Privacy Policy
What we collect, why we collect it, and the California privacy rights you can exercise at any time.
Who this policy covers
This policy explains how Future Bail Bonds handles personal information collected through this website, by phone, by text, and in the course of writing and servicing a bail bond. It is written to meet the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA) and the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA).
Information we collect
Identifiers and contact information: name, phone number, email address, mailing address, and date of birth.
Bond and case information: the defendant's name and booking details, the jail or court, the charge, the bail amount, and any holds or conditions.
Cosigner and financial information: employment, residence history, references, payment card or bank details used for premium payments, and collateral records where collateral is required.
Sensitive personal information: government identification numbers and, in some cases, information about criminal proceedings. We collect this only as needed to underwrite, write, and service a bond and to meet legal and surety requirements, and we do not use it to infer characteristics about you.
Technical information: IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, and referring pages, collected automatically when you use the site.
How we use it
To respond to your call or request and quote a premium; to underwrite, post, and service a bail bond; to accept payments and administer payment plans; to communicate about court dates, check-ins, and balances; to keep records required by the California Department of Insurance and our surety; to detect fraud and protect our rights; and to improve the site.
We do not sell your personal information
Future Bail Bonds does not sell personal information and does not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under the CCPA/CPRA. We have not sold or shared personal information in the preceding twelve months, including information of consumers we know to be under 16.
Who we disclose information to
We disclose only what is necessary, and only to: the surety company backing the bond; courts, jails, and law enforcement as required to post and maintain a bond; payment processors; attorneys and cosigners named on your paperwork; and service providers such as hosting, phone, and document-signing vendors who are contractually limited to processing on our behalf. We may also disclose information when required by law, subpoena, or court order.
Cookies and tracking
The site uses cookies and similar technologies for basic operation, language preference, and aggregate analytics. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies; parts of the site may not work as intended if you do. We honor Global Privacy Control signals where our systems receive them. Because we do not sell or share personal information for advertising, a Do Not Track signal does not change our practices.
How long we keep information
We keep bond files and related records for as long as the bond is in force and afterward for the period required by California insurance regulations, surety agreements, tax law, and our legitimate recordkeeping needs. Inquiry information for bonds we never wrote is kept for a shorter period and then deleted.
Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards including encrypted transmission, access controls, and staff training. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a breach affecting California residents occurs, we will notify affected individuals as required by California Civil Code sections 1798.29 and 1798.82.
Your California privacy rights
You have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose; to request a copy of that information; to request correction of inaccurate information; to request deletion; to limit the use of sensitive personal information; and to opt out of any sale or sharing (we do neither). California's "Shine the Light" law also lets you request information about disclosures to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
We will not deny service, charge different prices, or provide a lower quality of service because you exercised these rights. Some requests are limited by law: we may need to retain records required by insurance regulators, the surety, or a court, and we cannot delete information needed to maintain an active bond.
How to make a request
Call (714) 515-5154 or use the contact page and tell us which right you want to exercise. We will verify your identity using information already in your file before acting on a request about that file. We respond within 45 days and may extend once by another 45 days with notice. An authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf with written permission and verification.
Children
The site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16, other than defendant information provided by an adult cosigner as part of a bond. If you believe a minor has provided information, call us and we will delete it.
Changes and contact
We will post any update to this policy on this page with a new effective date. Questions or privacy requests: call (714) 515-5154, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in English and Spanish. Last updated August 2026.
