Information You Submit
Search Terms
When you type a name, county, state, or similar detail into a search tool, that query may be sent to the third-party provider that powers the search. Carter County Inmate Population does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, we use the information in that message to review and answer it. Those messages are not shared outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site and its service providers may collect routine technical information when a page loads.
- IP 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 traffic and improve page behavior. You can block cookies in your browser settings, although some features or partner tools may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To operate the site and keep pages loading reliably.
- To pass search requests to the correct search partner.
- To understand which Carter County record pages visitors use most.
- To detect broken pages, errors, and other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on visitor interests.
Outside Websites and Ads
This site links to jail rosters, Kentucky court and corrections resources, federal locators, government pages, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the outside website controls its collection and use of information.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and serve targeted ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Carter County Inmate Population.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Information may be processed or received by the following categories of recipients when needed:
- Search partners that handle submitted lookup queries.
- Analytics providers that measure site usage.
- Advertising networks.
- Law-enforcement or government entities when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
We use reasonable security practices for a small public-information website. No internet-connected service can be guaranteed to be fully secure, so this notice does not promise breach-proof storage or transmission.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, contact us so it can be reviewed for deletion.
Your Choices
Requests about data held by this private site are separate from Kentucky Open Records Act requests to government agencies, including requests made under KRS 61.872.
- Ask for a copy of personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate information.
- Ask that personal information be deleted.
- Opt out of certain processing where the law gives you that choice.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised from time to time. Updated terms will be posted on this page with a new effective date when changes are made.
