Information We Receive
Search terms
A query entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that powers that tool. The provider processes the terms under its own privacy rules, so do not submit sensitive details unless you have reviewed those rules.
Messages
If you contact us, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your name, email address, and message. Do not send private identifiers or confidential case material.
Technical activity
Web servers and analytics tools may automatically record an IP address, browser and version, device and operating system, pages viewed, time spent, referring site, and timestamps.
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or remove them, although some functions may then work differently.
How Data Is Used
- Operate the pages and maintain reasonable performance.
- Send search requests to the selected partner service.
- Measure which Henry County resources visitors find useful.
- Diagnose errors and address security or technical problems.
- Display advertising that may reflect a visitor’s interests.
Outside Sites and Advertising
Links may lead to the Henry County Sheriff’s Office, jail information, Alabama courts and corrections, federal locators, government portals, news sources, or third-party search tools. Once you leave, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That processing occurs under the partner’s policies, not this notice.
Possible Data Recipients
We do not sell personal information. Data may be handled by:
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and use.
- Advertising networks serving or measuring ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies when disclosure is required by a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard safeguards are used to protect information in our control. No website, network, storage service, or internet transmission can be promised completely secure or breach-proof.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, you may ask for a copy of personal data held about you, request correction of inaccurate data, seek deletion, or object to certain processing. Alabama public records held by HCSO or another agency are controlled by that custodian under laws including Alabama Code §36-12-40 and §36-12-45, not by this private site.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as practices or services change. A new version becomes effective when it is posted here with an updated effective date.
