Information You Submit
[SUBHEAD - reword, e.g. "Search Queries"]
A name, county, or other term entered into a search box passes to the outside provider that operates that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
[SUBHEAD - reword, e.g. "Messages and Contact Submissions"]
If you send an email or contact message, we retain what you provide as needed to answer. We do not disclose that correspondence outside the organization unless the law requires it.

- The referring site, when supplied
- The date and time of each request

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You can block cookies through browser settings, although some features may then work differently.

Privacy Beyond This Site
Links may lead to Mills County release-record pages, sheriff and corrections resources, government portals, or outside search tools. Once you leave, the destination’s privacy policy controls its handling of information.
Some advertising companies may track activity across websites to select ads. That processing occurs through their systems, not as a record maintained by this site.
When Data Is Shared
We do not sell personal information. Data may still be received by:
- Search partners that process submitted queries
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard safeguards appropriate to a public website. No internet-connected service is fully secure, however, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Adults Only
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so we can address a deletion request.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity verification, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal information we hold
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Delete personal information where required
- Stop certain forms of processing where a right applies
Notice Changes
We may revise this privacy notice as site practices change. A revised version will appear on this page with its new effective date.
