Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information Clinton County Released Inmates may receive, how it may be used, and when another party may handle it. It also explains cookies, outside links, data security, and user choices. By using the site, a visitor accepts the practices stated here.

Information You Submit

Terms Sent to Search Tools

A name, location, or other term entered in a sponsored search box is transmitted to the third-party company operating that tool. Clinton County Released Inmates does not keep or log those query terms on its own system. The provider’s privacy terms govern its handling of the request.

Messages Sent to Us

An email or contact submission may be retained long enough to review and answer it. Message contents are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Ordinary web-server and analytics tools may record basic data when a page loads. That information can include:

  • The visitor’s Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when supplied
  • Date and time stamps

Cookies and Browser Controls

Cookies may help measure how visitors use the site and remember basic preferences. A browser can reject or delete cookies. Blocking them may cause some site or partner features to work differently.


How Collected Data Is Used

Collected data supports routine site operation and measurement.

  • Operate pages and maintain reasonable performance
  • Send a search request to the selected partner
  • Understand which resources visitors find useful
  • Detect and correct technical problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect general interests

Outside Websites and Advertising

Links may lead to government release records, sheriff or corrections pages, federal locators, and independent search services. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Some advertising companies may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That activity occurs on the advertiser’s systems, not within records hosted by Clinton County Released Inmates.


Parties That May Receive Data

Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be processed by:

  • Search partners that receive a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver or assess ads
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Data Safeguards

Standard administrative and technical precautions are used to protect information. No internet-connected service can promise perfect security, and this site does not guarantee that a breach or unauthorized access can never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contact Us page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

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

  • Receive a copy of personal data held by the site
  • Correct inaccurate submitted information
  • Delete personal data that may be retained
  • Opt out of certain processing where that choice applies

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as practices or legal requirements change. An updated version becomes effective when posted here with its new effective date.
