Information You Submit
Search Terms
A name or location entered into a search box is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms apply to its processing.
Messages
If you email or send a contact message, the content and reply address are retained as needed to answer. A message is not shared outside the organization unless the sender asks for that sharing or disclosure is legally required.
Technical Data Collected on Visits
Normal web and analytics systems may receive limited technical data when a page loads. That information can include:
- Internet Protocol address;
- browser name and version;
- device category and operating system;
- pages visited and time spent on them;
- the referring website, when supplied; and
- date and time stamps.
Cookies and Similar Tools
Cookies may help measure how people use these Brevard County release guides and remember basic preferences. Browser controls can block or remove cookies, although parts of the site or an embedded service may then behave differently.
How the Information Is Used
Collected information supports ordinary site operations and is used to:
- keep pages available and responsive;
- send a search request to the selected partner;
- learn which guides readers use;
- identify and correct technical problems; and
- display advertising that may reflect general interests.
Government and Outside Links
Pages link to BCSO release records, Florida corrections searches, court portals, federal locators, and independent search services. Once a visitor follows a link, the receiving site’s privacy policy controls its data practices.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to measure activity across sites or tailor advertising. This private Brevard reference does not control those outside systems.
Parties That May Receive Data
Personal information is not sold. Limited information may be processed by:
- search partners that receive a submitted query;
- analytics services measuring site use;
- advertising networks serving or measuring ads; and
- law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Security Measures and Limits
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for information within this site’s control. No internet transmission, storage system, or connected service is guaranteed to be fully secure, and this notice does not promise that a breach can never occur.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This resource 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 Contacts page to request review and deletion.
Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and the ability to verify the request, a person may ask for a copy of personal data held by this site, seek correction of an error, request deletion, or object to certain processing. The request should identify the relevant message or interaction without sending sensitive custody information.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as services or legal duties change. An updated version takes effect when it is posted here with a revised effective date. Effective July 14, 2026.
