Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
Text entered into a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the request and supplies its results. We do not keep or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
When you email us, the message may be retained long enough to respond and maintain the exchange. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers may receive the device IP address, browser and version, operating system, device class, referring site, pages visited, time spent, and page-view timestamps. These technical details help operate and assess the website.
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. We and analytics providers may use them to measure traffic patterns, popular pages, and where visits end. Browser controls can block cookies, although some site functions may then work differently.
What We Do With This Data
Collected information may be used to keep pages available and responsive, route a search to the selected partner, understand site use, diagnose technical faults, and display advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests. We do not use visitor data to create Whitley County warrant records.
No Warrant Data on File
We do not host, compile, maintain, or sell a database of warrants or personal warrant information. The website describes public routes such as Indiana MyCase, the Whitley County Clerk of Circuit and Superior Courts, and the Sheriff's warrant phone channel. It is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not assembled into consumer reports about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate search boxes that appear on some pages. Information submitted there is governed by the provider's privacy terms, retention rules, and sharing practices rather than this policy. Review those terms before entering a query because we do not control the partner's systems.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Indiana courts, the Whitley County Clerk, Sheriff pages, legal resources, and outside search services. Once you follow a link, the destination's privacy policy applies. Advertising providers may also use their own systems to measure activity across websites.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal information. Search providers may receive queries submitted to their tools. Analytics vendors and advertising networks may receive technical or usage data needed for their services. A government body or law-enforcement agency may receive information when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for information within our control. No internet service can promise absolute security, however, and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access or a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
This website is intended for adults. We do not knowingly seek personal data from anyone younger than eighteen. Information identified as belonging to a minor will be removed when a valid deletion request reaches us.
Your Data Rights
Rights vary with a visitor's location and applicable Indiana and federal law. You may ask to access personal information held about you, request correction of inaccurate data, seek deletion where the law permits, or object to certain processing. The Indiana Access to Public Records Act, Indiana Code 5-14-3, governs access to public agency records, including requests directed to Whitley County agencies; it does not convert this private website into a public agency or control private-site data rights.
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this policy as practices or legal duties change. The updated text and a new effective date will appear here. Reviewing the current version is the best way to understand the practices in force.
Effective date: September 12, 2026
