Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy rules apply to its handling of the query and results.
Messages Sent to Us
An email or contact-form message is retained as needed to read and answer it. The message is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal demand.

How Information Is Used

Links and Advertising Systems
Links may lead to sheriff and corrections pages, court portals, custody locators, records forms, news outlets, or outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising companies may use their own technology to understand activity across multiple sites and select interest-based ads. That processing occurs through their systems, not as a Jackson County government function.

- Search partners that receive submitted queries
- Analytics providers that measure traffic
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
