Privacy Policy

This policy describes the information collected during a visit to Cache County Criminal History, the purposes for which it is used, and the limited situations in which another party may receive it. It also explains how outside search tools and links operate under separate policies. By continuing to browse or use a feature, you acknowledge the practices stated here.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

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

Messages and Contact Submissions

An email or other direct message may be retained so it can be answered and documented. It remains within the organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.

Data We Gather Automatically

When a page loads, ordinary server and analytics systems may collect technical details about the visit:

  • The IP address assigned to your device
  • Which browser you are using and its version
  • Your device type and operating system
  • The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
  • The site that sent you here, if any
  • Timestamps for each page view

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small files placed on a device. They help measure page traffic, navigation, and where visits end. Analytics providers may combine that activity into broad reports. A browser can block or remove cookies, although some functions may then work differently.

What We Do With This Data

Collected data supports normal operation and improvement of the service. It may be used for these functions:

  • Finding and correcting technical or performance problems
  • Routing a search query to the selected outside provider
  • Measuring which pages and features visitors use
  • Keeping the service available and responsive
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect broad interests

No Criminal-Record Data on File

No personal criminal-record database is maintained, compiled, or sold here. The published material describes how to reach Cache County Sheriff's Records Department, Utah Courts, the Utah Department of Public Safety Bureau of Criminal Identification, and the Utah Sex, Kidnap, and Child Abuse Offender Notification and Registration Website. Visitor information is not assembled into a record about another person or into a consumer report. This website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies supply the search-box services. Their own privacy terms apply to information submitted to them, including retention and sharing decisions. Those practices are beyond our control. Review the provider's policy before sending a query.

Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to Cache County offices, Utah Courts, BCI, legal resources, or commercial search services. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination's policy controls its collection and use of data. Read that policy before providing personal details.

Advertising companies may also measure activity across websites to select ads. Their systems, rather than this policy, govern that tracking.

Who Might See Your Data

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

  • Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
  • Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
  • Ad networks that place ads on our pages
  • Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it

How We Protect Your Data

Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used for collected information. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so protection against every breach, loss, or unauthorized access cannot be promised.

Users Under 18

The service is intended for adults, and personal information from anyone under 18 is not knowingly collected. A verified report that a minor supplied information will be reviewed so the data can be deleted.

Your Data Rights

Applicable law may provide rights concerning personal data. Utah's Government Records Access and Management Act, Utah Code Title 63G, Chapter 2, governs records held by Utah public agencies, not the private visitor data held by this website. Under Utah Code §63G-2-202, access to private government records generally requires subject status or lawful authority. For data maintained here, a visitor may:

  • Ask for a copy of what we have on file about you
  • Have us fix information that is wrong
  • Request that we erase your data
  • Opt out of certain kinds of data processing

Updates to This Policy

This policy may be revised as practices or legal duties change. A revised version becomes available on this page and displays its current effective date.

Effective date: August 10, 2026
