Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name, birth date, or other term entered in a search tool is transmitted directly to the outside company operating that tool. We neither log nor retain those query terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
We retain a message sent to us as needed to answer it. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers automatically receive basic technical details when a page loads:
- 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 and analytics services help aggregate traffic patterns, such as popular pages and exit points. A browser can reject cookies, although doing so may change how some features behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
- Sending your search requests to the right partner service
- Figuring out which pages people find useful and which need work
- Tracking down and fixing technical issues
- Showing ads that may line up with your interests
No Warrant Data on File
We do not host, sell, maintain, or compile a warrant database or personal warrant profiles. Our content explains how to reach the Emanuel County Sheriff's Office and the issuing Georgia courts. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or dossiers about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes. Their privacy policies, not this policy, control information submitted there, including retention and sharing. Review the applicable partner policy before entering a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Emanuel County sheriff and court pages, legal-aid resources, or commercial tools outside our control. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy terms apply and should be reviewed before personal information is provided.
Certain advertising partners may track your activity across sites to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Some information may end up with:
- Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
- Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
- Ad networks that place ads on our pages
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
We follow standard security practices to safeguard the data we collect. But nothing connected to the internet is bulletproof. We do what we can to keep your information secure, though we cannot promise a breach will never happen.
Users Under 18
This site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. If you think a minor has shared data with us, reach out and we'll delete it right away.
Your Data Rights
Applicable Georgia privacy and consumer-protection law may provide additional rights. The Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. ยง 50-18-70 et seq., governs qualifying records held by public agencies; it does not convert this private website's files into government records. You may ask us to:
- Ask for a copy of what we have on file about you
- Have us fix information that is wrong
- Request that we erase your data
- Opt out of certain kinds of data processing
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this policy. A revision becomes available here with a replacement effective date, so visitors should review the page periodically.
Effective date: September 10, 2026
