Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
Search fields on this site are operated by outside providers. Information entered there, such as a name or date of birth, is sent to that provider for processing and results. We do not keep a separate log of those search terms on our own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
We retain emails or other messages sent to us so our team can respond. We keep them within the organization and disclose them outside it only when a legal duty requires disclosure.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a browser requests a page, our servers automatically record technical information about that visit, which may include:
- The date and time of each page request
- Your device category and operating system
- The browser and its version
- The page visited and the time spent there
- The referring site, when available
- The IP address assigned to your device
Cookies and Analytics
This site uses cookies, small files saved by your browser, to understand how visitors move through its pages, including which pages draw visits and where sessions end. Analytics services combine this information into traffic reports. You can block cookies in your browser settings, although some site features may then work differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Diagnosing faults and improving site performance
- Learning which pages visitors use and where updates may help
- Passing search entries to the provider that runs the selected tool
- Keeping the site available and responsive
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitors’ interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not keep, assemble, or sell a warrant database or personal warrant files. Virginia’s public case information is separate from restricted VCIN and NCIC records; actual court and service records remain with the relevant court clerk and the sheriff or police agency responsible for the process. The Virginia Freedom of Information Act (VFOIA), Va. Code §§ 2.2-3700 et seq., governs access to existing public-body records subject to exemptions, while court records follow applicable court statutes and rules. This private site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor information is not compiled into reports about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside providers run the search boxes on this site. Their privacy notices, rather than this policy, cover information you submit to those tools. Each provider chooses its own retention and sharing practices, which we do not control; review the provider’s policy before using a search field.
Links to Other Websites
Links on this site lead to Virginia court and law-enforcement resources, legal-aid organizations, and third-party search services. Once you leave our pages, the destination’s privacy terms apply. Read them before providing personal information.
Some advertising partners may also track browsing across different sites for ad targeting. That activity is handled on the partners’ systems.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared with these service providers or authorities:
- Government agencies or law enforcement when a valid legal order requires it
- Advertising networks that serve ads on the site
- Analytics services used to measure traffic and site performance
- Search providers that process entries submitted through their tools
How We Protect Your Data
We use customary safeguards to protect information collected through the site. No online system is entirely secure, however, so we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access or a data breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Your Data Rights
Where it applies, Virginia’s Consumer Data Protection Act (Va. Code §§ 59.1-575 et seq.) may provide consumer rights concerning personal data. Depending on the law’s scope and your circumstances, those rights can include the ability to:
- Request access to personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your personal data
- Opt out of certain data processing, where the law provides that right
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this policy from time to time. A revision takes effect when we post it here with an updated effective date. Review this page for the current description of our practices.
Effective date: September 24, 2026
