Information Visitors Provide
Search Terms
When a visitor types a name, location, or other detail into a search box powered by a partner, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Dubois County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own records.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the message and reply address may be kept long enough to review and respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, the site may receive basic technical data when pages load.
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on those pages.
- The referring website, if one sent the visit.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and which pages are useful. A browser can be set to block cookies, but some site features or partner tools may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which Dubois County jail, court, and locator pages are most useful.
- To diagnose broken links, display problems, and other technical issues.
- To show advertising that may be more relevant to a visitor's interests.
Outside Websites
The site links to resources such as the Dubois County jail roster, sheriff and corrections pages, Indiana MyCase, Indiana VINE, IDOC, BOP, ICE, and third-party search services. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination site's own privacy policy controls that visit.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and deliver interest-based ads. That tracking takes place under the advertiser's policies, not under direct control of this site.
