Information You Send
Search Terms
When you type a name, place, or other detail into a search box, the query is passed to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own end. The provider's privacy notice controls what happens after the handoff.
Messages and Requests
If you email the site or submit a contact message, the message and the reply history may be kept so the question can be answered. Those communications are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal process.
Technical Data Collected
Normal server and analytics tools may record basic technical details when a page loads:
- IP address
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and the time spent on each
- Referring site, when one is supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookies and Similar Tools
Cookies may help us understand how visitors use the site and keep certain features working. A browser can block or delete cookies. If they are disabled, some features may work differently.
How Information Is Used
- Keep the website available and improve its speed.
- Send a search request to the partner service selected for that tool.
- See which pages help visitors understand Tazewell County records.
- Diagnose errors, broken links, and other technical problems.
- Show advertising that may reflect general interests.
Links Beyond This Site
The guide links to the Tazewell County Sheriff's custody and warrant tables, the Justice Center's official jail pages, police FOIA portals, the Circuit Clerk, Illinois DOC, BOP, ICE, and outside search services. Once you follow a link, that organization controls its own privacy practices, records, and security. Review its notice before entering personal information.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to observe activity across sites for interest-based advertising. That tracking is governed by the partner's policies, not by this site's records guide.
Who May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Information may nevertheless be handled by these parties when their service is involved:
- Search partners that process a query submitted through their tool.
- Analytics providers that help measure page use and performance.
- Advertising networks working under their own policies.
- Law-enforcement or government bodies that present a valid legal order or other lawful demand.
Security Limits
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information, but no internet-connected system is completely secure. The site cannot promise that data will be immune from every loss, misuse, breach, or unauthorized access.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent personal data, a parent or guardian may use Get in Touch to ask that it be removed.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on applicable law and the information held, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal data kept about you.
- Correct information that is inaccurate.
- Delete information that no longer needs to be retained.
- Stop or limit certain forms of processing.
Requests should identify the information and a way to respond. A request involving an official Tazewell County custody, court, IDOC, BOP, or ICE record must go to that agency because this site does not hold those records.
Changes to This Notice
This policy may be revised as the site, its search partners, or applicable requirements change. The updated wording will be posted here with a new effective date. Continued use after a revision means the revised notice applies.
Effective date: August 21, 2026.
