Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name, a date of birth, or any other term you type into a search box goes directly to the outside company that runs that tool. That company processes the query and returns the results. We do not keep or log what you type into those boxes.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email us, we keep the message so that we can answer it. Your message stays with our team. We do not pass it to anyone outside our organization unless a legal obligation requires it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Each time a page on this site loads, our servers record some technical details about the visit:
- The IP address your device is using
- The browser you use and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you opened and how long each one stayed on screen
- The site that referred you, when there is one
- A timestamp for each page view
Cookies and Analytics
This site uses cookies, which are small files a site stores on your device. They show us which pages get traffic and where readers tend to leave. Analytics services help us group that traffic information. You can block cookies in your browser settings at any time, though some parts of the site may behave differently if you do.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site online and loading quickly
- Passing your search request to the right partner service
- Learning which pages readers find useful and which ones need work
- Finding and fixing technical problems
- Showing advertising that may match your interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, compile, maintain, or sell any database of warrants or personal warrant records. It publishes general guidance about where Meeker County warrant records are held and how a reader can check them with the District Court, the Sheriff's Office, and the state case search. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing we collect about visitors is turned into a consumer report or a file about a third party.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes on this site. Anything you enter into one of those tools is handled under that company's privacy policy rather than this one. Those partners decide their own retention and sharing practices, and we do not control them. Read the partner's policy before you submit a search.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to court pages, sheriff and county pages, city offices, state resources, legal aid groups, and outside search tools. Following one of those links takes you away from this site, and the destination's privacy policy then governs your visit. Review it before you share any personal detail.
Some advertising partners track activity across websites in order to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not on ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Some information may reach:
- Search partners that handle the queries you run here
- Analytics services that measure traffic and performance
- Advertising networks that place ads on these pages
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure
How We Protect Your Data
We follow standard security practices to protect the information we collect. No internet service can promise perfect security, so we work to reduce risk without claiming that a breach could never happen.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Rights over personal information vary by state. Minnesota's Government Data Practices Act, Minn. Stat. ch. 13, governs how state and local government offices handle data about you, and the state does not give every visitor a general right to demand deletion from a private website. Where a right applies to us, you can:
- Ask for a copy of what we hold about you
- Ask us to correct information that is wrong
- Ask us to erase your data
- Ask us to stop certain kinds of processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy may change over time. When it does, the revised version appears on this page with a new effective date. Check back here if you want to follow how visitor information is handled.
Effective date: September 15, 2026
