Privacy Notice

This notice describes what information Los Angeles County Recent Arrests receives, how it is used, and when another party may process it. By using the site, you accept the practices described here. A linked government office or search provider applies its own privacy terms once you leave this site.

Information You Submit

A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. We do not retain or log those terms on our systems. A message sent by email or through a contact form may include the details you choose to provide. We keep it as needed to answer and do not share it outside our organization unless the law requires disclosure.


Technical Data and Cookies

Standard logs and analytics may record technical details when a page loads.

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent
  • Referring page, when available
  • Date and time of the request

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You may block them through browser settings, though some site functions may then work differently.


How Information Is Used

Collected information supports normal site operation and helps us understand broad usage patterns.

  • Maintain site performance and availability
  • Send a search request to the selected partner
  • Measure which pages visitors find useful
  • Diagnose errors and security issues
  • Display advertising that may reflect general interests

Other Sites and Advertising

Links may lead to the LASD Inmate Information Center, Booking Log, Los Angeles Superior Court, CDCR, federal locators, city police pages, and outside search tools. Each destination controls its own privacy policy and data handling. Advertising partners may also measure activity across websites on their own systems, not ours.


When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be processed by:

  • Search partners that receive a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure traffic
  • Advertising networks that deliver ads
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

We use customary safeguards suited to the information handled. No website, network, or online storage system can be guaranteed breach-proof, so absolute security is not promised.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable California law, you may ask what personal data we hold, request correction or deletion, and object to certain processing. These rights apply to data controlled by this site. LASD, CDCR, a court, city police department, or search partner must handle requests about information on its own system.


Changes to This Notice

We may revise this notice as site practices or legal requirements change. An updated version becomes effective when it is posted here with its new effective date.
