Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
When you enter a name or location into a search box, the query goes to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside our organization unless the law requires disclosure.
Technical Details Collected Automatically
Routine logs and analytics may record technical information when a page loads, including:
- the visitor's IP address;
- browser name and version;
- device category and operating system;
- pages viewed and time spent on them;
- the referring website, when available; and
- the date and time of the request.
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site. You may block or remove them through browser controls, although some functions may then behave differently.
Purposes for Using Information
- operate the site and maintain its performance;
- send a search request to the appropriate partner service;
- understand which pages visitors find useful;
- detect and correct technical problems; and
- display advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests.
Websites Beyond Our Control
Links may lead to McPherson County release records, sheriff and corrections pages, Kansas government portals, or third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy rules apply.
Some advertising companies may use their own systems to follow activity across multiple websites and select targeted advertisements. That tracking occurs through their technology, not through records maintained by this site.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be provided to:
- search partners that process a submitted query;
- analytics providers that measure site use;
- advertising networks; and
- law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies responding to a valid court order or other lawful demand.
Reasonable Security Measures
We use customary safeguards intended to protect information. No online service, storage system, or transmission method is completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under Age 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, contact us and request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
- ask for a copy of personal data we hold;
- request correction of inaccurate personal information;
- ask that eligible information be deleted; and
- opt out of certain processing where that choice is available.
Revisions to This Notice
We may revise this privacy notice as site practices or legal requirements change. A revision becomes effective when it is posted here with an updated effective date.
