Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
If you enter a name or date of birth in a search widget, the query is sent to the outside provider operating that tool so it can return results. This site does not store or log the search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email the site, we retain your message so we can respond and keep the exchange within our team. We do not share the message outside the organization unless a legal obligation requires disclosure.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, the server may receive technical information about that visit, including:
- The IP address assigned to your device
- Which browser you are using and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
- The site that sent you here, if any
- Timestamps for each page view
Cookies and Analytics
Small cookie files may be stored on your device so the site and its analytics services can understand broad traffic patterns, such as popular pages and where visits end. You can block cookies in your browser settings, although some site functions may then work differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Maintaining site availability and page performance
- Forwarding a search widget query to the provider that operates it
- Reviewing aggregate use to improve pages and navigation
- Finding and correcting technical problems
- Displaying advertising that may reflect general interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, maintain, compile, or sell a warrant database or personal warrant records. It provides general directions to the courts and law-enforcement offices that may hold records in Knox County, along with explanations of the limits of statewide citation services. Knox County Warrant Records is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or records about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes shown on some pages. Information you submit through a widget is handled under that company’s privacy policy and retention practices, which this site does not control. Read the provider’s terms before you enter identifying information.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to sheriff, court, public-record, legal-aid, or third-party search websites. When you leave this site, the destination’s privacy terms govern what happens next. Review them before sharing personal information.
Some advertising providers may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select ads. This site does not operate that tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Information may be processed or disclosed by:
- Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
- Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
- Ad networks that place ads on our pages
- Law-enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal demand requires disclosure
How We Protect Your Data
We use standard safeguards intended to protect information received by the site. No internet-connected service can guarantee perfect security, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from people under 18. If you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us so we can review and remove it when appropriate.
Your Data Rights
You may contact us to ask what visitor information we hold, request correction of inaccurate information, ask that information be deleted, or opt out of certain processing where available. Texas Government Code Chapter 552 governs requests for public information held by governmental bodies; it does not make this private website a government record holder. Court records follow separate judicial-access rules.
- Ask for a copy of what we have on file about you
- Have us fix information that is wrong
- Request that we erase your data
- Opt out of certain kinds of data processing
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this policy as site practices change. The current version will appear here with its effective date, so return to this page to review later updates.
