Covington Privacy Notice

Using the site means accepting these practices. This notice applies to site activity and not to the records systems, public agencies, or independent providers linked from the site.

Information You Provide

Search entries

A name or location typed into a search tool is sent to the independent provider operating that tool. We do not keep or log those search terms on our own systems.

Messages

When a visitor sends an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to respond. It is not shared outside our organization unless disclosure is legally required.


Technical Data and Cookies

Our systems and service providers may automatically collect technical information when a page loads. This can include an IP address, browser and version, device and operating system, pages viewed, time spent, referring site, and timestamps.

  • Network address and broad technical connection data.
  • Browser, device, and operating-system details.
  • Page visits, referral information, and visit timing.
  • Error and performance information used to maintain the service.

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can block or remove cookies, although some features may respond differently when they are disabled.


How Information Is Used

Information supports the site's operation, troubleshooting, and visitor experience. It may be used to route a search request, understand which pages are useful, maintain security, improve performance, and display advertising that may be based on interests.


Links and Advertising

The site links to sheriff, court, corrections, jail, federal, and outside search resources. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination site's privacy practices control. Advertising partners can collect activity across websites on their own systems for interest-based advertising.


When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Information can be handled by service providers that perform the functions below, or disclosed when a valid legal order requires it.

  • Search providers that process a submitted query.
  • Analytics providers that measure site use.
  • Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
  • Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal demand.

Security Practices

We use reasonable safeguards appropriate to a small informational site. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, so visitors should avoid sending sensitive information through ordinary contact methods.


Visitors Under 18

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


Your Information Choices

A visitor may ask about personal data held in a direct message or contact submission.

  • Request a copy of information we hold about you.
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate contact information.
  • Request deletion where retention is not required.
  • Object to certain processing when applicable.
