Information You Choose to Send
Search entries
A name or location entered in a search box passes to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not retain or log those search terms on its own system.
Messages
An email or contact-form message may be kept 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 Automatically
Ordinary server, analytics, and advertising systems may record technical details when a page loads, including:
- The internet protocol address used for the request.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring page or site, when supplied.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can block or remove them, although some features may work differently when cookies are disabled.
Reasons We Use the Data
Collected information supports routine operation and measurement of the service.
- Operate the site and improve speed.
- Send a search request to the selected partner.
- Learn which pages visitors find useful.
- Detect and repair technical problems.
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Privacy Beyond This Website
Links lead to sheriff and corrections pages, government record portals, release sources, and outside search services. The destination's privacy policy applies after a visitor leaves this site.
Some advertising companies may measure activity across websites to select ads. That processing occurs on their systems and under their policies, not on a Morgan County government system.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Limited information may be handled by:
- Search partners that process a submitted query.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver or assess ads.
- Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Security Practices and Limits
We use standard measures intended to protect information. No internet-connected service is completely secure, however, and this notice does not promise that a breach can never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under eighteen. A parent or guardian may contact us to request deletion if a minor submitted information.
Your Information Choices
Subject to applicable law and the data actually held, a visitor may:
- Ask for a copy of personal information we retain.
- Request correction of inaccurate information.
- Ask that retained information be erased.
- Opt out of certain processing where that choice is available.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this notice as practices or requirements change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
