Information You Provide Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or a location into a search box on this site, the entry passes straight to the third-party provider that operates the tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our end.
Messages You Send
If you email us or send a message another way, we keep what you sent only so we can read it and reply. It stays with this site's small team and is not shared outside it unless the law requires that.
Information Gathered Automatically
Like almost every website, this one receives a short list of technical details each time a page loads:
- Your IP address
- Your browser type and version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you visit and how long you stay on each
- The site that referred you, when there is one
- The date and time of each visit
Cookies
Cookies help us measure how the site is used, such as which pages get read and where visitors run into trouble. Your browser settings can block them. If you do block cookies, parts of the site may behave differently, and that tradeoff is yours to make.
How the Information Gets Used
What we gather serves a short list of purposes:
- Keeping the site running and loading quickly
- Routing search requests to the right partner service
- Learning which pages help people and which ones miss
- Finding and fixing technical problems
- Showing ads that may match your interests
Links to Other Websites
This site links out to Butler County sheriff and court pages, Alabama state portals, federal locator services, and third-party search tools. Once you click through, the destination's own privacy policy governs, and we do not control what it collects.
Some advertising partners may follow your activity across websites to tailor the ads you see. That tracking happens on their systems, not ours, so their controls and opt-out settings are the ones that apply.
Who Might Receive Your Information
We do not sell personal information. In the ordinary course of running the site, data may reach the parties below:
- Search partners that process lookups submitted through their tools
- Analytics services that show us traffic patterns
- Ad networks that place advertising on these pages
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
How We Protect Information
Standard security practices are followed for a site of this size and type. No system connected to the internet is fully secure, though, and no honest policy can promise a breach will never happen. Please use the search tools with that limit in mind.
Visitors Under 18
This site is written for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Choices About Your Data
You can ask us to take any of the steps below, and we will honor reasonable requests:
- Send you a copy of the information we hold about you
- Correct information that is wrong
- Delete the information we hold about you
- Stop certain processing, such as interest-based ads where the tools allow it
Updates to This Policy
This policy may change as the site grows or as its tools change. When it does, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Staying on the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
