Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that powers that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s policy and terms govern its handling.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact-form message, we keep the supplied details long enough to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may record technical details when a page loads, including:
- Internet Protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring site, when one is supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookies and Similar Storage
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and support some features. Browser controls can refuse or delete cookies. Blocking them may change how search, analytics, preferences, or advertising functions behave.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports a limited set of operational purposes:
- Keeping pages available, stable, and responsive
- Sending a search request to the chosen partner service
- Learning which Henderson County topics visitors use
- Finding errors and resolving technical problems
- Displaying advertising that may be relevant to a visitor’s interests
Privacy Beyond This Website
Links may lead to HCDC, Kentucky corrections, courts, release-record portals, federal locators, and third-party search providers. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy notice controls its collection and use of information.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and select targeted ads. That cross-site processing occurs under the partner’s controls, not in a records file maintained by this site.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Data may still be handled by:
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order
Security Has Practical Limits
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used to protect information in our control. No website, transmission method, or internet-connected storage system can be guaranteed free of intrusion or loss. We therefore cannot promise breach-proof security.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This 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 Contact Us to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on the information held and the law that applies, a visitor may ask to:
- Receive a copy of personal information kept by this site
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Delete personal information when deletion is legally available
- Opt out of certain processing where the applicable rules provide that choice
These choices concern data controlled by this private site. They do not alter an official Henderson County or Kentucky record. Access to Kentucky public records is governed separately by the Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS 61.870 through 61.884, including its exemptions and request rules.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as services or legal duties change. A new version becomes effective when posted here with an updated effective date.
