Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected through this site, why it is used, and when another party may receive it. By continuing to use the site, you accept these practices.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name or location entered in an embedded search tool is transmitted to the third-party company operating that tool. Poinsett County Recent Arrests does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Emails and Messages

If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain it as needed to respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.


Technical Information Collected

Normal web-service logs and analytics may record details when a page loads, including:

  • Your Internet Protocol address.
  • Your browser name and version.
  • Your device category and operating system.
  • The pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring website, when available.
  • The date and time of each request.

Cookie Use

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You can block them through browser settings, although doing so may cause some features to work differently.


Reasons We Use Information

  • Operate the website and maintain reasonable performance.
  • Send a search request to the selected outside provider.
  • Understand which guides visitors find useful.
  • Diagnose errors and other technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests.

When You Leave This Site

Links may lead to Poinsett County jail rosters, booking pages, sheriff or correctional websites, government portals, and outside search services. After you follow a link, that destination's privacy terms apply.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs under the partner's practices, not this notice alone.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal data. Information may nevertheless be handled by:

  • Search providers processing submitted queries.
  • Analytics vendors measuring site traffic.
  • Advertising networks delivering ads.
  • Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order.

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard safeguards appropriate for a public website. No system connected to the internet is completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than 18

This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted data may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal information we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
  • Ask that eligible personal information be erased.
  • Opt out of processing where that choice is legally available.

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as practices or requirements change. An updated version takes effect when posted here with a revised effective date.
