Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information collected when someone uses Missaukee County Released Inmates, why it is used, and when it may be shared. It also covers outside search tools, cookies, security limits, and individual choices. By using the site, a visitor accepts these practices.

Information You Submit

Search Terms

A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that search tool. Missaukee County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages

If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not disclose the message outside the organization unless the law requires that disclosure.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Like most websites, server and analytics systems may record basic technical details when a page loads:

  • The internet protocol address used for the request
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when supplied
  • Date and time records for the visit

Cookies

Cookies may help measure how visitors move through the site. A browser can reject or remove them, though some features may then work differently.


How Information Is Used

Collected data supports the ordinary operation of the service:

  • Keeping pages available and responsive
  • Sending search requests to the selected search partner
  • Understanding which resources visitors find useful
  • Detecting faults and correcting technical problems
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect general interests

Links and Outside Services

Links lead to sheriff and corrections pages, release-record sources, government portals, and outside search providers. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy terms control its handling of information.

Advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That collection occurs on their systems, not ours.


When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal data. Information may nevertheless pass to a limited group when needed:

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks serving or measuring ads
  • Law enforcement or another public body acting under a valid legal order

Security Has Limits

Reasonable, standard safeguards are used to protect information. No internet-connected system is immune from loss, misuse, or unauthorized access, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under eighteen. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law, a person may ask to:

  • Receive a copy of personal data we hold
  • Correct information that is inaccurate
  • Delete eligible personal information
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing

Changes to This Notice

Privacy practices may change as the site or applicable requirements change. A revised notice takes effect when it is posted here with an updated effective date.
