Information You Submit
Search Entries
A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms govern its handling of the request.
Messages Sent to Us
An email or contact message may be retained long enough to read it, respond, and maintain related correspondence. We do not share the message outside the organization unless doing so is required by law or needed to address the request.
Technical Visit Data
Routine server, analytics, and security systems may record technical details when a page loads. These details help operate the site and diagnose faults.
- The visitor’s IP address
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent
- A referring page, when supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookie Controls
Cookies may help measure how visitors move through the site and support advertising or analytics functions. A browser can reject or remove cookies. Some features may then work differently or retain fewer preferences.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports ordinary publication, technical, and service tasks.
- Keep pages available and responsive
- Route a search to the selected partner
- Measure which Lawrence County topics are useful
- Detect and repair technical problems
- Display advertising that may reflect interests
Outside Sites and Services
Links may lead to BSRDC, Kentucky corrections, court and federal portals, release records, or an outside search provider. Once a visitor leaves, that service’s own privacy notice applies. We do not control its collection, security, retention, or disclosures.
Advertising providers may use their own technologies to recognize activity across websites and select ads. That processing occurs on their systems under their terms, not as a Lawrence County government function.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be handled by service providers or disclosed when law requires it.
- Search partners processing submitted queries
- Analytics providers measuring site use
- Advertising networks serving or measuring ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Is Best Effort
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used for information under our control. No internet service, email route, or connected system can be guaranteed breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive custody, financial, medical, or identity documents through an ordinary message unless a secure official agency channel requires them.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This website 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 use the Get in Touch page to request review and deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and the limits of available records, a visitor may ask for a copy of personal information held by this site, request correction, seek deletion, or object to certain processing. Browser controls can also limit cookies. These requests do not control records held by BSRDC, KDOC, a court, or another linked agency.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as services, vendors, or legal duties change. A new version takes effect when it is posted here with an updated effective date. Continued use after posting is governed by the revised notice.
