Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name, a case number, or a date of birth into a search box on this site, that input goes straight to the third-party provider operating the tool. The provider processes the request and returns a result. Nothing you type into those boxes is stored or logged on our side.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email us, we keep the message so we can answer it. Your note stays with our team, and we do not pass it to anyone outside the organization unless a legal obligation forces us to.
Data We Gather Automatically
Each page load sends our servers a small set of technical details about the visit:
- The pages you opened and the time spent on each one
- The browser you used and its version number
- The device type and operating system on your end
- Timestamps for every page view
- The address of the site that referred you, when one did
- The IP address assigned to your connection
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 aggregate that traffic for us, showing which pages hold attention and where readers leave. You can block cookies in your browser settings at any time, and some parts of the site may behave differently when you do.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site online, stable, and quick to load
- Passing your search request to the partner service that handles it
- Learning which pages help readers and which ones need another pass
- Diagnosing and repairing technical problems
- Showing advertising that may match your interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, build, compile, or sell any database of warrants or personal warrant information. What it publishes is general guidance about where Prince George's County warrant records sit and how to check them through the Sheriff's Office, the Maryland courts, and the state's public case portal. This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing collected about visitors is assembled into a consumer report or a file about a third party.
Third-Party Search Partners
Third-party companies operate the search boxes on this site. Anything you submit to one of those tools is handled under that partner's privacy policy, not this one, and the partner decides how long to keep it and who else may see it. Review the partner's policy before you type anything into a search field.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to sheriff's office pages, Maryland court portals, legal aid organizations, and outside search services. Following one of those links takes you off this site, and the destination's privacy policy governs from that point. Read it before you share personal details.
Advertising partners may also track activity across websites to place targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Some information can reach outside parties in these situations:
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
- Search partners that process the queries you run here
- Ad networks that serve advertising on these pages
- Government or law enforcement bodies responding to a valid legal order
How We Protect Your Data
We follow ordinary security practice to protect what we collect. No website connected to the internet can promise perfect safety, and we will not pretend otherwise. We take reasonable steps to keep information secure and cannot guarantee 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 data to us, contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Your Data Rights
Depending on where you live, state privacy and consumer-protection law may give you rights over the information a website holds about you. Maryland's public-records framework, the Maryland Public Information Act at General Provisions § 4-101, governs requests made to state and local agencies, and it is the route this site points readers toward when they want an official record. For the limited data this site holds, you can ask us to:
- Correct information that is inaccurate
- Provide a copy of what we hold about you
- Opt out of certain kinds of processing
- Delete your data
Updates to This Policy
This policy may change as the site changes. A revised version appears on this page with a new effective date, so check back if you want to follow how information is handled here.
Effective date: September 15, 2026
