Information You Submit
A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms apply to its handling of the query.
If you send an email or contact message, the information in it is retained as needed to answer. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or remove cookies, though some functions may then work differently.
How Data Is Used
Collected information supports a limited set of operating needs.

- Diagnose errors and security issues
- Display advertising that may reflect interests
Websites Beyond Our Control
Links may lead to the Clarke County Sheriff, Iowa VINE, Iowa Courts Online, corrections pages, federal locators, public-record portals, or outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy controls.
Advertising companies may track activity across websites on their own systems to select ads. This site does not control those separate practices.
Limited Data Sharing
Personal information is not sold. It may be handled by search partners that receive queries, analytics providers, advertising networks, and law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard administrative and technical safeguards are used where appropriate. Still, no website, network, or online transmission can be promised as fully secure, and this site cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Adults Only
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and verification, a user may ask for a copy of personal data held by this site, request correction of inaccurate data, seek deletion, or object to certain processing. These rights concern this site’s data and do not alter sheriff, court, or corrections records governed by Iowa law.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as services or legal duties change. A revised version will be posted here with a new effective date.
