Information You Provide
Search Queries
When you type a name, location, or other search detail into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not store those search terms in its own record system.
Messages
If you email or send a message about the site, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.

How Data Is Used
- To keep pages available, stable, and fast.

Other Websites
This site links to sheriff pages, jail rosters, state correctional portals, court systems, federal locator tools, and private search providers. After you click an outside link, that website's privacy policy and terms control what happens there.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure visits or show interest-based ads across websites. That activity happens on their platforms, not in a Johnson County government record system.

- Analytics providers that measure page use.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
