Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query entered in an embedded search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that feature. The provider processes the input under its own rules; this site does not retain or log the submitted search terms.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email is retained as needed to answer it. Access is limited within the organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.
Data We Gather Automatically
A page request can automatically produce the following technical visit data:
- 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
We use cookies on this site. These are small files stored on your device that let us see how visitors use the site: which pages get the most traffic and where people tend to drop off. Analytics services help us aggregate that traffic data. Your browser settings let you block cookies whenever you want. Some parts of the site may behave differently if you do.
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 databases of warrants or personal warrant-record information. We publish general guidance about where Chatham County warrant records are held and how to check them through the sheriff's warrant unit, the courts that issue warrants, and Georgia's local-office warrant process. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing we collect about visitors is assembled into consumer reports or records about third parties.
Third-Party Search Partners
Embedded search features are operated by third parties. Their privacy, retention, and sharing terms govern information entered there. Review the applicable provider policy before submitting any query.
Links to Other Websites
Throughout the site we link to sheriff's office pages, court portals, official court and agency systems, legal aid groups, and third-party search tools. Clicking any of those links takes you off our site. At that point, their privacy policy governs your visit. Read it before sharing any personal details.
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
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be available to:
- 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 administrative and technical safeguards are used for collected data. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, so a breach or unauthorized access cannot be ruled out.
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
The Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. ยงยง50-18-70 through 50-18-76, governs access to qualifying records held by Georgia public offices; it does not turn this private site into a government custodian. Other applicable privacy laws may allow you 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
