Privacy Notice

This notice describes information collected when you use White County Recent Arrests, how it supports site operation, and when service providers may receive it. By continuing to use the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name or location entered in a third-party search box is transmitted to the provider operating that tool. White County Recent Arrests does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Direct Messages

If you email or otherwise contact us, we retain the message as needed to respond. We do not disclose it outside the organization unless required by law.


Technical Information Collected

Ordinary server and analytics systems may record these details when a page loads:

  • Your Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring page or site, when supplied
  • Date and time information

Cookies and Similar Storage

Cookies help measure how visitors navigate the site. You can block them through browser settings, although doing so may change how some features work.


Purposes for Using Data

  • Operate the site and maintain performance
  • Send search requests to the selected partner service
  • Understand which guides visitors find useful
  • Diagnose errors and technical problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

External Websites and Services

Our guides link to the White County sheriff and jail, Illinois VINE, court and corrections portals, news sources, and independent search tools. After you follow a link, that destination’s privacy policy governs its collection and use of information.

Advertising providers may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That cross-site processing occurs under the provider’s practices, not this site’s records.


Limited Data Disclosures

We do not sell personal information. Relevant data may be handled by:

  • Search partners processing a submitted query
  • Analytics providers measuring site use
  • Advertising networks delivering ads
  • Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal demand

Security Measures

We use standard safeguards appropriate to the site, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed immune from interception, misuse, or breach.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. Contact us if you believe a minor submitted information so it can be reviewed for deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal information we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Request deletion where applicable
  • Object to or opt out of eligible processing

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this notice as site practices change. An updated version takes effect when posted here with its new effective date.
