Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, city, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider operating that tool. Madison County Recent Arrests does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms apply to the query it receives.
Messages Sent to Us
Information included in an email or contact submission is retained as needed to read and answer the message. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.

- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when available

Services Beyond This Domain
Links may lead to the Madison County jail roster, booking resources, sheriff and corrections pages, court or government portals, and commercial search tools. Once a visitor leaves this domain, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to recognize activity across different sites and select interest-based advertisements. Their tracking occurs under their policies, not this one.
Limited Information Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Information may be available to these parties when needed for the stated service or required by law:
- Search partners that process submitted queries
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks serving advertisements
- Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard safeguards are used to protect information within our control. No internet-connected service is fully secure, however, so we cannot promise that data will never be accessed, lost, or disclosed improperly.
Adults Only
The service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone younger than 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contact Us page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity verification, a visitor may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal data we hold
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Delete personal information where applicable
- Stop certain forms of processing where an opt-out right applies
