Information You Provide
Search entries
A name or location entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not store or keep a log of those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you send an email or submit a message, we retain the information needed to respond. We do not share it outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

- Internet Protocol address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- Referring site, when one is supplied
- Date and time of the visit
Cookies
Cookies help us understand site use and support some features. You may block cookies in browser settings, although parts of the site may then work differently.
How Technical Information Is Used
We use available information to operate the guide and understand whether it works as intended.

- Learn which pages visitors find useful
- Diagnose and correct technical problems
- Support advertising that may reflect inferred interests
Other Websites and Public Records
This guide links to sheriff, jail, court, city, corrections, and outside search websites. Once you follow a link, the receiving site’s own privacy policy controls its data handling. Advertising partners may also collect activity across websites on their own systems for interest-based advertising.
Missouri public-record access is governed by the Sunshine Law, §§610.010 through 610.030, including custodian and fee provisions in §§610.023 and 610.026. Those statutes govern government-record requests, not this site’s private-site practices.
Who May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared only with the categories below when needed for the stated purpose or required by law.
- Search partners handling a submitted query
- Analytics providers
- Advertising networks
- Law enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order
Security Practices
We use reasonable safeguards suited to a public website, but no internet-connected system can promise complete security. We cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, altered, or lost.
Visitors Under 18
