Information You Submit
Search Terms
When a name, location, or similar detail is typed into a search tool, that query may be sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own separate database of those search terms.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and handle a related issue. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Automatic Site Data
Basic technical data may be collected when pages load. This helps diagnose errors, understand traffic, and keep the site usable.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on pages.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies may be used to measure site use and support advertising or analytics. A browser can block or delete cookies, but some features may not work the same way after that setting is changed.
How Data Is Used
- Keep pages available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- Send search requests to the correct partner service.

Outside Websites
This site links to sheriff, jailer, detention, court, Kentucky corrections, BOP, ICE, VINELink, statute, and third-party search resources. Once a visitor leaves this site, the linked website's own privacy policy and data rules apply.
Kentucky Open Records Act requests under KRS 61.872 are handled by the public agency receiving the request, not by this site. Advertising partners may also use their own systems to measure activity across websites for ad delivery and reporting.

Personal data is not sold by this site. It may be available to the following parties when needed to operate the site or comply with law.
- Search partners that process submitted lookup queries.
- Analytics providers that measure page traffic.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement or government entities when a valid legal order requires it.
Security Practices
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled through the site. No internet-connected service can be guaranteed breach-proof, so absolute security is not promised.
