Privacy Notice

This notice describes what information may be collected when someone uses Sedgwick County Released Inmates, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. It also explains cookies, outside services, security limits, and available privacy choices. By continuing to use the site, a visitor accepts these practices.

Information Visitors Submit

Search Terms

A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the independent provider that operates the tool. This site does not store or log those query terms on its own systems. The provider’s rules and privacy practices apply to the submitted search.

Messages

Email or contact-form content may be retained long enough to read and answer the message. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Standard web systems may record technical details when a page loads, including:

  • The visitor’s IP address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages opened and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when supplied
  • Date and time stamps

Cookies

Cookies help measure how people use the site. A visitor can block or remove them through browser settings, although some features may work differently when cookies are unavailable.


Purposes for Using Data

Collected information may be used to operate and improve the service:

  • Maintain site operation and performance
  • Send search requests to the selected partner tool
  • Measure which pages visitors find useful
  • Identify and repair technical problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy Beyond This Website

Links may lead to Sedgwick County records, Sheriff or corrections pages, government portals, and third-party search services. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Some advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and select targeted ads. That tracking occurs through the partner’s systems, not this site’s own query logs.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal data. Limited information may be provided to:

  • Search partners that process a visitor’s query
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks
  • Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

Standard safeguards are used to protect information within our control. No internet-connected service is completely secure, however, so we cannot promise that a breach, loss, or unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, a parent or guardian may use the Contacts page to request deletion.


Available Privacy Requests

Subject to applicable law and verification, a person may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Delete eligible data
  • Stop certain forms of processing

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as practices or requirements change. A new version becomes available on this page with an updated effective date.
