Information Visitors Submit
Search Terms
When a name, location, or other search detail is entered into a partner search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. This site does not keep a separate local log of those search terms.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the submitted information may be kept long enough to review and respond. It is not shared outside the organization except when required by law.
Automatic Technical Data
Routine technical information may be collected when a page loads, including:
- IP address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on those pages.
- Referring website, when available.
- Date and time of the visit.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand how visitors use the site. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some site features or partner tools may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, functional, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the appropriate partner service.
- To understand which Jefferson County jail, court, and facility pages are most useful.
- To diagnose errors, broken links, and technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general visitor interests.
Outside Websites and Ads
This site links to Jefferson County sheriff pages, Arkansas DOC resources, Search ARCourts, federal locators, government portals, and third-party search services. After a visitor clicks an outside link, that destination's privacy policy controls its own collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure or personalize ads across websites. That tracking is handled by the ad partner, not by this site's local files.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold. It may be available to these categories of recipients when needed:
- Search partners that process submitted search queries.
- Analytics providers used to measure site performance.
- Advertising networks used to show or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information, but no internet-connected website, email system, or third-party tool can be guaranteed breach-proof.
