Information You Submit
Partner Search Queries
A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Greene County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy terms govern its handling of the query and any result.
Messages Sent to Us
An email or contact-form message is retained as needed to read the request and send a reply. Message content is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal process.
Technical Visit Data
Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may record technical details when a page loads. That data can include:
- The visitor's internet protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when supplied
- Date and time stamps for the visit
Cookie Controls
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and may support advertising functions. A browser can reject or remove cookies. Some site or partner features may work differently when cookies are blocked.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports the operation and upkeep of this Greene County resource. It may be used to:
- Keep pages available and performing well
- Send search requests to the correct partner service
- Understand which pages visitors find useful
- Diagnose errors, abuse, and technical faults
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Websites Operated by Others
Links lead to Greene County Sheriff and court resources, Illinois Department of Corrections pages, federal locators, legal resources, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination operator's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to observe activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through the partner's technology, not through a Greene County government record held by this site.
Parties That May Receive Data
Personal data is not sold by Greene County Released Inmates. Limited information may be handled by:
- Search partners processing a submitted query
- Analytics providers measuring site visits
- Advertising networks delivering or measuring ads
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard administrative and technical practices are used to protect information under the site's control. No internet-connected service, email route, storage system, or data transmission can be promised as completely secure. This notice does not offer a breach-proof guarantee.
Visitors Under Eighteen
The 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 personal data may use the Contact Us route to request review and deletion.
Your Information Choices
Subject to applicable law and the ability to verify a request, a person may ask to:
- Receive a copy of personal data held by the site
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Delete personal data that need not be retained
- Opt out of certain processing where that right applies
These choices concern data controlled by this site. An official Illinois or Greene County public record remains with its government custodian and is governed by the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140, and other applicable record laws. Requests about partner-held data must go to that partner.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as site practices, services, or legal duties change. A revised version becomes available on this page with a new effective date when it is posted.
