Search Terms
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. Lee County Recent Arrests does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s policy controls its handling of the request.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, we retain 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 Data
Routine logs and measurement tools may collect basic technical details when a page loads:
- Internet Protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device class and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent
- Referring website, when supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You may block or remove them through browser controls, though some functions may then behave differently.
How Data Is Used
Collected information may be used to:
- operate and improve site speed;
- send a search request to the selected partner;
- understand which pages visitors find useful;
- diagnose faults and security issues; and
- display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Sites Beyond Our Control
Links may lead to Lee County jail reports, Sheriff pages, the Circuit Clerk, Illinois corrections resources, federal locators, or independent search tools. Once you leave, the destination’s privacy policy applies. Advertising partners may also measure activity across websites for interest-based ads through their own systems, not ours.
Who May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be received by:
- search partners that process submitted queries;
- analytics providers;
- advertising networks; and
- law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Security Measures
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used to protect information. No internet service or storage system can be promised as breach-proof, so absolute security is not guaranteed.
Adults Only
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. Contact us to request deletion if a minor has submitted information.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, you may ask for:
- a copy of personal data we hold;
- correction of inaccurate personal data;
