Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name, birth date, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the outside company that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. Greene County Warrant Records does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email sent to us may be retained so it can be answered and documented. We keep that correspondence within the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, the server may automatically record basic technical information about that visit:
- 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 measure page traffic and general use patterns through analytics services. Browser controls can block or remove cookies, although doing so may change how some site functions 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
This site does not host, maintain, compile, or sell a database of warrants or personal warrant-record details. It publishes general guidance about Greene County warrant records and the official Iowa District Court, clerk, and sheriff channels that maintain them. The secure Iowa On-line Warrants & Articles System is not a public search service. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not assembled into consumer reports or files about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes shown on some pages. Information submitted there is governed by that provider's policy rather than this one. Each provider sets its own retention and disclosure practices, so review those terms before running a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the Greene County Sheriff, Iowa Judicial Branch resources, other public offices, or outside search services. Once a reader leaves this site, the destination's privacy policy controls. Review it before sharing personal information.
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
Reasonable security practices are used to protect collected data. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If such information is identified, a deletion request may be made.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary by residence and applicable law. Iowa Code chapter 22 governs access to public records held by government bodies, but it does not turn this private site into a government records custodian. Subject to applicable law, you may:
- 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
This policy may be revised as site practices or legal duties change. A revised version will appear here with an updated effective date.
