Information That May Be Collected
A search entered in a third-party search box is transmitted to the partner that provides that tool. The partner, not Scott County or this private site, processes the query under its own privacy terms. A message sent to the site may include the sender’s name, email address, message text, and any information the sender chooses to provide.
Servers and service providers may automatically receive technical information such as IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, timestamps, and general interaction data. Cookies or similar storage can support basic operation, preferences, analytics, advertising, and fraud prevention.
How Information Is Used
Collected data may be used to operate and secure the site, respond to messages, repair broken links, measure traffic, understand how pages are used, limit misuse, and improve content. Search partners use submitted queries to return their results and may use data for other purposes stated in their own policies.
Cookies and Similar Tools
Cookies may remember preferences, measure visits, support advertising, or help distinguish normal traffic from abuse. Browser controls can reject or delete cookies, although some functions may work differently afterward. Signals such as “Do Not Track” are not handled uniformly across browsers and providers.
When Data May Be Shared
Information may be available to search partners, hosting and security vendors, analytics services, advertising networks, and contractors that help operate the site. It may also be disclosed when required by a valid legal order, to law enforcement where legally compelled, to protect rights or safety, or as part of a business transfer. Personal information is not promised to remain undisclosed in those circumstances.
Government and Outside Links
Links may lead to the Scott County Sheriff, Kansas courts, KASPER, VINELink, probation offices, BOP, ICE, and other independently operated resources. Their collection, security, retention, and disclosure practices are outside this site’s control. Review the notice on the destination before submitting personal data.
Records obtained through Kansas agencies may be governed by the Kansas Open Records Act, K.S.A. 45-215 et seq. That law governs agency records access. It does not turn this private site into a government custodian.
Data Security and Retention
Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used where available, but no website, transmission, or storage system can guarantee perfect security. Information may be retained as long as reasonably needed for operations, legal obligations, dispute handling, security, or the purpose for which it was supplied.
Children’s Privacy
The service is not directed to anyone under 18. The site does not knowingly seek personal information from minors. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contacts page to request review.
Your Privacy Choices
Visitors may manage cookies through their browser, avoid partner search boxes, and refrain from sending optional personal information. Depending on applicable law, a person may ask to access, correct, or delete information held directly by the site. Identity may need to be verified, and legal or security exceptions can limit a request. Requests concerning a partner or government office must go to that entity.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may change as services, vendors, or legal duties evolve. Revised language takes effect when posted. Continued use after publication means the current notice applies to later activity.
Privacy Questions
Questions about data handled directly by Scott County Released Inmates may be submitted through the Contacts page. Do not send government identifiers, custody documents, payment information, or other sensitive records.
