Search Terms
A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Pontotoc County Released Inmates does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages You Send
If you send an email or contact message, we retain it as needed to respond. We do not disclose the message outside the organization unless a legal requirement compels us to do so.
Technical Data Collected
Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may receive basic technical details when a page loads. This data can include:
- Your Internet Protocol address.
- The browser type and version.
- The device category and operating system.
- Pages opened and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when supplied.
- The date and time of each request.
Cookies and Similar Tools
Cookies help measure how visitors use the pages. A browser can reject or remove cookies, though a blocked cookie may cause some features to work differently.
Reasons We Use Data
Collected data is used for limited operational purposes:
- Operating the site and maintaining reasonable performance.
- Sending a search request to the selected partner.
- Understanding which resources visitors use.
- Finding errors and correcting technical problems.
- Displaying advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests.
Privacy Beyond This Site
Links may lead to official release records, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, or outside search services. Once a visitor leaves, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Some advertising companies may measure activity across different websites to select ads. That tracking occurs through their systems, not through a record kept directly by this site.
Limited Data Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Data may still be processed or received by:
- Search providers that handle submitted queries.
- Analytics vendors that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver ads.
- Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
We use common safeguards suited to an informational website. No connected service can promise perfect protection, however, so we cannot guarantee that a system will never be breached.
Adults Only
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, use the Contacts page to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and verification, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal data we hold.
- Correct inaccurate personal information.
- Erase information where deletion rights apply.
- Stop forms of processing that allow an opt-out.
