Information You Provide
Names Typed Into Search Tools
If you type a name or location into a search box on this site, that query goes to the third-party provider that operates the tool. We do not keep a local log of those search terms on our servers.
Emails and Other Messages
If you send an email or submit a message about the site, we keep it long enough to reply. We do not hand that correspondence to outsiders unless a law or court order requires it.
Information Collected Automatically
Each page load can produce ordinary technical data, including:
- Internet protocol (IP) address
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, if one exists
- Date and time stamps
Cookies
Cookies help us see how people move through the Coosa County pages. You can block cookies in your browser. Some features may work less smoothly if you do.
How We Use the Data
- Keep the site available and reasonably fast
- Send search requests to the partner that runs the widget
- See which Coosa County guides are actually used
- Find and repair technical problems
- Display advertising that may relate to visitor interests
Links Away From This Site
We link to the Coosa County jail roster, Sheriff press releases, ADOC, VINELink, federal locators, and other government or commercial tools. Once you leave, that destination's privacy rules apply. Alabama open-records inspection under §36-12-40 is a government process, not something this site administers.
Some advertising partners may track activity across websites so they can show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not on a Coosa County government server and not as a consumer report.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal data. Limited information may reach:
- Search partners that process queries you submit
- Analytics providers
- Advertising networks
- Law enforcement or other government bodies when a valid legal demand requires it
Security
We use ordinary security practices for a public website. No internet system is fully secure, and we do not promise that a breach is impossible.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted data, contact us through the Contact Us page so we can delete it.
Your Data Rights
- Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct information that is wrong
- Ask us to erase information we are not required to keep
- Opt out of certain processing where the law allows
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this Privacy Notice. The updated text will appear on this page with a new effective date.
