Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or location submitted through a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that search. The provider processes the query and supplies its results; we neither log nor retain the terms entered on our side.
Messages and Contact Submissions
We retain an email long enough to review and answer it. Messages remain within our organization unless disclosure is required by a legal obligation.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers automatically receive certain technical details whenever a page loads:
- The IP address assigned to your device
- Which browser you are using and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
- The site that sent you here, if any
- Timestamps for each page view
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device that help measure how visitors move through the site, including popular pages and exit points. Analytics providers combine that traffic information for us. You may block cookies through the browser, although doing so can change how some features behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
- Sending your search requests to the right partner service
- Figuring out which pages people find useful and which need work
- Tracking down and fixing technical issues
- Showing ads that may line up with your interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not maintain, compile, or sell a database of personal criminal-record information. Our content explains where Bacon County records may be requested, including the sheriff, local court clerks, the Georgia Crime Information Center, and the Georgia Sex Offender Registry. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not assembled into consumer reports or third-party criminal files.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes. Their privacy policies—not this policy—govern information entered there, and they independently determine retention and sharing. Read the applicable partner policy before sending a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Bacon County offices, Georgia agencies, court services, legal-aid resources, or commercial search providers. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy terms control. Review them before providing personal information.
Some advertising providers may use activity across websites to select targeted advertising. Their systems conduct that tracking, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Information may nevertheless be received by:
- Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
- Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
- Ad networks that place ads on our pages
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, commonly used safeguards protect information in our control. No internet-connected system is completely secure, however, so we cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
The site is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such information, we will delete it promptly.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary by residence. Georgia consumer matters are governed in part by the Georgia Fair Business Practices Act, O.C.G.A. § 10-1-390 et seq.; public-agency records are separately governed by the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70 et seq., and criminal-history dissemination by O.C.G.A. §§ 35-3-34 and 35-3-35. Subject to applicable law, you may:
- Request access to personal information held about you
- Ask that inaccurate information be corrected
- Seek deletion of your personal information
- Decline certain forms of processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised. Any revision will be posted here and identified by a replacement effective date, so review this page periodically for changes.
Effective date: July 18, 2026
