Information You Enter
Search Terms
When a name, location, or similar term is entered into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the search feature. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the submitted details may be kept long enough to read, route, and answer the message. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may receive routine technical information when a page loads.
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device category and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use and support basic functionality. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features or measurements may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep pages available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the relevant partner service.
- To understand which Clarke County jail, court, and locator pages visitors use.
- To find errors, abuse, outages, or other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on visitor interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to Clarke County offices, Mississippi courts, MDOC, VINE, BOP, ICE, and third-party research tools. After a visitor follows an outside link, that outside site's privacy policy and data practices apply.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and serve interest-based ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by a government office.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold as a standalone customer list. It may be made available to limited parties that help operate or protect the site.
- Search partners that process lookup requests.
- Analytics providers that measure site traffic.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used for the site, but no website, email system, analytics tool, or advertising platform can be guaranteed to be completely secure or breach-proof.
