Privacy Notice

This notice describes information handled when someone visits Wilkin County Released Inmates, uses a partner search box, or sends a message. It also explains cookies, outside links, security limits, and available data choices.

Information You Submit

A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms control its handling of the submitted query.

An email or other direct message is retained as needed to answer it. Message content is not shared outside the organization unless service delivery requires it or disclosure is required by law.


Automatic Technical Data

Standard server, analytics, and advertising tools may record technical details when a page loads. These details help measure use and maintain the service.

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and approximate time spent
  • Referring page or site, when supplied
  • Date and time stamps

Cookies may be used to understand site activity and support features or advertising. Browser controls can reject or remove cookies, although some functions may behave differently after they are blocked.


How Data Is Used

Collected information supports ordinary website operations.

  • Keep pages available, responsive, and secure
  • Send search requests to the selected partner
  • Measure which Wilkin County resources readers use
  • Detect errors, abuse, and technical faults
  • Present advertising that may reflect interests

Outside Websites and Advertising

Links lead to Sheriff and corrections pages, release and court records, government portals, and third-party search services. Once a reader leaves, the destination’s privacy policy controls. This site does not direct how those systems collect or retain information.

Advertising partners may use their own technologies to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That collection occurs through the partner’s systems and is governed by its disclosures and opt-out tools.


Who May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold. Limited data may be handled by providers that perform the functions described here.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure visits
  • Advertising networks that deliver and evaluate ads
  • Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Security Has Limits

Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used. No online service, storage system, or transmission method can be guaranteed fully secure or breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive information that is not needed for a message.


Adults Only

This service 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 the Contact Us page to request review and deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and identity verification, a person may ask for a copy of personal data held, correction of inaccurate information, deletion, or an opt-out from certain processing. Browser and advertising controls may also restrict cookies or interest-based ads. Requests can be made through the contact page.


Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as practices, providers, or legal duties change. A new version takes effect when posted here with its updated effective date.
