Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, place, or other detail entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates the tool. Mississippi County Released Inmates does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider may collect and process the query under its separate policy, so review that policy before submitting information.
Messages Sent to Us
If you email us or use a contact form, we retain the message and the contact details you supply so we can review and answer it. We do not disclose those messages outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law, a valid court order, or another binding legal process.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Routine web systems create limited technical records whenever a page loads. These records help operate the site, measure traffic, and diagnose problems. The automatic details may include:
- Your internet protocol address
- Your browser type and browser version
- Your device category and operating system
- The pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when one is supplied
- The date and time of each request
Cookies and Similar Storage
Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and to support site functions. You can refuse or remove cookies through your browser controls. Blocking them may cause some tools, preferences, measurements, or advertising features to work differently.
How Information Is Used
- Operate the site and maintain reasonable speed and reliability
- Send a submitted search to the appropriate partner service
- Measure which Mississippi County resource pages visitors use
- Detect, investigate, and correct technical faults
- Present advertising that may be based on visitor interests
Websites and Services We Link
Links may lead to the Mississippi County sheriff page, the Missouri DOC offender search, the MOVANS portal, and outside search tools. Once you follow a link or use an embedded partner service, that operator's privacy policy controls its collection and handling. Mississippi County Released Inmates does not set those outside practices.
Some advertising providers may use their own technologies to measure activity across more than one website and select targeted ads. That tracking occurs on the provider's systems, not on systems controlled by Mississippi County Released Inmates.
When Data May Be Shared
Mississippi County Released Inmates does not sell personal data. Limited information may be processed or disclosed to the following parties when needed for their stated role:
- Search partners that receive and respond to submitted queries
- Analytics providers that measure site use and performance
- Advertising networks that deliver and measure advertisements
- Law enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order
Safeguarding Information
We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No website, transmission method, storage service, or internet-connected system is completely secure. Mississippi County Released Inmates therefore cannot promise that a breach, interception, or other security event 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 parent, guardian, or other person believes a minor submitted personal data to us, please use the Contacts page. We will review the request and delete information under our control when appropriate.
Your Privacy Choices
- Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of personal information that is wrong
- Ask us to erase personal data where the request applies
- Opt out of certain processing when that choice is available
Revisions to This Notice
We may revise this Privacy Notice as the site, its service providers, or applicable practices change. The updated text will be posted on this page and will carry a new effective date. Continued use after a revision means the current notice applies.
