Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you enter a name or a date of birth into a search box on this site, that entry travels to the outside company that operates the search. The partner processes the query and returns the results. We do not keep a copy of what you typed.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email this site, we retain the message so that we can write back. It stays with our team. We do not pass it to anyone outside our organization unless a legal obligation forces us to.
Data We Gather Automatically
Each time a page here loads, our servers pick up a few technical details about the visit:
- The browser you use and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The IP address your device was assigned
- The pages you opened and how long you stayed on each
- Timestamps for each page view
- The site that sent you here, if one did
Cookies and Analytics
This site uses cookies, which are small files your device stores so we can see how visitors move through the pages. Analytics services help us total that traffic into reportable numbers. You can block cookies in your browser settings whenever you choose, though parts of the site may behave differently if you do.
What We Do With This Data
- Sending your search request to the partner that runs it
- Keeping the site online and loading quickly
- Learning which pages help readers and which need work
- Finding and repairing technical faults
- Serving advertising that may reflect your interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not build, host, compile, or sell any database of warrants or personal warrant records. It publishes general guidance about where St. Clair County warrant records are kept and how to reach the 72nd District Court, the County Clerk, the Friend of the Court, and the sheriff.
We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing we gather about visitors is turned into a consumer report or a file about any third party.
Third-Party Search Partners
Search boxes on this site are operated by outside companies. Whatever you enter there is handled under that company's privacy policy rather than this one. Those partners set their own retention and sharing rules, and we have no say over them. Read the partner's policy before you submit a query.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to court, county, and state pages so readers can reach the office that holds a record. Following one of those links takes you to a site we do not run. Its privacy policy governs what happens there, and we are not responsible for how another site treats your information.
Who Might See Your Data
A limited set of providers can see parts of what this site collects, and only for the reasons listed here:
- Search partners that handle the queries you run
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
- Advertising networks that place ads on our pages
- Law enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order
How We Protect Your Data
We use standard security practices to protect the data we hold. No system connected to the internet is airtight, though. We take reasonable steps to keep your information safe, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
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 us data, contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Your Data Rights
Michigan's open-records law, the Freedom of Information Act at MCL 15.231, applies to records held by public bodies, not to a private site like this one. Michigan court files are governed separately by Michigan Court Rule 8.119. Even so, you may ask us to:
- Show you a copy of anything we hold about you
- Correct information that is wrong
- Delete your data
- Stop certain kinds of processing
Send a request through our contact page and we will respond.
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this privacy policy later. When that happens, the new version appears on this page with an updated effective date. Check back if you want to follow how your information is handled.
Effective date: September 15, 2026
