Information You Provide
Search Terms
When you enter a name, county, or location into a search box, that query is sent to the outside provider that operates the tool. Lyon County Inmate Population does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. We do not share those messages outside the organization unless a legal requirement makes disclosure necessary.
Information Collected During a Visit
Like most websites, this site may receive basic technical data when a page loads.
- Your IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is provided.
- Date and time stamps connected to the visit.
Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through pages about the Lyon County Detention Center, Kansas VINELink, KASPER, BOP, ICE ODLS, and related records resources. You can block cookies in your browser, although some features or measurements may work differently after doing so.
How the Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, readable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service when a partner tool is used.
- To understand which Lyon County jail, court, and locator pages help readers most.
- To diagnose errors, broken pages, or other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general visitor interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to resources such as the Lyon County Sheriff's Office, the detention center page, the sheriff open-records page at lyoncountyks.gov/373/Open-Records-Request, Kansas VINELink at vinelink.vineapps.com/state/KS, KDOC KASPER, the Kansas court portal, BOP, ICE ODLS, and third-party search tools. Once you leave this site, the privacy notice for that outside service controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and show interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through their services, not through an official Lyon County or Kansas government system.

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may still be received by the following parties when needed for site operation or legal compliance.
- Search partners that process search-box queries.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and site performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid subpoena, court order, or other lawful demand requires it.
Security Practices
Reasonable security practices are used for this site, but no internet-connected website, email system, analytics service, or advertising platform can be guaranteed breach-proof.
