Privacy Policy

This policy describes the visitor information collected through Jessamine County Criminal History, the reasons it is used, and the limited situations in which another party may receive it. By continuing to use the website, you accept the data practices stated below.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or location submitted through a search tool is sent directly to the outside company operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its response. We do not keep a separate log or database of the terms entered there.

Messages and Contact Submissions

An email or other direct message may be retained long enough to answer and maintain the related correspondence. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal duty.

Data We Gather Automatically

Loading a page can cause the servers and analytics tools to receive basic technical details about the visit:

  • Page-view times and the pages viewed
  • Device type and operating system
  • Browser name and version
  • The device's assigned IP address
  • Visit duration on individual pages
  • A referring website, when one is supplied

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small files placed on a device. They help measure aggregate traffic, popular pages, and where visits end. Analytics providers may assist with that measurement. A browser can reject or remove cookies, although doing so may change how some features behave.

What We Do With This Data

Collected technical and submitted information supports normal site operations. It may be used for the following purposes:

  • Diagnosing errors and performance problems
  • Routing a query to the selected search provider
  • Measuring which resources visitors use
  • Operating and improving page delivery
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests

No Criminal-Record Data on File

We do not build, maintain, or sell a database of personal criminal records. Jessamine County material identifies the official routes to the Circuit Court Clerk, law-enforcement agencies, Kentucky State Police, and the Kentucky State Police Sex Offender Registry. Visitor data is not assembled into consumer reports or third-party criminal-history profiles, and this website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies operate the search boxes. Their own privacy terms govern submitted data, retention, and disclosure, and those choices are not under our control. Review the provider's policy before entering a query.

Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to Kentucky agencies, Jessamine County offices, court portals, legal-aid resources, or private search services. Once you follow an external link, the destination's privacy policy applies. Check it before providing personal details.

Advertising companies may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and select ads. Their tracking is governed by their policies.

Who Might See Your Data

Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be received by:

  • Analytics providers measuring traffic and performance
  • Search providers processing a submitted query
  • Advertising networks serving ads on the pages
  • A court, law-enforcement agency, or government body acting under a valid legal order

How We Protect Your Data

Reasonable security measures are used to protect collected information. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access or a breach will never occur.

Users Under 18

The website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If such information is identified, it can be requested for deletion.

Your Data Rights

Rights can vary with the law that applies where you live. The Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS 61.870 through 61.884, governs records held by public agencies, while KRS 17.151 addresses Kentucky State Police criminal-history information and dissemination. Those laws do not turn this private website into a government records custodian. Subject to applicable law, you may:

  • Request access to personal information held about you
  • Ask that inaccurate information be corrected
  • Seek deletion when the law permits it
  • Object to certain processing where an applicable law provides that choice

Updates to This Policy

This policy may be revised as practices or legal duties change. A replacement becomes effective when posted here, and its date will be updated.

Effective date: July 26, 2026
