Information We Receive
We may receive information supplied through a contact form or message, such as a name, email address, and the message content. Automatic technical information can include an IP address, browser type, device details, referral page, pages viewed, date and time of access, and similar log data. We may also use cookies or comparable technologies to remember settings, measure site use, provide advertising, and support basic functionality.
Do not send sensitive records through a site contact channel. That includes Social Security numbers, medical data, sealed filings, private identity documents, or booking photographs. The site is not an official records repository and does not need those materials to explain where an agency request belongs.
Search Widget Requests
A search query entered into a sponsored widget is transmitted to the outside provider that operates that widget. That provider may collect, retain, or use the query under its own notice and terms. We do not control its database, its result set, its charges, or the way it handles submitted information. Use an official Tallahatchie custodian for current booking, release, court, or corrections confirmation.
How Information Is Used
Information may be used to operate the site, answer a website message, protect against misuse, improve content, measure traffic, serve or measure advertising, and comply with a legal obligation. We may use aggregated or de-identified information for site analysis. We do not promise that any web form or transmission is completely secure.
Cookies and Similar Tools
Cookies may be set by us or by service providers such as analytics, advertising, and search partners. A browser may allow a visitor to limit or delete cookies, although some features may then work differently. Browser-based controls do not necessarily block all tracking technologies used by outside services.
Outside Services and Links
Pages link to government offices, courts, corrections systems, news sources, and other outside resources. Those websites have their own content, privacy, security, and retention practices. A link does not mean that we control, endorse, or are responsible for that service. Review the notice on the destination site before entering information there.
When Data May Be Shared
Information may be available to vendors who help operate the site, including search partners, analytics providers, hosting providers, and advertising networks. It may also be disclosed when required by law, legal process, or a valid law-enforcement request, or when reasonably needed to protect rights, safety, or site integrity. We do not sell a promise of anonymity or confidentiality.
Security and Retention
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate for a public website, but no internet transmission or storage system is risk free. We retain information for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, to meet legal duties, resolve disputes, or enforce agreements. Logs and backups can persist for a limited period after deletion from an active system.
Children and Privacy Rights
The site is not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly seek their personal information. Depending on a visitor's location, a visitor may have rights to ask about, correct, delete, or limit certain personal information. A request can be sent through the site's available contact method. We may need enough information to verify the request and may retain information where law permits or requires.
Policy Updates
We may revise this Privacy Policy as the site or applicable law changes. The version posted on this page applies from its posting date. Mississippi public-record access is governed separately by the Mississippi Public Records Act, Mississippi Code ยงยง 25-61-1 through 25-61-19, and agency procedures rather than this private policy.
