A name or location submitted through a search box goes to the third-party company that operates that tool. Muhlenberg County Recent Arrests does not keep or log those query terms on its own systems. The provider’s policy governs its handling of that submission.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share that correspondence outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Routine server and analytics records may capture technical information when a page loads, including:
- Your internet protocol address.
- Your browser type and version.
- Your device category and operating system.
- The pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when supplied.
- The date and time of the request.
Cookie Controls
Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site. You may block or remove them through browser settings, though some site or partner features may then work differently.
Reasons We Use Information
Collected data serves limited operational and measurement needs:
- Keep pages available and responsive.
- Send a search request to the selected partner service.
- Understand which pages visitors find useful.
- Detect and correct technical faults.
- Display advertising that may reflect user interests.
Privacy Beyond This Website
Links may lead to the Muhlenberg County Detention Center, Sheriff’s Office, Kentucky Department of Corrections, courts, federal locators, and outside search tools. After you leave this site, the destination’s privacy terms apply.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select targeted ads. That tracking occurs under the partner’s controls and policies, not ours.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be provided to:
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver ads.
- Law enforcement or another government body responding to a valid legal order.
Security Is Best Effort
We use standard safeguards suited to a public website. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, so we cannot guarantee that data will always be protected from every unauthorized event.

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contact Us page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal data we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate personal information.
- Erase information that is eligible for deletion.
