Information You Submit
Search Terms
When a visitor enters a name, county, or other detail into a third-party search tool, that query is sent to the outside provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep a separate local log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email or send a message about the site, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and handle the request. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Information Collected Automatically
Routine technical data may be collected when pages load or when visitors move through the site.
- IP address.

- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools help measure site use and keep basic features working. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some pages 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 Atkinson County jail, court, and locator pages are useful to visitors.
- To detect technical errors, abuse, or security issues.
- To display advertising that may be based on general visitor interests.
Other Websites and Public Portals
The site links to sheriff pages, jail roster resources, Georgia corrections pages, federal locators, ICE resources, VINELink, court resources, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination site's privacy policy and terms control that activity.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity or show interest-based ads across websites. Their tracking happens under their policies, not under the control of this site.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold as a standalone customer list. It may be processed or disclosed in limited ways.

- Analytics providers that measure traffic and site performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information handled through the site. No internet-connected service can promise perfect security, so this policy does not guarantee that data can never be accessed, lost, or misused.
