Information You Submit
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Calhoun County Recent Arrests does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms apply to the query.
If you send an email or contact message, we keep the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share that correspondence outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Automatic Technical Information
Routine logs and measurement services may record limited technical details when a page loads, including:
- 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 available; and
- date and time stamps.
Cookies help measure site use and support some functions. You may block cookies through browser controls, though parts of the site may then work differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected information may be used to:
- operate the site and improve its speed;
- send a search request to the selected partner;
- understand which Calhoun County pages help visitors;
- diagnose faults and security issues; and
- display advertising that may reflect a visitor’s interests.
Services Beyond This Site
Links may lead to the Calhoun County Sheriff, Pocahontas County Jail, Iowa Department of Corrections, court portals, federal locators, news sources, or private search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use.
Advertising providers may measure activity across multiple websites to select ads. That tracking occurs through their services, not through a Calhoun County government system.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be handled by:
- search partners that process a submitted query;
- analytics vendors that measure traffic;
- advertising networks that deliver ads; and
- law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard safeguards are used to protect information within our control. No site connected to the internet can promise perfect security, so we cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, use the Contact Us page to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, you may ask us to:
- provide a copy of personal information we hold about you;
- correct inaccurate information;
- erase eligible information; or
- stop certain forms of processing.
These requests concern data controlled by this private site. Requests for a sheriff, jail, court, or Iowa public record must go to that public body under its own rules, including Iowa Code Chapter 22 where applicable.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this notice as practices or legal duties change. An updated version takes effect when posted here with a new effective date.
