Privacy Notice

This notice describes information handled when someone visits Schoolcraft County Recent Arrests, uses a partner search tool, or sends a message. It also explains why data may be used, who may receive it, and the choices available to visitors.

Information You Submit

A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. We do not retain or log those search terms on our systems. A message sent by email or through a contact form may be kept long enough to answer and manage the request. We do not disclose message content outside the organization unless the law requires it.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Ordinary technical records may be created when a browser loads a page. These records help operate and protect the service.

  • The internet protocol address used for the visit.
  • Browser name, type, and version.
  • Device category and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring website, when supplied.
  • The date and time of each request.

Cookies may help show how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or delete cookies, though blocking them can change how some features work.


Purposes for Using Data

Collected information supports a limited set of operational purposes:

  • Keeping pages available, stable, and responsive.
  • Sending a search request to the selected partner.
  • Learning which content visitors find useful.
  • Diagnosing errors, abuse, and security problems.
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect a visitor’s interests.

Other Websites and Advertising

Links may lead to the Schoolcraft County Sheriff, jail and court resources, Michigan corrections pages, government portals, or outside search services. The destination’s privacy policy applies after a visitor leaves this site. Advertising partners may use their own technology to measure visits across sites or select interest-based ads. That activity occurs on the partner’s systems.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be provided to:

  • Search partners that process a submitted query.
  • Analytics vendors that measure site use.
  • Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order.

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard safeguards suited to a public website. No internet-connected service can be promised to be fully secure, and we cannot guarantee that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This site is meant for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contact Us page to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and verification, a person may ask to:

  • Receive a copy of personal data we hold.
  • Correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Delete eligible personal information.
  • Opt out of certain processing where that right applies.

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as services or practices change. An updated version will appear on this page with a new effective date when appropriate.
