Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information collected when someone uses the site, how that information supports site operations, and when it may reach another organization. By continuing to use these pages, a visitor accepts the practices stated here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered In Search

A name, location, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. Craig County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Emails And Messages

Information sent by email or through a contact form is retained as needed to answer the message. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data Collected

When a page loads, routine logs and measurement tools may collect:

  • The device's Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when one is provided
  • Date and time stamps

Browser Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or remove them, though blocking cookies may change how some features behave.


Reasons We Use Data

Collected information is used for limited operational and measurement purposes.

  • Operate the site and maintain useful response times
  • Send search requests to the selected partner service
  • Measure which pages visitors find useful
  • Detect and correct technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy Beyond These Pages

Links lead to official release records, sheriff and corrections pages, government portals, and outside search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination's own privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.

Some advertising companies may measure activity across different websites to select ads. That tracking occurs on their systems, not as a record maintained by this site.


Limited Data Recipients

We do not sell personal information. Data may still be available to:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks serving or measuring ads
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard safeguards suited to a public website. No internet-connected service can be guaranteed secure, however, and we cannot promise that a breach will 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 may contact us to request deletion if a minor submitted information.


Your Privacy Choices

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

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

Changes To This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as practices or services change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
