01Who we are
Inmate Search Central is an independent inmate-information service based at 302 S Milliken Ave, Ste E1, Ontario, CA 91761. We are not a government agency and are not affiliated with any jail, sheriff's department or law enforcement agency.
This policy explains what Inmate Search Central collects when you use this website or send an inmate search request, how we use it, and the choices you have.
02Information we collect
When you send an inmate search request, we collect only what we need to answer it:
- The defendant's first and last name
- The county of arrest
- Your name and phone number
- Your email address, if you choose to give it
- Which page you sent the request from
- Basic technical data used to block spam
03How we use it
We use your information to look up the person in county jail records and to call you back about your request.
We also use limited technical and advertising data — such as which ad or search brought you to the site — to keep the site secure and to understand which of our ads work. Our spam protection (Cloudflare Turnstile) checks that a real person is sending the form.
04Who we share it with
We do not sell your information. We do not share it with law enforcement or other third parties without your consent, unless the law requires it.
Service providers that run this website — hosting, email delivery and spam protection — process it on our behalf and only for that purpose.
05How long we keep it
We keep request details only as long as we need them to handle your request and meet our legal obligations, then delete them.
06Your choices
You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know and the right to delete.
You can also block advertising cookies in your browser settings; the search form still works without them.
07Contact us
For any privacy question or request, email californiainmatesearch1@gmail.com or call 909-310-3372. We are open 7 days a week.
