Information You Submit
Search Terms
When you type a name, county, state, or similar search term 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 log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and maintain ordinary business records. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement applies.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may receive routine technical details each time a page loads.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time on page.
- Referring website, when available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and to support advertising or analytics. You can block cookies in your browser, although some features may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep pages available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which Pitkin County jail, court, roster, and locator pages visitors use most.
- To diagnose errors, abuse, spam, and technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be tailored to visitor interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to Pitkin County Sheriff's Office pages, the current-inmates PDF, Colorado Judicial Branch pages, CDOC, VINELink, BOP, ICE, and third-party search services. After you leave this site, the destination site's own privacy policy and data practices apply.
Colorado public-records access through official agencies may involve CORA, C.R.S. 24-72-201 et seq., or the Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act, C.R.S. 24-72-301 to 309. Those laws govern government records custodians, not this private website or third-party search providers.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and deliver interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through their services, not through official Pitkin County or Colorado government systems.
Who May Receive Information

- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid subpoena, warrant, court order, or similar legal demand requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used, but no website or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. This site does not promise breach-proof storage or transmission.
