Information You Submit
Search Terms
When a name, location, or similar search term is entered into a sponsored search box, that request is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email or otherwise send a message about the site, the message and return contact information may be kept long enough to review and respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.
Technical Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, the site may receive routine technical data when a page loads or a visitor moves between pages.
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser name, browser version, and language settings.
- Device type, operating system, and screen characteristics.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- Referring website or campaign source, if one is passed by the browser.
- Date and time stamps connected to visits and requests.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use, remember basic preferences, measure traffic, and support advertising. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some features or measurements may work differently after cookies are disabled.
How the Information Is Used
- To keep pages available, responsive, and usable.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service when a visitor chooses to use a search tool.
- To understand which Shelby County jail, court, and locator pages are useful to visitors.
- To diagnose broken links, errors, abuse, or performance problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general interests or site activity.
Links Away From This Site
The site links to Shelby County sheriff pages, jail roster tools, ODRC, court portals, federal locators, ICE resources, Ohio VINE, and third-party search services. After you leave this site, the privacy policy and terms of the destination site control what happens there.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity or show interest-based ads across different websites. That tracking occurs on their platforms, not in a public record maintained by this site.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold as a standalone list. It may be handled by the parties needed to run the site or comply with legal obligations.
- Search partners that process search terms submitted through their tools.
- Analytics providers that measure page traffic and technical performance.
- Advertising networks and related service providers.
- Law enforcement, courts, regulators, or other government bodies if a valid subpoena, court order, or similar legal process requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable administrative, technical, and operational practices are used to protect information connected with the site. No internet-connected service can be promised as completely secure, so this notice does not guarantee that data can never be accessed, lost, misused, or intercepted.
Visitors Under 18
