Information You Submit
Search terms
A name, location, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party 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
If you email us or use a contact form, we retain the message and contact details as needed to respond. We do not disclose a message outside our organization unless the law requires it.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Routine logs and measurement services may record technical information when a page loads. This can include:
- Your Internet Protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device class and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when available
- Date and time stamps
Cookies
Cookies and similar storage help measure use and remember technical preferences. Browser controls can reject or remove cookies. Blocking them may cause certain site, search, analytics, or advertising features to work differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports ordinary operation and improvement. Uses include:
- Keeping pages available, stable, and responsive
- Sending a search request to the selected partner
- Learning which Garrard County resources visitors use
- Diagnosing errors, abuse, and technical faults
- Displaying advertising that may reflect likely interests
Websites Beyond Our Control
Links may lead to Garrard County offices, Lincoln or Boyle jail pages, Kentucky corrections services, release-record sources, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s own privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their systems to measure activity across different websites and tailor advertising. That cross-site processing occurs under the partner’s technology and policy, not within our own records.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Limited information may be provided to:
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Measures and Limits
We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information in our control. No internet connection, server, or storage method can be promised as fully secure. We therefore cannot guarantee that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may contact us to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and the limits of our records, a person may:
- Ask for a copy of personal data we hold
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information
- Ask that eligible information be erased
- Opt out of certain processing where that right applies
These requests concern data held by this private site. Official records held under the Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS Chapter 61, must be addressed with the government custodian that maintains them.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this Privacy Notice as services, practices, or legal requirements change. An updated version takes effect when posted here with its new effective date.
