The following notice applies to the New Jersey State Parole Board (SPB) website listed at www.nj.gov/parole.

Thank you for visiting the SPB web site. This Privacy Notice summarizes how information from visitors to the SPB website may be collected, used, and protected.

For the purposes of this Privacy Notice, “personal information” means information that can be used to distinguish or trace an individual's identity either alone or when combined with other personal or identifying information that is linked to a specific individual.

You may choose whether or not to provide personal information online. If you choose to provide us with personal information (e.g. an email via the SPB-Public-Info-Office@spb.nj.gov link) the SPB will use that information to respond to your message and to help the SPB reply to your inquiry. The SPB only shares the information you provide with another government agency if your inquiry relates to that agency, or as otherwise required by law. Moreover, the SPB does not create individual profiles with the information you provide or divulge information to any private organizations. The SPB does not collect information for commercial marketing purposes.

If you choose to utilize the downloadable forms provided on this website it is recommended that you complete and mail them back to the address provided on the form as there is an inherent risk in sending personal information by unencrypted email via the internet as email is not a secure medium.

The SPB does not plan on divulging information disclosed voluntarily, but may be required to do so pursuant to a request under:

1. The Right to Know law
2. The Open Public Records Act
3. Other State or Federal law
4. Pursuant to a Court Order

In the State of New Jersey, laws exist to ensure that the government is open and that the public has a right to access appropriate records and information possessed by State government. At the same time, there are exceptions to the public's right to access public records that serve various needs including the privacy of individuals. Exceptions are provided by both state and federal laws.

All the information collected at this website becomes a public record that may be subject to inspection and copying by members of the public, unless an exemption in the law exists.

The SPB does not utilize cookies or similar technologies to collect information to analyze or improve web traffic to this website. However, the State of New Jersey does utilize cookies and similar technologies on the main nj.gov website, which is linked to this website. You can view the Privacy Notice of the State of New Jersey which details how the State protects personal information that it collects and uses here at www.nj.gov/nj/privacy.html.

If you believe that your personal information is being used for a purpose other than what was intended when you submitted it or if you have any questions, complaints or privacy concerns, you may contact the SPB Privacy Officer at the following address.
