Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or place entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside company that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not keep or log those search terms on our servers.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email sent to us is retained as needed to respond. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers receive routine technical details when a visitor loads a page:
- The IP address assigned to your device
- Which browser you are using and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
- The site that sent you here, if any
- Timestamps for each page view
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They help show which pages receive traffic and where visits tend to end. Analytics vendors combine that activity into site-performance reports. A browser can block cookies, though disabling them may change how some features work.
What We Do With This Data
- Operating the site and improving page speed
- Routing a search request to the selected provider
- Measuring which resources visitors use most
- Finding and correcting technical faults
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
Fillmore County Criminal History does not keep, compile, or sell a database of personal criminal records. It explains how to reach the Fillmore County Sheriff, County Court, District Court, Nebraska State Patrol Criminal Identification Division, and Nebraska Sex Offender Registry. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Visitor information is not assembled into a consumer report or a record about another person.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted through a box is governed by that provider's privacy policy rather than this one. Each partner chooses its retention and disclosure practices, which are beyond our control. Review those terms before entering a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the sheriff, courts, Nebraska agencies, legal-help resources, or outside search services. Once a visitor follows an external link, the destination's privacy rules apply. Read them before providing personal details.
Some advertising providers may measure activity across websites to select ads. That tracking occurs through their systems.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be available to:
- Search providers that process a query submitted to their tool
- Analytics vendors that measure visits and performance
- Advertising networks that serve page ads
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal demand
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices are used to protect collected data. No internet service can guarantee perfect protection, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
The site is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If such information is identified, it will be removed.
Your Data Rights
Nebraska Public Records Law, Neb. Rev. Stat. §84-712, governs access to government records and does not turn this private website into a public agency. Nebraska's §29-3523 controls public dissemination of specified criminal-history outcomes by official custodians. Rights that apply to your visitor data may depend on where you live. You may ask to:
- Receive a copy of personal information held about you
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Request deletion where the law permits it
- Object to certain forms of processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as practices or legal requirements change. A new version becomes available on this page and carries its current effective date.
