Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when people use Stone County Inmate Population, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. Using the site means accepting these practices.

Information You Provide

Search Entries

When a name, location, or other search detail is entered into a third-party search tool, that query is sent to the provider operating the tool. Stone County Inmate Population does not keep a separate local log of those search terms.

Messages Sent to the Site

If you email the site or submit a message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and handle related follow-up. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement applies.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical information when a page loads, including:

  • Internet protocol address.
  • Browser name and version.
  • Device category and operating system.
  • Pages opened and approximate time spent on them.
  • Referring website, when the browser provides it.
  • Date and time stamps.

Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand site traffic and improve how pages work. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features or measurements may behave differently if cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • To keep the site available, stable, and reasonably fast.
  • To send search requests to the correct outside search partner.
  • To understand which Stone County jail, court, MDOC, BOP, ICE, and VINELink resource pages visitors use most.
  • To find errors, broken links, and technical issues.
  • To display advertising that may be related to visitor interests.

Links Away From This Site

Pages may link to the Stone County Sheriff's Office, the Tiger/TCSI roster, the Stone County courts, Mississippi Electronic Courts, MDOC, BOP, ICE, VINELink, public-records resources under the Mississippi Public Records Act, and private search tools. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the outside site controls that visit.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and show targeted ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Stone County Inmate Population.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold as a standalone product. It may be available to these categories of recipients when needed:

  • Search partners that process submitted search queries.
  • Analytics providers that measure site use.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid subpoena, court order, or other legal process requires disclosure.

Data Security

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information connected with the site. No internet-connected service can be guaranteed as breach-proof or fully secure.


Visitors 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, a parent or guardian may ask that it be deleted.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal information the site holds about you.
  • Ask to correct inaccurate information.
  • Ask for deletion where the law permits it.
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing where available.

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised from time to time. Updated language will be posted on this page with the new effective version.
