Information You Submit
Search terms
A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms govern its handling of the query.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Information Collected Automatically
Routine technical data may be recorded when a page loads. It can include:
- the visitor’s IP address;
- browser name and version;
- device type and operating system;
- pages viewed and time spent on them;
- the referring site, when available; and
- date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. Browser controls can reject or remove them, although some features may work differently when cookies are blocked.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports the operation of the website and its search connections. Uses may include:
- keeping pages available and responsive;
- sending a search request to the correct partner service;
- learning which guides visitors find useful;
- diagnosing and correcting technical problems; and
- displaying advertisements that may reflect a visitor’s interests.
Outside Websites and Advertising
Links may lead to Randolph County records, sheriff and corrections pages, Missouri government portals, federal locators, and third-party search tools. After a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s own privacy policy governs its collection and use of data.
Some advertising partners may track activity across websites to select ads. That tracking takes place on the partner’s systems, not as a public record hosted by this site.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Data may be provided only as needed to:
- search partners that process submitted queries;
- analytics providers that measure site use;
- advertising networks that deliver ads; and
- law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order.
Security Practices
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used to protect information. No website, network, transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed secure against every breach, so we cannot promise absolute security.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under eighteen. Contact us to request deletion if a minor submitted personal information.
Your Data Choices
Subject to applicable law and the information we actually hold, a user may:
- ask for a copy of personal data held by the site;
- request correction of inaccurate personal data;
- request deletion of personal data; or
- object to or opt out of certain processing.
Requests may be directed through the Contact Us page.
