Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name or location entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates the tool. This site does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Emails and Other Messages
If you send us an email or contact message, we keep the information needed to respond. We do not disclose it outside the organization unless the law requires us to do so.
Technical Information Collected
Normal website systems may record technical data 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 available
- The date and time of each request
Cookies
Cookies help us understand how visitors move through the site. You may block cookies in your browser, although some functions may then work differently.

When You Leave This Website
Links may lead to the Newton County Sheriff's Office, Newton County Jail information, Indiana MyCase, the Indiana Department of Correction, federal locators, and outside search tools. Each destination applies its own privacy policy after you follow the link.
Advertising providers may measure activity across different websites to personalize ads. That tracking occurs through their systems rather than records maintained by this site.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Information may nevertheless be handled by:
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security, Not a Guarantee
We use ordinary safeguards intended to protect information. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, so we cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion if a minor submitted information.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, you may ask for a copy of personal data we hold, request a correction, seek deletion, or object to certain processing. Send a request through the Get in Touch page.
