Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when you use Maui County Inmate Population, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using this site, you accept these privacy practices.

Information You Submit

Search Terms

When you type a name, place, or other search term into a partner search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms.

Messages

If you email us or send a contact message, we use the information you provide to read and respond to that message. We do not share contact messages outside our organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical data when a page loads.

  • IP address.
  • Browser name and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on pages.
  • Referring website, when 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 site or partner features may respond differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • To keep the site available and responsive.
  • To send search requests to the correct partner service.
  • To understand which Maui County custody and records pages are useful.
  • To diagnose errors, broken links, and technical issues.
  • To display advertising that may be relevant to visitor interests.

Other Websites and Public-Record Portals

This site links to resources such as Hawaii SAVIN / VINELink, Maui County GovQA, eCourt Kokua, Hawaii DCR pages, BOP, ICE ODLS, and outside search tools. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the destination website controls its collection and use of information.

Advertising partners may also use their own systems to recognize activity across websites for interest-based advertising. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Maui County Inmate Population.


Who May Receive Information

We do not sell personal data. Information may be available to the following categories of recipients when needed for site operation, advertising, analytics, or legal compliance.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid subpoena, court order, or other legal process.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards for the information handled through this site, but no internet-connected service can be promised as breach-proof or perfectly secure.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.


Your Choices and Rights

  • Ask for a copy of personal information we hold about you.
  • Ask us to correct information that is wrong.
  • Request deletion of personal information where deletion is available.
  • Opt out of certain processing where applicable law gives that right.

Hawaii public-record access rules, including the Uniform Information Practices Act, HRS Chapter 92F, govern records held by Hawaii government agencies. This privacy notice applies to this private website, not to agency records maintained by Maui County, Hawaii DCR, the courts, BOP, or ICE.


Policy Updates

We may revise this notice from time to time. Updated terms will be posted on this page with the new effective version reflected by the posted text.
