Information You Submit
Search Entries
When you type a name, location, or other term into a sponsored search tool, that entry is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages and Contact Requests
If you email us or send a contact message, we use the information in that message to review and respond. We do not share contact messages outside our organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may collect technical information when pages load. That information can include:
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- Referring website or link, when available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to understand site use, remember technical preferences, support analytics, and help advertising systems function. You can block cookies in your browser settings, though some features may work differently after cookies are disabled.
How We Use Information
- To keep the site available, usable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the appropriate partner service.
- To understand which Greene County release-record pages are useful to visitors.
- To diagnose errors, broken links, and other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be relevant to visitor interests.
Links Leaving This Site
Pages may link to sheriff, corrections, court, public-record, VINE, BOP, ICE, legal-information, and third-party search resources. Alabama public-record statutes such as Ala. Code Section 36-12-40 and the sheriff prisoner-book statute in Ala. Code Section 36-22-8 may be discussed for records context, but the outside office or website controls its own privacy practices after you leave this site.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and show interest-based ads. Their tracking and opt-out rules are controlled by those partners, not by Greene County Released Inmates.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Information may be available to these limited categories when needed:
- Search partners that process search-tool entries.
- Analytics providers that measure site traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that place or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
We use reasonable safeguards for the information we handle. No website, server, email system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed fully secure, so we cannot promise that information is immune from unauthorized access.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
