Information You Submit
Information is collected when you send a contact message or otherwise provide it directly. Search terms entered in an embedded search tool are sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool, not to a St. Clair County government office. Avoid submitting sensitive personal details unless they are necessary.
Automatic Technical Data
Standard web technology may collect technical details when you visit.
- Internet Protocol address and general device location
- Browser, operating system, device type, and referring page
- Pages viewed, links used, and approximate visit time
- Cookies or similar identifiers used for preferences, analytics, or advertising
Your browser may let you block or remove cookies, though some functions may then work differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected data supports these limited purposes:
- Operating, securing, and improving the site
- Responding to messages sent by visitors
- Measuring traffic and diagnosing technical faults
- Displaying relevant search tools or advertising
Links Beyond This Site
Links lead to sheriff, jail, court, Missouri agency, federal, news, and search-provider websites. Their privacy practices govern information submitted there. Review each outside policy before sending a name, payment detail, or other data.
Parties That May Receive Data
Information may be shared only as needed with:
- Search partners that process queries entered in their tools
- Analytics and advertising providers that support site measurement or funding
- Service providers that host or protect site operations
- Law enforcement or another authority when disclosure is required by a valid legal order
Personal information is not sold as a standalone mailing list.
Data Security Limits
Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information, but no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed secure. Submit only what is necessary and use official government channels for record requests involving sensitive facts.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This service is not directed to people under 18, and personal information from children is not knowingly collected. A parent or guardian who believes a child submitted information may use the Contact Us page to request review.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on applicable law, you may ask to:
- Know what personal information was collected about you
- Correct or delete information you submitted directly
- Limit certain processing or withdraw consent where available
- Opt out of nonessential cookies through browser controls
A request may require reasonable identity verification. These rights concern data handled by this site, not arrest records maintained by St. Clair County or Missouri agencies.
Changes to This Notice
This notice may be revised as services or legal duties change. A revised version takes effect when posted here. Continued use after publication indicates acceptance of the updated practices.
