Privacy Notice

This notice explains what Marion County Released Inmates may collect when visitors use the site, send a message, follow a link, or use a partner search tool. By using the site, you accept the practices described here, including the use of technical logs, cookies, analytics, advertising services, and outside providers.

Information You Provide

Search Queries

When a name, location, or other search term is entered into a third-party search tool, that query is sent to the provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own official jail, court, ADOC, BOP, ICE, or supervision database, and it does not store those search terms as an agency record.

Messages

If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and manage follow-up. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for disclosure.


Automatic Technical Data

Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical information when a page loads. That information helps diagnose errors, understand page use, and keep the site available.

  • IP address and general network information
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and approximate time on page
  • Referring site, if one sent the visit
  • Date and time stamps

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools may be used for analytics, ad delivery, preferences, and performance checks. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but some features or partner tools may work differently after you do so.


How Data Is Used

  • To keep pages working and loading correctly
  • To send search requests to the partner service selected by the visitor
  • To learn which Marion County release-record pages are most useful
  • To identify broken links, server errors, and security issues
  • To display ads that may be based on interests or page context

Outside Websites

The site links to sheriff, court, ADOC, ABPP, VNS, VINELink, BOP, ICE, legal, and search-provider pages. Once you leave this site, the other site's privacy policy and data practices apply. Alabama public-record links, including sources tied to Alabama Code Section 36-12-40, are controlled by the public office or publisher that maintains them.

Advertising partners may also use their own cookies or similar tools to measure activity or deliver ads across websites. Those systems are operated by the partner, not by Marion County Released Inmates.


Who May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold as an official record product. It may be processed or disclosed in limited ways tied to site operation and legal compliance.

  • Search partners that process queries submitted through their tools
  • Analytics providers used to measure site performance
  • Advertising networks used to support the site
  • Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it

Security Practices

Reasonable security practices are used for a site of this kind. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed to be error-free, attack-proof, or always available, so sensitive information should be shared only with the official agency that needs it.


Users Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, use the contact page to request review and deletion.


Your Data Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal data held by the site, if any
  • Ask that incorrect contact information be corrected
  • Ask for deletion when retention is not required
  • Opt out of certain processing where applicable law allows

Policy Updates

This privacy notice may be updated when site tools, laws, or data practices change. The revised version takes effect when it is posted on this page.
