Information You Choose to Send
Terms Entered in Search
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is passed to the outside provider that operates that tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms. The provider's policy controls its handling of the query.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share a message outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, the service may record basic technical details when a page loads:
- Internet Protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device class and operating system
- Pages opened and time spent on them
- Referring page or site, when supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookies and Similar Tools
Cookies can help measure how visitors move through the site. You may block them in your browser, although a search, preference, or other feature may then work differently.
Reasons We Use Data
Information is used only for operating, measuring, and supporting the service.
- Maintain site function and speed
- Send search requests to the selected partner
- Measure which pages visitors find useful
- Diagnose errors and security concerns
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Privacy Beyond This Site
Links lead to sheriff and corrections pages, court and records portals, federal locators, news outlets, and outside search services. Once you leave, the destination's privacy terms apply.
Some advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and select ads. Their collection occurs under their policies, not this one.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may 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 bodies acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use customary safeguards suited to a public website. No system connected to the internet can be promised breach-proof, and absolute security is not guaranteed.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contact Us page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and the data actually held, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal data we hold
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Erase eligible personal data
- Stop certain forms of processing
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as the service or law changes. An updated version takes effect when it is posted with a new effective date.
