Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or place entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside company that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its result. We do not keep or log those search terms on our own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email or other direct message may be retained long enough to respond and maintain the related correspondence. It stays within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, servers may receive routine technical and usage details:
- Page-view dates and times
- Visited pages and approximate time spent
- Device type and operating system
- Browser name and version
- Referring website, when supplied
- The IP address used for the connection
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They and analytics services help combine traffic information, such as which pages receive visits and where sessions end. Most browsers allow cookies to be blocked or cleared. Some site functions may work differently after they are disabled.
What We Do With This Data
- Routing a query to the selected search provider
- Maintaining availability, speed, and core site functions
- Finding and repairing technical faults
- Measuring which content is useful and where it can improve
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not host, assemble, maintain, or sell a database of personal criminal records. The content identifies official routes for Warren County Sheriff records, court files, DCJS Personal Record Review, and the New York State Sex Offender Registry. Visitor data is not turned into a consumer report or a record about another person. This website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Independent companies power the search boxes. Information submitted to one of those tools is governed by that provider's privacy terms rather than this policy. Each partner controls its own retention, processing, and sharing choices, so review those terms before running a search.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Warren County agencies, New York courts, state systems, and outside services. Once a visitor leaves this website, the destination's own privacy rules control. Those rules should be read before personal information is submitted.
Advertising companies may use their systems to measure activity across websites and select ads. We do not control that external tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be received by:
- Analytics vendors measuring site traffic and performance
- Search providers processing a query submitted to their tool
- Advertising networks serving content on these pages
- A government or law-enforcement body acting under a valid legal demand
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for information under our control. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, however, and we cannot promise that unauthorized access or a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If such information is identified, a request may be made for its deletion.
Your Data Rights
Rights can vary with the law that applies to the visitor. New York Freedom of Information Law, Public Officers Law Article 6, governs requests to government agencies and does not turn this private site into a public records office. Subject to applicable privacy and consumer-protection law, a visitor may:
- Request access to personal information held about them
- Ask that inaccurate personal information be corrected
- Seek deletion where the governing law provides that right
- Object to or opt out of certain processing when legally available
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as practices or legal duties change. An updated copy will appear here with its new effective date, so visitors should review it from time to time.
Effective date: August 1, 2026
