Privacy Policy

This policy describes what information may be collected during a visit to Boyle County Criminal History, why it is used, when it can be disclosed, and what choices are available. By continuing to use the site, a visitor accepts these practices.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or place entered in a search tool is sent to the outside company that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and returns its results under its own policy. Boyle County Criminal History does not keep or log those search terms on its own system.

Messages and Contact Submissions

If a visitor sends an email or another direct message, the submission may be retained long enough to answer and administer the exchange. It is not shared outside the operating team unless disclosure is legally required. Do not submit criminal records or sensitive identifiers. This private site is not an official Boyle County records office and cannot process a government request.

Data We Gather Automatically

A page visit may create ordinary technical logs. The collected details can include:

  • The device's IP address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring page, when available
  • Times associated with page views

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies and similar tools may remember preferences and help measure traffic, popular pages, and where visits end. Analytics providers may aggregate those usage details. Browser controls can block cookies, although some functions may then behave differently.

What We Do With This Data

Collected information is used only for operating, measuring, and supporting the service. Those purposes may include:

  • Keeping pages available and responsive
  • Sending a search request to the selected outside provider
  • Learning which pages visitors use
  • Finding and correcting technical problems
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests

These activities do not create a Boyle County criminal-history file about a visitor.

No Criminal-Record Data on File

Boyle County Criminal History does not maintain court files, jail rosters, rap sheets, warrant lists, or Kentucky State Police Sex Offender Registry profiles. Those records remain with the public agencies that created them. A search entered into an outside provider's box is governed by that provider's own system and privacy terms.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside search providers may place or operate tools on some pages. They may collect search entries, device data, cookies, or payment details under their own policies. This site does not control their collection, matching, retention, or pricing. Review the provider's privacy notice before using its service.

Links to Other Websites

Links lead to Boyle County offices, Kentucky agencies, courts, legal resources, and outside search providers. Their content and privacy practices are independent from ours. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's terms and policies control. An advertising partner may also track activity across sites through its own systems to select ads.

Who Might See Your Data

Personal data is not sold as a standalone list. Limited information may be available to:

  • Search partners that process a query submitted to their tool
  • Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
  • Advertising networks that place ads on pages
  • Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal requirement

Vendors supporting hosting, security, or site operations may also handle information within their service role. Disclosure may occur to protect rights or safety or during a transfer of the site or its assets.

How We Protect Your Data

Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to guard information. No internet transmission or storage method is fully secure, so absolute protection cannot be promised. The safest course is not to send private identifiers or record documents through general contact channels.

Users Under 18

This service is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 18. Information is not knowingly collected from a child. If such data is discovered, reasonable steps may be taken to remove it.

Your Data Rights

Depending on applicable law, a user may have rights involving personal information supplied directly to this private site. Those rights may include:

  • Asking what personal data is held
  • Requesting correction of inaccurate data
  • Requesting deletion where the law permits it
  • Objecting to certain forms of processing

These rights do not alter government records. The Kentucky Open Records Act, KRS 61.870 through 61.884, governs eligible agency records, while KRS 17.185 governs a person's request for their own Kentucky State Police criminal-history information. A request about a court or agency record must go to its official custodian.

Updates to This Policy

This policy may be revised as practices or legal duties change. A revised version takes effect when posted, and continued use after that time signals acceptance of the update.

Effective date: July 26, 2026
