Information You Choose to Send
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that 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 Sent to the Site
If you send an email or contact message, it is kept as needed to read and answer the request. The message is not shared outside the organization unless sharing is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Routine web systems can record limited technical details when a page loads. Those details may include:
- the internet protocol address used for the visit;
- browser name and version;
- device category and operating system;
- pages viewed and time spent on them;
- the referring website, when supplied; and
- timestamps associated with requests.
Cookies and Browser Controls
Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site. You can limit or block cookies through browser settings. Some site or partner functions may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
Reasons Data Is Used
Collected information supports site operation and measurement. It may be used to:
- keep pages available and responsive;
- send a search request to the selected partner service;
- measure which pages visitors find useful;
- diagnose and repair technical faults; and
- display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Privacy Beyond This Website
Links lead to sources such as the Leelanau Sheriff corrections page, the county’s FOIA release-record route, the official criminal-records launcher, other government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you follow a link, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.
Some advertising providers may measure activity across websites to select ads. That tracking occurs through their own systems and is governed by their terms, not this notice alone.
Parties That May Receive Data
Personal information is not sold. Limited data may be available to:
- search partners that process a submitted query;
- analytics providers that measure site use;
- advertising networks; and
- law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security, Real Limits
Standard safeguards are used to protect information within the site’s control. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed free from intrusion, loss, or misuse, so this site cannot promise breach-proof security.
Visitors Younger Than Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, use the Contact Us page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and the data actually held, you may ask to:
- receive a copy of personal data held about you;
- correct information that is wrong;
- erase personal data when deletion is available; or
- opt out of certain processing.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as services or practices change. An updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
