Information You Provide
Search Queries
Names, locations, or other terms entered into a search box are sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not keep its own separate 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 read it, respond, and handle any follow-up. It is not shared outside the site operation except when required by law.
Technical Data Collected
Like most websites, this site may receive routine technical data when a page loads. That data helps with site operation, analytics, abuse prevention, and troubleshooting.
- IP address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and approximate time on page.
- Referring website, when one is passed by the browser.
- Date and time of the request.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand how visitors use the site and to support advertising or analytics. You can block cookies in your browser, but some features or partner tools may behave differently.
How Information Is Used
- To keep pages available, readable, and reasonably fast.

Outside Websites
This site links to sheriff pages, corrections resources, court portals, VINE, federal locators, and third-party search services. After you follow an outside link, that website's own privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure ad activity or serve interest-based ads across websites. Those practices are controlled by the partner, not by this site.

- Search partners that process search-box queries.
- Analytics providers used to measure site traffic.
- Advertising networks used to show or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
