Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, place, or other term entered in a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Schoolcraft County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider handles the query under its own terms and privacy practices.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or submit a contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share a message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected
Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical and usage details when a page loads. Those details help measure traffic, maintain performance, and diagnose errors. They may include:
- Your Internet Protocol address.
- Your browser type and version.
- Your device category and operating system.
- The pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is supplied.
- The date and time of each visit or request.
Cookies and Browser Controls
Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and which features they use. You can limit or block cookies through your browser settings. Some parts of the site may work differently when cookies are disabled.
Reasons We Use Data
Collected information is used only for site operation, service delivery, analysis, troubleshooting, and advertising. In practice, that may involve:
- Keeping pages available, stable, and responsive.
- Sending a search request to the appropriate partner service.
- Learning which Schoolcraft County record pages visitors find useful.
- Finding errors, misuse, or technical faults and correcting them.
- Displaying advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests.
Other Sites and Services
Schoolcraft County Released Inmates links to the Schoolcraft County Sheriff and Jail, Michigan Department of Corrections resources, release-record sources, government portals, and third-party search tools. Michigan public-record requests may be governed by the Michigan Freedom of Information Act, but each external service applies its own privacy policy once you leave this site. Review that policy before sending personal data or search terms.
Some advertising providers may use their own technology to observe activity across websites and tailor ads. Any such tracking occurs on the provider's systems and is controlled by that provider's policy, not by this notice.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be available to service providers that perform a defined function for the site or to a public authority acting under valid legal process. Recipients may include:
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure visits and site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Safeguarding Information
We use standard, reasonable practices intended to protect information under our control. No website, network, storage service, or Internet transmission is fully secure. We therefore cannot promise that data will never be accessed, lost, altered, or disclosed without authorization.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under age 18. If you believe a minor sent personal information to us, use the Contact Us page so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and the data actually held by this site, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal data we hold about you.
- Correct personal information that is inaccurate.
- Delete personal data when a valid erasure right applies.
- Stop or limit certain processing where an opt-out right applies.
Changes to This Notice
Privacy practices and the services used by the site may change. When this notice is revised, the updated wording will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use after an update means the revised notice applies to later activity.
