Information You Choose to Provide
Search Terms
When you type a name, location, or other search detail into a partner search tool, that request is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Lee County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own site records.
Messages
If you send an email or other message connected with this site, the message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. We do not share those messages outside the organization unless the law requires it.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical details when a page loads. That information can include:
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time on those pages.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and to support advertising or analytics. You can block cookies in your browser settings, although some site or partner features may respond differently after cookies are disabled.
How the Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, readable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service when a visitor uses a partner tool.
- To learn which Lee County pages and resources are useful to readers.
- To detect errors, broken pages, abuse, or technical problems.
- To support advertising that may be based on general visitor interests.
Other Websites and Services
This site links to public jail rosters, Kentucky court and corrections pages, KOOL, VINELink, BOP, ICE, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the destination site controls how your information is handled.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize visits across different websites and deliver interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through those partners, not through an official Lee County or Kentucky government system.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Information may be made available to these limited categories when needed:
- Search partners that process search requests submitted through their tools.
- Analytics providers that help measure page use and performance.
- Advertising networks that support ads shown on or through the site.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
We use reasonable security practices for a public website, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed to be fully secure. We cannot promise that every transmission or stored message will be 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 the information can be reviewed for deletion.

- You may ask for a copy of personal information we maintain about you.
- You may request correction of information you believe is inaccurate.
- You may request deletion of information where applicable.
- You may opt out of certain processing where the law gives you that right.
Policy Changes
