Information You Provide
Search Terms
When a visitor enters a name, county, state, or similar detail into a search tool, that query may be sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or other contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may collect ordinary technical information when a page loads.
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time on page.
- Referring website, when one is provided.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site usage, support analytics, and help advertising work properly. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep pages available, readable, and fast.
- To route search requests to the appropriate outside search provider.
- To understand which Grant County, Minnesota records pages are useful to visitors.
- To detect errors, abuse, and technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general visitor interests.
Outside Websites
Links may lead to Grant County pages, Traverse County Jail resources, Minnesota DOC and MCRO tools, federal locators, ICE resources, and third-party search providers. Once a visitor leaves this site, the privacy policy of the destination site controls that visit.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across different websites for ad measurement or interest-based advertising. That tracking occurs through the partner's tools, not through a public-record file maintained here.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold as a standalone list. It may be handled by the following parties when needed for the site to operate.
- Search partners that process a query submitted through their tools.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and technical performance.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used, but no internet-connected service can be promised as completely secure. This notice does not guarantee that a breach, outage, or unauthorized access can never occur.
