Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information may be collected when visitors use Craven County Inmate Population, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using the site, visitors accept these privacy practices.

Information You Send

Search Terms

When a visitor enters a name, location, or similar term into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Craven County Inmate Population does not store those search terms on its own systems.

Messages

If someone sends an email or contact message, the message and reply details may be kept long enough to respond and manage the request. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.


Information Collected Automatically

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

  • IP address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on those pages.
  • The referring site, when one is available.
  • Date and time stamps.

Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and to support advertising or analytics functions. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features may work differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • To keep pages available, functional, and reasonably fast.
  • To send search requests to the correct partner service.
  • To understand which Craven County inmate and records pages visitors use most.
  • To identify technical errors, abuse, or performance problems.
  • To display advertising that may be relevant to visitor interests.

Outside Links

This site links to jail rosters, Craven County Sheriff's Office pages, NC DAC resources, court portals, federal locators, and third-party search tools. After a visitor follows an outside link, that site's own privacy policy and practices control.

Advertising partners may use their systems to measure activity across websites and serve interest-based ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Craven County Inmate Population.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold. It may be made available to limited parties when needed to operate the site or comply with law.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers used to measure site performance.
  • Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
  • Law enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid legal order.

Security

Reasonable security practices are used, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed completely secure. This site cannot promise that data will be immune from every unauthorized access attempt, outage, or error.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, a parent or guardian may request deletion.


Your Choices and Rights

  • Request a copy of personal data that may be held.
  • Ask for incorrect information to be corrected.
  • Request deletion where applicable.
  • Opt out of certain processing when the law provides that option.

Policy Updates

This Privacy Policy may be revised from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with the new effective date or revision date when applicable.
