Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query placed in a search box is transmitted to the outside company operating that tool. The provider processes the entry and supplies its own results. Glasscock County Criminal History does not keep a local log of names or locations entered in those partner forms.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email sent to the site may be retained long enough to review and answer it. The message is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.
Data We Gather Automatically
Ordinary web-server and analytics records may collect technical facts when a page loads:
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Internet Protocol address
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent
- Referring website, when supplied
- Date and time of each request
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies and analytics services help measure traffic, performance, and how visitors move among pages. A browser can reject or remove cookies, although some functions may then behave differently. Aggregated traffic findings help identify slow pages and technical problems.
What We Do With This Data
- Operate, secure, and improve the website
- Send a submitted partner query to the service chosen by the visitor
- Measure which pages are used and where errors occur
- Diagnose performance and security issues
- Display advertising that may reflect general interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
Glasscock County Criminal History does not maintain, compile, or sell a database of personal criminal records. It publishes general directions to the Glasscock County sheriff and clerk, Texas DPS Computerized Criminal History, TDCJ, and the Texas Public Sex Offender Registry. Visitor data is not assembled into a consumer report. The site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search widgets. Their privacy terms, retention choices, prices, and sharing practices apply to information submitted to them. Those practices are not controlled by this site. Review the provider's policy before entering a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Glasscock County offices, Texas agencies, court systems, statutes, or partner services. The destination's privacy rules govern once a visitor leaves this domain. Read those rules before submitting personal information.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to measure activity across websites. This site does not control that external tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be processed by:
- Search providers receiving a query a visitor chooses to submit
- Analytics and performance vendors
- Advertising networks placing material on the site
- A government body when disclosure is compelled by valid legal process
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable technical and administrative safeguards are used for data under the site's control. No internet service can promise complete security, and this policy does not guarantee that an intrusion or loss can never occur.
Users Under 18
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly seek personal information from anyone younger than 18. Data known to have been submitted by a minor will be removed when identified.
Your Data Rights
Texas Government Code Chapter 552 governs access to records held by Texas governmental bodies, while Government Code Chapter 411 controls dissemination of criminal-history record information. Those laws do not turn this private site into a government records custodian. Subject to applicable law and verified requests, a visitor may:
- Ask what personal information the site holds about that visitor
- Request correction of inaccurate visitor information
- Request deletion when no legal retention duty applies
- Use browser controls to limit cookies and related processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as services or legal obligations change. A revised version becomes available on this page with its new effective date.
Effective date: August 9, 2026
