Information You Provide
Search Terms
If you enter a name or location in a search tool displayed on this site, the query is sent to the independent provider operating that tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our own systems.
Messages You Send
If you email us or send a message through an available contact channel, we may keep the message and the information it contains to respond or maintain a communication record. We do not share that material outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Information Collected Automatically
Like many websites, our service providers may collect limited technical information when a page is requested to operate, protect, and evaluate the site. This can include:
- Your internet protocol address.
- Your browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and the time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is supplied.
- Request dates and times.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to understand site use and help features operate. You can limit or block cookies through your browser settings, though some features may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How We Use Information
- To keep the site available, functional, and responsive.
- To direct a submitted search query to the relevant partner service.
- To understand which guides visitors find useful.
- To identify, investigate, and correct technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general interests.
Links and Advertising Outside This Site
Our pages may link to sheriff, court, corrections, locator, government, and third-party search resources. When you follow a link, the receiving site's privacy practices govern the information you provide there. Review that site's own notice and terms before submitting data.
Advertising partners may collect information about activity across websites for their own interest-based advertising systems. That activity is governed by the partner's policies and occurs on its systems, not as a public-records function of this site.
When Information May Be Shared
We do not sell personal data. Information may nevertheless be available to the following recipients when necessary for the services described here or when law requires it:
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that serve ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies responding to a valid legal order.
Security Practices
We use reasonable, commercially common measures intended to protect information handled by the site. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed secure, so we cannot promise that a transmission or stored item will never be accessed, altered, or disclosed without authorization.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe that a minor has sent us personal information, contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.
Your Privacy Choices
- You may ask whether we hold personal information about you and request a copy where applicable.
- You may ask us to correct information that is inaccurate.
- You may request deletion of information, subject to legal and operational limits.
- You may ask to opt out of certain processing where that option applies.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this privacy notice as the site or applicable requirements change. Any revision will be posted on this page with an updated effective date, and continued use after posting means the revised notice applies.
