Privacy Notice

This notice explains what Scott County Inmate Population collects when visitors use the site, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using this site, you accept these privacy practices.

Information You Enter

Search Terms

When you type a name, location, or related lookup detail into a search tool, that request is sent to the outside 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 to the site, the information you provide is used to review and answer that message. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.


Information Collected Automatically

Normal website systems may collect technical details when a page loads, including:

  • Your IP address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device category and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on those pages.
  • The referring website, when one is available.
  • Date and time stamps for visits and requests.

Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand how people move through the site and to support basic site functions. You can block cookies in your browser settings, but some features or measurements may work differently if cookies are disabled.


How the Information Is Used

  • To keep the site available, responsive, and usable.
  • To send search requests to the appropriate partner service.
  • To understand which Scott County custody, court, VINE, IDOC, BOP, and ICE pages are useful to visitors.
  • To diagnose errors, broken links, and performance issues.
  • To display advertising that may be relevant to visitor interests.

Links Away From This Site

This site links to sheriff pages, jail pages, Judici, Illinois VINE, IDOC, federal locators, immigration resources, and third-party search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination site's privacy notice and data practices control.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and show interest-based ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Scott County Inmate Population.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold. It may be available to the following categories when needed:

  • Search partners that process a lookup request.
  • Analytics providers that measure site use.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid subpoena, court order, or similar legal demand requires disclosure.

Security

Reasonable technical and administrative safeguards are used, but no internet-connected website can be guaranteed to be fully secure or immune from unauthorized access.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, contact the site so deletion can be reviewed.


Your Choices and Rights

  • Ask for a copy of personal information held by the site.
  • Request correction of inaccurate information.
  • Ask for deletion when deletion is legally and technically available.
  • Opt out of certain processing where applicable law provides that right.

This Privacy Notice may be updated from time to time. Any update will be posted on this page with the revised text in effect when posted.
