Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, location, or other query entered into an outside search tool is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms apply to its handling of the query.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain the message and related contact details as needed to answer. We do not share those communications outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Cookie Use
Cookies may be used to measure how visitors move through the site and to support certain functions. You can block cookies through browser settings, though some features may then work differently.
How Information Is Used

Links and Outside Services
Links may lead to the Itasca County Sheriff, MN DOC, courts, release-record portals, or outside search services. Once you leave this site, the destination’s own privacy notice controls how it collects and uses information.
Advertising companies may use their systems to recognize activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That cross-site tracking occurs through those companies, not through records hosted by this site.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may pass to the following recipients when needed for the stated function:
- Search providers that process a submitted query
- Analytics vendors that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard safeguards intended to protect data in our control. No website, transmission method, or internet-connected storage system is completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted personal data so that a deletion request can be reviewed.
Your Information Choices
Subject to applicable law and a verified request, you may ask to exercise these rights:
