Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name or place entered in a search tool is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. Clare County Recent Arrests does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Email and Contact Messages
Messages and email addresses may be retained long enough to answer the sender and maintain the exchange. They are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.
Technical Data Collected
Standard web systems can record basic technical details when a page loads. Those details may include:
- The network Internet Protocol address;
- The browser name and version;
- The device class and operating system;
- Pages viewed and time spent on them;
- The referring page, when supplied; and
- The date and time of each request.
Cookies and Preferences
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and can support basic preferences. A browser can reject or delete cookies, though some functions may then behave differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports operation and improvement of the service. Uses may include:
- Keeping pages available and responsive;
- Sending a submitted search to the selected partner;
- Understanding which content visitors use;
- Finding errors and resolving technical faults; and
- Displaying advertising that may reflect general interests.
Privacy on Linked Services
Links lead to sheriff and corrections pages, public portals, court systems, records sources, and independent search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy policy governs its collection and use of data.
Some advertising partners may use their own technology to recognize activity across websites and select ads. That processing occurs on partner systems, not on this site’s own records.
Limited Data Sharing
Personal information is not sold. It may be provided only to categories that help deliver the service or when the law requires it:
- Search partners that process a user’s query;
- Analytics providers that measure site activity;
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads; and
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard safeguards are used to protect information under our control. No website, network, or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Adults Only
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted data may contact us to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on applicable law and the information retained, a user may ask to:
- Receive a copy of personal data held;
- Correct inaccurate personal information;
- Delete eligible information; or
- Opt out of certain forms of processing.

This privacy notice may be revised as practices or requirements change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
