Privacy Policy

This policy describes the information collected during a visit, the reasons it may be used, and the limited situations in which another party may receive it. By continuing to browse or use this website, you accept the practices stated here.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or place entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside company that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its result. We do not keep or record those search terms on our systems.

Messages and Contact Submissions

We retain an email or contact message when needed to answer it. The message remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Data We Gather Automatically

Our servers automatically receive basic technical details when a page loads:

  • Pages viewed, visit length, and page-view timestamps
  • Device type and operating system
  • Browser name and version
  • The referring website, when one is available
  • The IP address assigned to the device

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small files placed on a device. They and analytics services help us see aggregate patterns, such as popular pages and points where visits end. A browser can block cookies at any time, although doing so may change how parts of the website function.

What We Do With This Data

  • Diagnosing errors and other technical problems
  • Maintaining reliable, fast website performance
  • Routing a search request to the selected outside provider
  • Measuring which material visitors use and where improvements are needed
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests

No Criminal-Record Data on File

We do not host, assemble, maintain, or sell a database of personal criminal records. The site provides general directions to Henderson County record custodians, including the sheriff, local courts, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, and the Tennessee Sex Offender Registry. It is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not turned into a consumer report or a third-party criminal record.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by that company's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each provider controls its own retention and disclosure practices. Read those terms before running a search.

Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to courts, sheriff pages, Tennessee agencies, legal resources, or outside search services. Once you leave this website, the destination's privacy rules apply. Review them before providing personal information.

Some advertising companies may use their own systems to follow activity across websites and select targeted ads. We do not operate that cross-site tracking.

Who Might See Your Data

Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be disclosed to:

  • Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
  • Search providers selected to process a query
  • Advertising networks that serve ads on the website
  • Government or law-enforcement authorities acting under a valid legal demand

How We Protect Your Data

We use customary safeguards for information in our care. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.

Users Under 18

The website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such data, we will delete it.

Your Data Rights

Rights can vary by residence and applicable law. Tennessee's Public Records Act, principally T.C.A. §§10-7-503 and 10-7-504, governs access to and confidentiality of Tennessee government records, while T.C.A. §38-6-120 supports official TBI criminal-history dissemination. Those laws concern government records and do not turn this private site into a public agency. Subject to applicable law, a visitor may:

  • Request access to personal information we hold about that visitor
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate personal information
  • Seek deletion of personal information where the law allows
  • Opt out of eligible forms of processing

Updates to This Policy

We may revise this policy. A new version will appear here with its effective date, so visitors should review this page for current practices.

Effective date: August 8, 2026
