Grayson Privacy Notice

This notice describes what information this site receives, why it is used, and when another party may receive it. It also covers cookies, security limits, and choices available to visitors. By continuing to use the site, a visitor accepts the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name, county, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages Sent to Us

An email or contact-form message is retained as needed to answer it. Message content is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Automatic Technical Information

Routine server and analytics records may collect technical details when a page loads. Those details can include:

  • The visitor's IP address.
  • Browser name and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring site, when one is available.
  • Date and time stamps for the visit.

Cookie Use

Cookies help measure how people use the site. A browser can reject or remove them, although some features may then work differently.


Reasons Data Is Used

Collected data supports a limited set of operating needs:

  • Keeping pages available and responsive.
  • Passing a requested search to the proper partner.
  • Learning which resources visitors use.
  • Finding and correcting technical faults.
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests.

Sites Reached Through Links

Links may lead to Grayson County offices, New River Valley Regional Jail, Virginia corrections and courts, federal locators, or outside search services. Once a visitor leaves, the destination's privacy terms apply. Advertising providers may also measure activity across sites for interest-based ads on their own systems, not on this site's systems.


Parties That May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold. Limited information may go to:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers that measure site traffic.
  • Advertising networks that deliver ads.
  • Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order.

Reasonable Security Measures

Standard safeguards are used to protect information. No internet service, storage system, or transmission method can be promised as completely secure, so this notice does not offer a breach-proof guarantee.


Visitors Younger Than Eighteen

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under eighteen. A parent or guardian may use the Contacts page to request deletion if a minor submitted information.


Your Information Choices

Depending on applicable law and the data held, a visitor may:

  • Ask for a copy of personal data maintained here.
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
  • Ask that eligible information be deleted.
  • Opt out of processing where that right applies.

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as practices or legal duties change. A new version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
