Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, place, or other term entered into an embedded search tool is sent to the independent company that operates that tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms apply to the query it receives.
Messages Sent to Us
If you email or use a contact feature, we retain the message and reply details as needed to respond. We do not share the message outside our organization unless a legal duty requires disclosure.

Cookie Use
Cookies may help measure how visitors use the pages and support site functions. Browser controls can reject or delete cookies, although some features may then work differently.

Information is used only for routine site and service needs.

Other Sites and Services
Links may lead to Western Tidewater Regional Jail, the Isle of Wight Sheriff, VADOC, courts, federal locators, and independent search tools. Each destination applies its own privacy policy once a visitor leaves this site.
Some advertising companies may use their own technology to observe activity across different websites for interest-based advertising. That processing occurs on their systems, not ours.

- Analytics vendors that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard safeguards are used to protect information under our control. No internet-connected service is immune from error, attack, or loss, so absolute security cannot be promised.
