Information You Submit
Search Terms
A name or location entered in a search box is transmitted to the independent provider operating that tool. Clark County Recent Arrests does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you email or send a contact message, we retain the supplied details as needed to answer. We do not share that correspondence outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.
Technical Information Collected Automatically
Ordinary web logs and measurement tools may receive:
- Internet Protocol address;
- browser name and version;
- device category and operating system;
- pages visited and time spent on them;
- the referring website, when supplied; and
- request dates and timestamps.
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. Browser controls can reject or remove them, although blocking cookies may cause some features to work differently.
Purposes for Using Data
- Operate the site and maintain acceptable performance.
- Send a search request to the selected partner service.
- Understand which Clark County pages readers find useful.
- Diagnose errors, abuse, and technical problems.
- Display advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests.
Links and Independent Services
Links may lead to the CCDC roster, Clark County Sheriff, Winchester Police, Kentucky courts and corrections, government portals, or commercial search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy policy controls.
Advertising companies may measure activity across different sites to select ads. That processing occurs on their systems, not as a Clark County public-records function, and is separate from access rights under the Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS 61.870 through 61.884.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be processed by:
- search partners receiving submitted queries;
- analytics providers measuring site use;
- advertising networks serving or measuring ads; and
- law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order.
Security Practices
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used, but no internet service or transmission can be promised to be completely secure. We cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under 18
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 use the Contact Us page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, a person may ask for a copy of personal data we hold, request correction or deletion, or opt out of eligible processing. Submit a request through Contact Us; identity verification may be required.
