Privacy Notice

This notice explains what data may be collected when you use the site, how it is used, and when it may be shared. By continuing to browse, you accept these practices.

Information You Choose to Send

Search entries

A name or location entered in a search tool goes directly to the outside provider operating that tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our systems.

Messages

If you email us or submit a contact message, we keep what you send as needed to answer. We do not share it outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Normal site and analytics systems may record technical details when a page loads.

  • Your IP address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent
  • The referring site, when supplied
  • Date and time stamps

Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You may block them in your browser, though some site or partner features may then work differently.


How Information Supports the Site

Collected data is used only for ordinary site operations and service improvement.

  • Keep pages available and responsive
  • Send search requests to the selected partner
  • Measure which pages help readers
  • Diagnose and repair technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Links and Outside Services

Links may lead to Ness County offices, jail resources, Kansas courts, corrections systems, federal locators, or outside search tools. Once you leave, that destination’s own privacy terms apply. Advertising partners may also measure activity across sites for interest-based advertising through their systems, not ours.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal data. Limited information may pass to service providers or authorities as needed.

  • Search partners that process a query
  • Analytics providers
  • Advertising networks
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security, Not a Guarantee

We use standard safeguards appropriate for a public website. No internet-connected service can promise perfect security, and we cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.


Adults Only

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so deletion can be considered.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable limits, you may ask for a copy of data we hold, correction of inaccurate data, deletion, or an opt-out from certain processing. Requests must contain enough detail for us to identify the relevant information.


Changes to This Notice

We may revise this notice as site practices change. The updated wording and a new effective date will be posted on this page.
