Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when you use the site, why it is used, and which outside services may receive it. By continuing to use the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Choose to Provide

[SUBHEAD - reword, e.g. "Search Queries"]

A name, location, or other term entered into a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

[SUBHEAD - reword, e.g. "Messages and Contact Submissions"]

If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may collect basic technical details when a page loads, including:

  • Your internet protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device class and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent
  • The referring page, when available
  • Date and time stamps

[SUBHEAD - reword, e.g. "Cookies"]

Cookies may help measure site use and support advertising or search features. You may block cookies through your browser, although some tools may then work differently or fail to load.


Reasons We Use Information

Collected information supports ordinary operation and improvement of the service. It may be used to:

  • Keep pages available and responsive
  • Send a submitted query to the selected search partner
  • Understand which pages visitors use
  • Diagnose errors and performance problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy on Linked Services

Links may lead to the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, jail lookup, Indiana courts, corrections pages, federal locators, or outside search tools. Once you leave, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Advertising partners may use their own technology to recognize activity across websites and select ads. That processing occurs within the partner's systems, not this site's record collection.


When Information May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Data may nevertheless be handled by these limited groups:

  • Search providers that process submitted queries
  • Analytics vendors that measure site activity
  • Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
  • Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order

Security Has Practical Limits

We use reasonable, standard safeguards for information under our control. No internet-connected service can promise perfect security, so we cannot guarantee that data will never be intercepted, lost, or improperly accessed.


Visitors Under Eighteen

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so that a deletion request can be reviewed.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity verification, you may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Delete eligible information
  • Stop certain types of processing

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as services or legal duties change. A revised version takes effect when posted here with its new effective date.
