful to visitors.
  • To diagnose technical errors, security events, or broken pages.
  • To support advertising that may be tailored by advertising partners.

Outside Links and Tools

The site links to sheriff, jail, court, Louisiana DPS&C, LAVNS/VINELink, BOP, ICE, and other public or third-party resources. After you leave this site, the privacy policy and data practices of the destination website control your visit there.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites for interest-based advertising. That tracking occurs through their services, not through an official Lafayette Parish government system.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold by this site. It may be available to limited parties when needed for site operations, advertising, analytics, or legal compliance.

  • Search partners that process a submitted query.
  • Analytics providers that measure traffic and site performance.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law enforcement, courts, or government agencies when a valid subpoena, court order, or other legal requirement applies.

Security

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used for information handled by the site. No website, server, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure, so the site cannot promise breach-proof protection.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal information, contact the site so the information can be reviewed for deletion.


Your Choices and Rights

  • Ask for a copy of personal information the site has about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
  • Request deletion of personal information where deletion is legally and technically available.
  • Opt out of certain processing where applicable law provides that right.

Policy Updates

This privacy notice may be revised from time to time. Updated terms will be posted on this page with a new effective version when changes are made.
