Privacy Policy

This policy describes information collected during a visit, why it is used, and the limited circumstances in which another service may receive it. By using Broomfield County Criminal History, you accept these data practices.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or location entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the request and supplies its results. Broomfield County Criminal History does not retain or log those query terms on its own systems.

Messages and Contact Submissions

An email may be kept as long as needed to respond and maintain the related correspondence. It remains within the operating team unless disclosure is required by law.

Data We Gather Automatically

When a page loads, server logs may collect basic technical details about the visit:

  • The IP address assigned to your device
  • Which browser you are using and its version
  • Your device type and operating system
  • The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
  • The site that sent you here, if any
  • Timestamps for each page view

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small device files that help measure visits, popular pages, and navigation patterns. Analytics providers combine that traffic information for reporting. A browser can block cookies, although doing so may change how some site functions behave.

What We Do With This Data

  • Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
  • Sending your search requests to the right partner service
  • Figuring out which pages people find useful and which need work
  • Tracking down and fixing technical issues
  • Showing ads that may line up with your interests

No Criminal-Record Data on File

Broomfield County Criminal History does not maintain, assemble, or sell a database of personal criminal records. It provides general directions to Broomfield Police Records, Broomfield Combined Courts, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, and the Colorado Convicted Sex Offender Search. It is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor information is not compiled into consumer reports or third-party dossiers.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by the provider's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each provider controls its retention and disclosure rules, so review those terms before running a query.

Links to Other Websites

Throughout the site we link to Broomfield Police pages, court portals, state agency sites, legal aid groups, and third-party search tools. Clicking any of those links takes you off our site. At that point, their privacy policy governs your visit. Read it before sharing any personal details.

Certain advertising partners may track your activity across sites to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.

Who Might See Your Data

We do not sell personal data. Some information may end up with:

  • Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
  • Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
  • Ad networks that place ads on our pages
  • Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it

How We Protect Your Data

We follow standard security practices to safeguard the data we collect. But nothing connected to the internet is bulletproof. We do what we can to keep your information secure, though we cannot promise a breach will never happen.

Users Under 18

This site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. If you think a minor has shared data with us, reach out and we'll delete it right away.

Your Data Rights

Colorado residents may have added rights under the Colorado Privacy Act, C.R.S. §§ 6-1-1301 through 6-1-1313, and the Colorado Consumer Protection Act, C.R.S. §§ 6-1-101 and following. Subject to lawful limits, you can:

  • Ask for a copy of what we have on file about you
  • Have us fix information that is wrong
  • Request that we erase your data
  • Opt out of certain kinds of data processing

Updates to This Policy

We may change this privacy policy down the road. When we do, the updated version goes up on this page with a new effective date. Check back if you want to keep tabs on how we handle your information.

Effective date: July 16, 2026
