Orleans Privacy Notice

This notice describes what information Orleans Parish Recent Arrests receives, how it is used, and when it may be shared. It also explains the roles of search partners, advertising services, and outside government sites. By using this site, you accept the practices stated here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

A name, place, or other term entered into a third-party search box is sent to the provider that operates that tool. Orleans Parish Recent Arrests does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's policy governs its handling of the query.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or contact message, we retain what is needed to read and answer it. The message is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Visit Details

Like most sites, this one may receive basic technical and usage data when a page loads. Those details can include:

  • Your Internet Protocol address.
  • Your browser name and version.
  • Your device category and operating system.
  • The pages opened and time spent on them.
  • The referring website, when one is supplied.
  • The date and time of a request.

Cookie Use

Cookies may help measure how visitors use the site. You can refuse or clear them through browser settings, though blocking cookies may change how some features work.


Purposes for Data Use

Collected information is used only to operate, assess, and support the site and its partner features. It may help us:

  • Keep pages available and responsive.
  • Send a search request to the selected partner.
  • Understand which pages visitors find useful.
  • Detect faults and correct technical problems.
  • Present advertising that may reflect user interests.

Privacy Beyond This Site

Links may lead to OPSO custody tools, NOPD records pages, Louisiana corrections resources, government portals, and outside search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy terms control.

Some advertising providers may use their own technology to recognize activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That processing occurs on the provider's systems, not ours.


Limited Data Recipients

We do not sell personal information. Depending on how you use the site, data may be handled by:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Services that provide traffic and performance analytics.
  • Advertising networks serving or measuring ads.
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order.

Reasonable Security Measures

We use ordinary safeguards intended to protect information. No website, network, or storage system can be promised as fully secure, so we cannot guarantee protection against every breach.


Adults Only

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, contact us and request its deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Rights differ by location and applicable law. Where a right applies, you may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold about you.
  • Correct personal information that is wrong.
  • Erase eligible personal data.
  • Stop certain processing when an opt-out right is available.

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised. Any update will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
