Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or another detail into a search box on this site, that entry passes straight to the outside provider running the search. The provider handles it and sends back results. We do not keep or log the terms you type on our end.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email us, we hold onto the message so we can answer it. That message stays with our team, and we will not pass it to anyone outside the organization unless a legal obligation forces it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Each time a page here loads, our servers record a few technical details about the visit:
- The IP address assigned to your device
- The browser you use and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- Which pages you opened and how long you stayed on each
- The site that referred you here, if there was one
- A timestamp for every page view
Cookies and Analytics
This site uses cookies, the small files a site stores on your device. They show us which pages draw the most visits and where readers tend to leave. Analytics services help us roll that traffic data into totals. You can block cookies through your browser settings, though a few parts of the site may then behave differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping pages online and loading quickly
- Passing your search request to the right partner service
- Learning which pages help readers and which need work
- Finding and repairing technical problems
- Serving ads that may line up with your interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, build, sell, or maintain a database of warrants or personal warrant information. It publishes general guidance about where Charlevoix County warrant records sit and how to reach them through the 90th District Court, the 33rd Circuit Court, the Charlevoix County Sheriff, and Michigan's public case search. It is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing collected about visitors is assembled into consumer reports or files about third parties.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes on this site. Whatever you type into one of those tools is handled under that partner's privacy policy rather than this one. Those partners set their own retention and sharing rules, and we have no control over them. Read the partner's policy before you submit a search.
Links to Other Websites
Pages across this site link to court pages, the sheriff's office, Michigan court records, legal aid groups, and outside search tools. Following one of those links carries you away from this site, and from that point the other site's privacy policy applies. Read it before you share personal details.
Some advertising partners may follow your activity from site to site to target ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Some information may reach:
- Search partners that handle a query you run here
- Analytics services we use to measure traffic and performance
- Ad networks that place ads on our pages
- Law enforcement or a government body when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
We apply standard security practices to the data we collect. Nothing tied to the internet is unbreakable, though. We work to keep your information safe, and we cannot promise a breach will never happen.
Users Under 18
This site is built for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has given us data, contact us and we will remove it.
Your Data Rights
Michigan law shapes how public offices handle the records they hold. The Michigan Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.231 to 15.246, covers requests to public bodies, and MCR 8.119 governs access to court case records. Those laws do not govern this private site. Even so, you can ask us to:
- Send a copy of what we hold about you
- Correct information that is wrong
- Delete your data
- Stop certain kinds of processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy may change later. When it does, the new version appears on this page with a fresh effective date. Come back if you want to follow how your information is handled.
Effective date: September 15, 2026
