Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or place entered in a search tool is transmitted directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not keep or record those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
We retain an email message when needed to respond. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers automatically receive basic technical details when a visitor loads a page:
- Page-view dates and times
- The referring site, when one is available
- Your device category and operating system
- Your device's assigned IP address
- Pages viewed and the time spent on them
- Browser type and version
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. We use them with analytics services to measure traffic in aggregate, including popular pages and points where visits end. You may block cookies through your browser, though doing so can change how some site functions behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Diagnosing errors and other technical faults
- Delivering a query to the selected search partner
- Measuring which resources visitors use most
- Operating, maintaining, and improving site performance
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not compile, maintain, or sell a database of personal criminal records. Elliott County guidance identifies official custodians such as the Circuit Court Clerk, the arresting agency, Kentucky State Police, and the Kentucky State Police Sex Offender Registry. Visitor information is not assembled into a report about another person. This site 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 any information submitted through those tools, including retention and sharing. We do not control those practices, so review the provider's policy before entering a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Elliott County offices, Kentucky courts and agencies, legal resources, or outside search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy applies. Examine it before providing personal details.
Some advertising companies may use their own systems to follow activity across websites for targeted advertising. We do not operate that tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. It may be available to the following limited recipients:
- Analytics providers measuring site traffic and operation
- Search providers processing a query you submit
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under valid legal process
- Advertising networks serving ads on these pages
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, commonly used safeguards protect the information we collect. No internet service can promise absolute security, however, and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
This service is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal details from a person under 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such information, we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary by residence and by the law that applies. Kentucky public-record access is governed by the Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS 61.870 through 61.884, while criminal-history dissemination rules appear in KRS Chapter 17. Those statutes govern official custodians and do not turn this private site into a government record office. Subject to applicable law, you may:
- Object to certain processing activities
- Request deletion of personal data we hold
- Ask us to correct inaccurate personal information
- Request access to personal information maintained about you
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised. A changed version becomes available on this page and carries an updated effective date, so review it periodically for current practices.
Effective date: July 26, 2026
