Wise County Privacy Notice

This notice describes what Wise County Released Inmates collects, how that information is used, and when it may pass to another service. It also explains cookies, outside links, security, and user choices. Using the site means accepting the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

A name, location, or other term entered into a search box goes to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Wise County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or contact message, we keep the information needed to answer it. We do not share that correspondence outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Ordinary server, analytics, and advertising systems may collect technical details when a page loads.

  • Your internet protocol address
  • The browser name and version
  • Device class and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when supplied
  • Date and time stamps

Use of Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. Browser settings can refuse or remove them, though some functions may work differently when cookies are blocked.


How Information Is Used

Collected information supports site operations and helps us understand whether pages work as intended.

  • Operate the site and maintain reasonable performance
  • Send a search request to the selected partner tool
  • Measure which resources visitors find useful
  • Identify and correct technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy on Linked Services

Links lead to government release records, sheriff and corrections pages, public portals, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Some advertising providers may track activity across websites to select ads. That tracking occurs through their systems and technologies, not a record database maintained by Wise County Released Inmates.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Data may reach a limited set of providers or authorities for the purposes described below.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver ads
  • Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard safeguards suited to a public website. No internet-connected service is completely secure, however, and we cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under eighteen. Contact us if a minor submitted personal information so it can be reviewed and deleted.


Your Information Choices

Subject to applicable law and the data we actually hold, you may ask us to take the following actions.

  • Provide a copy of personal data held about you
  • Correct information that is inaccurate
  • Delete qualifying personal information
  • Stop or opt out of certain processing
