Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or location entered in a search box is sent directly to the outside company that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not keep or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be retained as needed to answer it. Messages remain within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers receive basic technical details whenever a page loads:
- 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
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They help measure traffic, popular pages, and where visits end. Analytics providers combine this information into reports. A browser can block cookies, although doing so may change how parts of the site work.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
- Sending your search requests to the right partner service
- Figuring out which pages people find useful and which need work
- Tracking down and fixing technical issues
- Showing ads that may line up with your interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not maintain, compile, or sell a database of personal criminal records. Madison County guidance points readers to the sheriff, Idaho courts, the Idaho State Police Bureau of Criminal Identification, and the Idaho Central Sex Offender Registry. Visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or third-party criminal profiles, and this operation is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Their privacy policies govern any data entered there, and they set their own retention and sharing rules. Review the provider's terms before submitting a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the Madison County sheriff, Idaho courts, state agencies, legal-aid resources, or outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy policy controls. Read that policy before sharing personal information.
Certain advertising partners may track your activity across sites to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be disclosed to:
- 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 order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security measures protect the information we collect. No internet system is fully secure, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
This resource is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone younger than 18. If such data comes to our attention, we will remove it.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary by residence and applicable law. Idaho's Consumer Protection Act, Idaho Code title 48, chapter 6, and the Idaho Public Records Act, title 74, chapter 1, govern different subjects and do not turn this private site into a public agency. You may still:
- 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
