Information Visitors Submit
Search Terms Sent to Partners
When a visitor types a name, county, state, or similar lookup detail into a sponsored search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms. The partner's privacy policy and terms apply to its systems.
Messages and Emails
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the message content and return contact details may be kept long enough to read, respond, and manage the request. Those messages are not shared outside the organization except when required by law or a valid legal process.
Technical Data Collected During Visits
Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical information when pages load. That information helps operate the site and understand performance.
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and approximate time spent on pages.
- Referring website or search page, when available.
- Date and time of the visit.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used for analytics, advertising, and site-function measurements. Browser settings can block or delete cookies. If cookies are blocked, some measurement, ad, or partner-search features may work differently.
How the Information Is Used
- Keep pages available, usable, and reasonably fast.
- Send search requests to the correct partner provider when a sponsored tool is used.
- Understand which Adair County jail, court, Iowa DOC, VINELink, BOP, and ICE resource pages are useful to visitors.
- Identify broken links, loading errors, security issues, and other technical problems.
- Support advertising that may be based on general interests or browsing context.
Outside Websites and Public Agencies
This site links to official and third-party resources, including Adair County offices, Iowa Courts Online, Iowa Code chapter 22 open-records materials, the Iowa DOC locator, VINELink Iowa, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, ICE ODLS, and partner search tools. Once a visitor follows an outside link, the linked site controls its own privacy practices.
Advertising partners may use their own cookies or identifiers to measure ads or show interest-based advertising across websites. That activity occurs on the partner's systems, not in a jail record database hosted by this site.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold as a contact list. It may be handled by service providers or disclosed in limited circumstances.
- Search partners that process sponsored lookup queries.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and site performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, regulators, or other government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information connected with the site. No website, server, email account, or internet transmission can be promised as completely secure, so this notice does not guarantee breach-proof protection.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, a parent or guardian may request deletion of that material where reasonably possible.
Privacy Choices and Requests
- Ask for a copy of personal information the site can reasonably identify and retrieve.
- Request correction of information supplied directly to this site.
- Request deletion of contact-message information, subject to legal or operational limits.
- Opt out of certain processing where applicable law gives that right.
Notice Updates
