Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you enter a name or a date of birth into a search box on this site, the query travels to the outside provider that runs that tool. The provider processes it and returns whatever it returns. We do not capture or log the terms you type.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email us, we keep the message so we can answer it. It stays with our own team. We will not hand it to anyone outside our organization unless the law compels us to.
Data We Gather Automatically
Each time a page loads, our servers record basic technical details about the visit:
- The IP address your device is using
- Your browser and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- Which pages you opened and how long each one stayed on screen
- The referring site, when there is one
- A timestamp for every page view
Cookies and Analytics
This site uses cookies, which are small files written to your device. They show us how visitors move through the site, including which pages draw the most traffic and where readers stop. Analytics services help us roll that traffic data into totals. Your browser can block cookies at any time, and a few parts of the site may behave differently if you do.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site online and loading quickly
- Passing your search requests to the partner service that handles them
- Learning which pages help readers and which ones need work
- Finding and repairing technical problems
- Displaying advertising that may relate to your interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, compile, maintain, or sell any database of warrants or warrant-record information. We publish general guidance about where Lincoln Parish warrant records are kept and how to check them through the Lincoln Parish Clerk of Court, the Third Judicial District Court, the sheriff's office, and the lower courts. 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 files about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Search boxes here are operated by outside companies. Anything you type into one of those tools is processed under that partner's privacy policy rather than this one. Those providers decide how long they keep data and who they share it with, and we have no control over either. Read the partner's policy before you submit a search.
Links to Other Websites
We link out to clerk and sheriff pages, court sites, state agencies, legal aid organizations, and outside search tools across the site. Following one of those links takes you off this site, and the destination's privacy policy then governs your visit. Read it before you share personal details.
Some advertising partners may track activity across sites to target ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not on ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Limited information may reach:
- Search partners that handle the queries you run here
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
- Advertising networks that place ads on our pages
- Law enforcement or government offices when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
We use standard security practices to protect what we collect. No internet service can promise perfect safety, and we will not pretend otherwise. We take reasonable steps, and a breach can never be ruled out entirely.
Users Under 18
This site is written for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has sent data to us, contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Your Data Rights
State law may add rights over your data depending on where you live. Louisiana's Public Records Law, La. R.S. Title 44, governs records held by government offices rather than a private site like this one, and it does not create a right to inspect our internal files. Even so, you may always ask us to do the following:
- Show you a copy of what we hold about you
- Correct information that is wrong
- Delete your data
- Opt out of certain kinds of processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as the site changes. When that happens, the new version appears on this page with a fresh effective date. Check back here to see how we handle visitor information.
Effective date: September 15, 2026
