Information Collected
Search terms entered into sponsored search boxes may pass to the third-party provider that powers that tool. If you send a contact message, the message may include your name, email address, and whatever details you choose to provide. The site may also collect ordinary technical data such as browser type, device details, approximate location from IP address, referring page, pages viewed, and timestamps.
Cookies, analytics tools, ad networks, and search partners may use identifiers to measure traffic, prevent abuse, show ads, or operate search products. Public-record searches may reveal sensitive facts, so avoid sending private details unless they are needed for your request.
How Information Is Used
Information may be used to operate the site, respond to messages, monitor performance, understand which pages are useful, protect against misuse, and support advertising or sponsored search tools. Search partners use information under their own terms and privacy rules.
North Carolina public-record links, including jail and court resources, lead away from this site. The North Carolina Public Records Act, including G.S. 132-1 and G.S. 132-6, governs access to many government records, but those laws do not control this site's private analytics or partner tools.
Who May Receive Data
Information may be shared with search providers, analytics vendors, hosting providers, advertising networks, spam-prevention services, and technical contractors. Information may also be disclosed if required by subpoena, court order, law-enforcement request, or other valid legal process.
Outbound links to Hyde County, N.C. Judicial Branch, NCDAC, BOP, ICE, VINELink, and other resources are controlled by those organizations. Their privacy practices may differ from this notice.
Security and Age Limits
Reasonable steps are used to protect site data, but no website, email system, search tool, or internet transmission is guaranteed secure. This site is not intended for children under 18, and children should not submit personal information through contact forms or search tools.
Your Choices
You may disable cookies in your browser, avoid sponsored search boxes, contact official agencies directly, or request that a contact message be deleted when practical. Some analytics and advertising providers offer their own opt-out tools. This notice may be updated as services, vendors, or legal requirements change.
