Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice describes the information handled when someone uses Davie County Released Inmates, how that information supports the site, and when service providers or legal authorities may receive it. By continuing to use the site, visitors accept the practices stated here. A linked government portal or outside search provider applies its own privacy rules after a visitor leaves this site.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is transmitted to the independent provider that operates the tool. Davie County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider may process the query under its separate privacy policy.

Messages Sent to the Site

If a visitor sends an email or submits a contact message, we retain the message and its supplied contact details long enough to respond and manage the correspondence. We do not disclose that message outside our organization unless the law requires it.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Routine server, analytics, and site tools can record basic technical information whenever a page loads. That information may include:

  • The visitor’s Internet Protocol address.
  • The browser name and version in use.
  • The device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring website, when one is supplied.
  • The date and time of each request.

Cookies and Browser Controls

Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site and support certain functions. A browser can reject or delete cookies. Blocking them may cause some features to work differently or not retain preferences.


How Information Supports the Site

Collected information is used for limited operational purposes:

  • Operating the site and maintaining reasonable performance.
  • Sending a search request to the selected partner service.
  • Understanding which Davie County resource pages visitors use.
  • Detecting errors, abuse, and other technical problems.
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect a visitor’s interests.

Privacy Beyond This Website

Links may lead to Davie County records pages, Sheriff and corrections systems, court portals, federal locators, or independent search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy notice and data practices control.

Some advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That cross-site processing takes place on the partner’s systems, not on systems operated by Davie County Released Inmates.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Data may still be disclosed or processed in these limited settings:

  • Search partners that must process a submitted query.
  • Analytics providers that measure site use.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order.

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information in our control. No website, transmission method, or connected storage system can be guaranteed fully secure. We therefore cannot promise that a breach, loss, interception, or unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may contact us and request its deletion.


Available Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and any necessary identity check, a visitor may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold about that visitor.
  • Correct information that is inaccurate.
  • Delete personal information retained by us.
  • Stop or opt out of certain forms of processing.

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this Privacy Notice as the site or its practices change. An updated version becomes effective when it is posted here with a revised effective date.
