Information You Enter
Search Terms
When you type a name, county, location, or other lookup detail into a third-party search box, that request is sent to the provider operating the tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email us or submit a message, we use the information in that message to read it, respond, and manage the related request. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless a legal duty requires it.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our systems and service providers may receive basic technical details when a page loads.
- IP address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device category and operating system.
- Pages opened and approximate time spent on them.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and support ordinary website functions. You can block cookies in your browser, but some features, ads, or analytics settings may not work the same way after blocking them.
How the Data Is Used
- To keep pages available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the partner service selected by the visitor.
- To understand which Fayette County inmate, court, and facility pages are useful.
- To detect and repair technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general interests.
Links Leaving This Site
Pages may link to WV Regional Jail search, WVDCR, Fayette County offices, court portals, federal locators, ICE ODLS, VINE, and outside search providers. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy and terms of the destination site control that visit.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites for interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through their services, not through a separate public-record database operated here.
Who May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Information may be available to limited parties that help operate or legally support the site.
- Search partners that process a visitor's submitted lookup.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
We use reasonable security practices for a public website, but no internet-connected service can be promised as breach-proof.
