Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information collected when someone uses Ralls County Released Inmates, how that information supports the service, and when another party may receive it. It also explains cookies, security limits, and available privacy choices. Using the site means accepting these practices.

Information You Submit

Search entries

A name, place, or other term entered in a search tool passes to the independent provider that operates that tool. Ralls County Released Inmates does not keep or log those query terms on its own systems.

Messages

An email or contact submission may be retained long enough to answer it and maintain the exchange. We do not share those messages outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.


Technical Data Collected

Like most websites, the service may receive routine technical details when a page loads:

  • The internet protocol address used for the request
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when one is supplied
  • Date and time stamps for visits

Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or remove them, although blocking cookies may change how some features work.


Reasons for Using Data

Collected information supports normal site operations and helps improve how resources are presented.

  • Operate the site and maintain reasonable performance
  • Send search requests to the selected provider
  • Understand which pages visitors find useful
  • Detect and repair technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Other Sites and Advertising

Links may lead to sheriff and corrections pages, release-record portals, government systems, or independent search services. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Some advertising partners may measure activity across websites to select ads. That tracking takes place through their systems and is governed by their terms.


Limited Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information. Data may still reach these parties when needed for the stated purpose:

  • Search providers processing a submitted query
  • Services measuring traffic and site use
  • Advertising networks delivering ads
  • Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

Standard safeguards are used to protect information. No website or internet transmission can be guaranteed fully secure, so we cannot promise that a breach or loss will never occur.


Adults Only

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 it can be reviewed and deleted.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and the data actually held, a person may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of their personal information
  • Correct information that is wrong
  • Delete information when a valid right applies
  • Stop certain processing where an opt-out right exists
