Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When a name or date of birth is typed into a search tool on this site, that entry passes straight to the outside provider that runs the search. The provider handles the query and returns the results. We do not keep or log the terms entered on our side.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If an email arrives in our inbox, we hold onto it long enough to reply. Messages stay with our own team. We do not pass them to anyone outside the organization unless a legal duty requires it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Each time a page loads, our servers record a few technical facts about the visit:
- The IP address of the device making the request
- The browser in use and its version
- The device type and operating system
- Which pages were opened and how long each stayed on screen
- The site that referred the visitor here, when there is one
- A timestamp for every page view
Cookies and Analytics
This site sets cookies, which are small files a browser stores on a device. They show us which pages draw traffic and where readers lose interest. Analytics services help us roll that activity into totals. A browser can be set to block cookies at any time, though some parts of the site may then behave differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site online and loading quickly
- Passing search requests to the partner service that handles them
- Learning which pages readers find useful and which need work
- Finding and fixing technical problems
- Showing advertising that may match a visitor's interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, build, compile, or sell any database of warrants or personal warrant records. What it publishes is general guidance about where Kanabec County warrant records are kept and how to check them through the sheriff's office, the district court that issues the process, and the limited state case search. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing gathered about visitors is turned into a consumer report or a file on any third party.
Third-Party Search Partners
The search boxes on this site belong to outside companies. Whatever is entered into one of those tools is handled under that partner's privacy policy rather than this one. Those partners set their own retention and sharing rules, and we have no control over them. It is worth reading the partner's policy before running a search.
Links to Other Websites
Pages here link to sheriff's office sites, court pages, state statutes, and third-party search tools. Following one of those links leaves this site, and the destination's own privacy policy then governs the visit. Read it before sharing personal details.
Some advertising partners track activity across sites to target ads. That tracking runs on their systems rather than ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. A few categories of information may reach:
- Search partners that process queries run from this site
- Analytics services that measure traffic and performance
- Ad networks that place advertising on these pages
- Law enforcement or government offices when a valid legal order compels it
How We Protect Your Data
We use standard security practices to protect what we collect. Nothing connected to the internet is ever fully secure, though. We take reasonable steps to safeguard information, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
This site is written for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent data to us, contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Your Data Rights
Minnesota's data practices law, Minnesota Statutes chapter 13, governs how state and local agencies handle government data, including the warrant and court records this site points to. Requests about government-held records go to the agency that holds them, not to us. For data this site collects, these choices are available:
- Ask what we hold that relates to you
- Ask us to correct something that is wrong
- Ask us to delete your information
- Opt out of certain kinds of processing
