Information Provided Directly
A name, location, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. The site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the message and contact details may be retained to reply. They are not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement applies.
Automatic Technical Data
Standard technical information can be collected when a page loads to operate, secure, and understand the service.
- IP address and general network information.
- Browser type, version, and device operating system.
- Device category and basic display information.
- Pages visited, time spent, referring site, and timestamps.
- Cookies or similar identifiers used for analytics and advertising.
Browser controls can block or clear cookies, although some functions may behave differently after they are disabled.
How Information Is Used
Technical and voluntary information can be used to keep the site available, route a search request to the relevant provider, understand which record-navigation material is useful, fix errors, prevent misuse, and show advertising that may reflect interests. The site does not sell personal data.
Links, Partners, and Sharing
The site links to KCSO, city police, courts, Washington DOC, federal locators, and outside search tools. Once a visitor follows an external link, that destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and handling. Advertising partners may track activity across sites on their own systems.
Information may be processed by search partners handling submitted queries, analytics services, advertising networks, or a government body or law-enforcement agency responding to a valid legal order. Those disclosures occur only as needed for the stated service or legal requirement.
Security and Young Visitors
Reasonable safeguards are used for information handled by the site, but no internet-connected system can guarantee complete security. The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian may ask that information submitted by a minor be removed.
Your Choices and Policy Changes
A visitor may request a copy of personal information held by the site, ask to correct inaccurate data, request deletion where applicable, or opt out of certain processing. Send those requests through Contact Us. This notice may change as the service changes; the revised notice takes effect when posted.
