Information You Submit
Search Queries
When you enter a name, location, or other search term into a partner-powered lookup tool, that request is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Gilpin County Released Inmates does not keep an official record of those search terms on its own server.
Messages and Emails
If you send an email or message related to this site, we may keep the message long enough to read it, respond, maintain records of the exchange, or address a technical or legal issue. We do not share contact messages outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for it.
Automatic Technical Data
Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical details when a page loads. That data helps measure traffic, diagnose errors, and keep pages working.
- IP address or approximate network location.
- Browser name, version, and language settings.
- Device type, operating system, and screen information.
- Pages visited and time spent on pages.
- Referring website or search page, when provided.
- Date and time stamps for requests.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use, remember basic preferences, support ads, and measure performance. You can block cookies in your browser. Some features or partner tools may work differently if cookies are disabled.
How We Use Data
- Operate, maintain, and improve the site.
- Route searches to the correct partner service.
- See which Gilpin County release-record pages are useful.
- Find broken links, slow pages, and other technical issues.
- Show advertising that may be based on general interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to official and outside resources, including Gilpin County Sheriff records routes, Gilpin Combined Court, Colorado Department of Corrections, Colorado VINE, BOP, ICE, and other search services. Colorado records may be governed by laws such as the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act and the Colorado Open Records Act, but each destination applies its own privacy policy and access rules after you leave this site.
Advertising partners may also use their own systems to measure views, clicks, or activity across websites. That tracking is controlled by the partner, not by Gilpin County Released Inmates.
Who May Receive Data
We do not sell personal contact messages. Limited information may be processed by the following groups when needed to operate the site or comply with law.
- Search partners that process lookup requests.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Limits
We use reasonable security practices for a small public website, but no internet system can be promised as breach-proof. Do not send sensitive personal details through this site when the better route is the official sheriff, court, DOC, probation, BOP, ICE, or VINE channel.
