Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our own systems. The provider’s privacy terms govern its handling of the query.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share a message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
A page visit may generate routine technical and usage details:
- Your Internet Protocol address.
- Your browser type and version.
- Your device category and operating system.
- The pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is supplied.
- The date and time of a request.
Cookie Use
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and support certain functions. You can block or delete cookies through browser settings, although parts of the site may then work differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports normal site operations and the services a visitor requests.
- Maintain site performance and availability.
- Send search requests to the selected partner.
- Understand which pages visitors find useful.
- Identify and correct errors or technical problems.
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Websites and Services We Link
Links may lead to Madison County jail pages, police records routes, Kentucky court and corrections systems, government portals, news sources, or outside search services. Once you leave, the destination’s own privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across more than one website and select targeted ads. That tracking occurs under the partner’s practices, not as data stored directly by this site.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be provided to:
- Search partners that process a submitted query.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver or assess advertisements.
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Our Security Practices
We use reasonable, standard safeguards for information under our control. No internet service, storage system, or transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under eighteen. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and verification, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal data we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate personal information.
- Delete personal information in our possession.
- Stop certain processing where an opt-out right applies.

We may revise this notice as site practices or legal duties change. A revised version takes effect when it is posted here with an updated effective date.
