How Data Is Used
Collected data supports the ordinary operation of the site.
- Maintain site performance and availability.

- Measure which pages visitors find useful.
- Detect errors, abuse, and technical problems.

Links and Advertising
Links lead to sheriff and corrections pages, government release-record portals, courts, and third-party search tools. Once you follow a link, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.
Advertising partners may use their own technologies to measure activity across different sites and tailor ads. That tracking occurs through the partner's systems and is governed by its terms.

We do not sell personal information. Data may be shared when needed with the following parties:
- Search partners that process a submitted query.

- Advertising networks that provide or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information. No internet connection, site, storage system, or transmission method is completely secure. We cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.
