- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring page, when supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookie Use
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or remove cookies, although blocking them may cause some features to work differently.

Privacy on Linked Services
Links may lead to West Hartford Police, Connecticut DOC, Judicial Branch portals, records-request systems, federal locators, news outlets, or search partners. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy policy controls. Connecticut public-record access itself is governed by state law, including Conn. Gen. Stat. ยงยง1-210 and 1-212, not by this private-site notice.
Some advertising companies may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and choose interest-based ads. That tracking occurs under the advertising company's practices.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Data may still be provided to limited parties that perform a stated function:
- Search partners processing a submitted query
- Analytics providers measuring site use
- Advertising networks serving ads
- Law enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order
Security Measures and Limits
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for information under our control. No internet-connected service can promise perfect security, so the site cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Adults Only
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under eighteen. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted data may contact us and request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify the request, a user may ask to:
