Information You Submit
Search Terms
If you type a name, county, state, or other search detail 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 separate 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 manage related follow-up. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement applies.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical and usage information when a page loads.
- IP address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device category and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on those pages.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site traffic and visitor behavior. You can block cookies in your browser settings, although some features or advertising functions may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, usable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the appropriate partner service.
- To understand which Benewah County jail, court, IDOC, BOP, ICE, VINELink, or public-records pages visitors use.
- To identify technical problems and repair them.
- To display advertising that may be more relevant to visitor interests.
Other Websites and Public Resources
This site links to outside resources, including sheriff and jail pages, Idaho iCourt, the IDOC Resident/Client Search, the Bureau of Prisons locator, ICE ODLS, VINELink, Idaho statutes, and Idaho Attorney General public-records guidance. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the outside website controls how your information is handled.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites for interest-based advertising. That tracking happens under the partner's controls, not through a public-records request to Benewah County or any Idaho agency.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold by this site. It may be available to limited service providers or authorities in these situations:
- Search partners that process queries submitted through their tools.
- Analytics providers that help measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid subpoena, court order, or other lawful demand.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled by this site. No internet-connected website, email system, search partner, or analytics platform can be promised to be fully secure or breach-proof.
