Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you enter a name or a date of birth in one of the search boxes on this site, the entry goes to the third-party company that runs that tool and comes back as results. We do not keep or log what you typed.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you write to us by email, we keep the message so we can answer it. It stays with our team, and we will not pass it to anyone outside our organization unless a legal obligation requires it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Technical details arrive with every page load, the same way they do on most websites:
- The site that referred you here, if there was one
- Your browser and its version
- The IP address your device is using
- Your operating system and device type
- Which pages you opened and how long each stayed on screen
- A timestamp for each page view
Cookies and Analytics
This site uses cookies, which are small files a site stores on your device. They help us see which pages get read and where visitors leave. Analytics services pull that traffic information together into totals. You can block cookies in your browser at any time, though parts of the site may then behave differently.
What We Do With This Data
The collected data serves a small set of purposes:
- Delivering your search request to the partner service that handles it
- Keeping the site online and loading quickly
- Finding and fixing technical problems
- Learning which pages help readers and which need another look
- Showing advertising that may relate to your interests
No Warrant Data on File
We do not host, build, sell, or maintain a database of warrants or personal warrant information. What this site does is explain where Rock County warrant records sit and how to reach them: the Rock County District Court and Court Administration, the Rock County Sheriff's Office, and the state's public court case search. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing gathered about visitors becomes a consumer report or a file about anyone else.
Third-Party Search Partners
The search boxes here belong to outside companies. Whatever you type into one is handled under that company's privacy policy rather than this one. Those partners decide their own retention and sharing practices, and we do not control them. Read the partner's policy before you search.
Links to Other Websites
This site links out to court pages, sheriff and jail pages, state statutes, and third-party search tools. Following one of those links takes you off this site, and the destination's privacy policy takes over. Read it before you share personal details.
Some advertising partners track activity across websites to target ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Some information may still reach a limited set of recipients:
- Ad networks that place advertising on our pages
- Search partners that run the queries you submit here
- Analytics providers we use to measure traffic and performance
- Law enforcement or a government body when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
We use standard security practices for the information we hold. No site connected to the internet can promise perfect protection, and we will not claim otherwise, but we take reasonable steps to keep what we collect secure.
Users Under 18
This site is written for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has sent us data, contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Your Data Rights
Minnesota's Government Data Practices Act, Minn. Stat. chapter 13, governs data that government offices in this state hold about you, including the inspection rights described in Minn. Stat. §13.03. For the limited information this private site holds, you can:
- Ask to see what we have about you
- Ask us to correct something that is wrong
- Ask us to delete your information
- Opt out of certain kinds of processing
Court and law-enforcement records are a separate matter, and those requests go to the office that keeps the record.
Updates to This Policy
This policy can change. When it does, the revised version appears on this page with a new date, and continuing to use the site means you accept it.
Effective date: September 15, 2026
