Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or location submitted through a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider that operates it. The provider handles the query and supplies the response. We do not keep or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be retained as needed to answer it. We keep the message within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers automatically receive basic technical information when a page loads:
- Page-view dates and times
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- IP address
- Referring website, when available
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They help us and our analytics services measure aggregate traffic, including popular pages and common exit points. You may block cookies in your browser, although doing so can change how some site features work.
What We Do With This Data

- Maintain site availability and performance
- Diagnose and correct technical problems

No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not build, maintain, or sell a database of personal criminal records. The site describes how to reach Uvalde County custodians, including the Sheriff, court clerks, Texas DPS, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. Visitor data is not assembled into third-party criminal files or consumer reports. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the site's search boxes. Their privacy terms govern information entered into those tools, and each provider controls its retention and sharing practices. Review the provider's policy before submitting any query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Uvalde County offices, Texas agencies, court portals, legal resources, or outside search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's policy governs. Read it before providing personal information.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select targeted ads.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be disclosed to:
- Analytics vendors that measure traffic and performance
- Search partners that process a query you choose to submit
- Advertising networks that serve content on the pages
- Government or law-enforcement bodies when a valid order requires disclosure
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices are used to protect collected information. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
The site is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such information, we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Rights can depend on where you live and which law applies. Texas criminal-history dissemination is governed in part by Government Code Sections 411.083 and 411.135, while access to Uvalde County government records is governed by the Texas Public Information Act, Government Code Chapter 552. You may ask to:
- Correct inaccurate information held by us
- Receive a copy of information held about you
- Opt out of certain processing where applicable
- Request deletion where the law provides that right
