Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or a date of birth into a search tool on this site, the entry goes straight to the outside provider that runs the search. That provider processes the input and returns the results. The search terms are not stored or logged on this end.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email this site, the message is kept so a reply can be sent. It stays with the people who run the site. It is not shared with anyone outside the organization unless the law requires it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Each time a page here loads, the servers record a few technical details about the visit:
- The browser you are using and its version
- The device type and operating system
- The IP address assigned to your device
- The pages you opened and how long each stayed on screen
- Timestamps for every page view
- The site that referred you here, when there is one
Cookies and Analytics
This site uses cookies, which are small files placed on your device. They show how visitors move through the site, including which pages draw the most traffic and where people tend to leave. Analytics services help roll that activity into aggregate numbers. Your browser settings can block cookies at any time, though some parts of the site may act differently if you do.
What We Do With This Data
- Sending each search request to the right partner service
- Keeping the site online and loading quickly
- Learning which pages are useful and which 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, build, sell, or maintain any database of warrants or personal warrant records. It publishes general guidance about where Lafayette Parish warrant records are held and how to check them through the sheriff's warrant division, the courts that issue warrants, and the clerk of court. The site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and nothing it collects about visitors is assembled into consumer reports or files about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
The search boxes on this site are operated by outside companies. Whatever you type into one of them is handled under that partner's own privacy policy rather than this one. Those partners set their own retention and sharing rules, and this site does not control them. Read the partner's policy before you submit a search.
Links to Other Websites
Pages here link out to sheriff's office sites, court portals, state agencies, legal aid offices, and commercial search tools. Following any of those links takes you away from this site, and the destination's privacy policy then governs the visit. Review it before sharing personal details.
Some advertising partners may track activity across sites to deliver targeted ads. That tracking happens on their systems, not this one.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold here. A limited set of information may reach:
- Search partners that handle the queries you run
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
- Advertising networks that place ads on these pages
- Law enforcement or a government body when a valid legal order requires disclosure
How We Protect Your Data
Standard security practices are used to protect the data this site collects. No internet service can promise perfect safety, however. Reasonable steps are taken to keep information secure, but a breach can never be ruled out entirely.
Users Under 18
This site is written for adults. Personal information from anyone under 18 is not knowingly collected. If you believe a minor has sent data to this site, say so and it will be deleted promptly.
Your Data Rights
Rights over personal data depend on where you live. Louisiana's access law for government records is the Louisiana Public Records Law, La. R.S. 44:1 et seq., which governs records held by public bodies rather than by a private website. Regardless of statute, anyone can ask this site to:
- Provide a copy of what is held about you
- Correct information that is wrong
- Delete your data
- Stop certain kinds of processing
Updates to This Policy
This privacy policy may change as the site develops. Any revision appears on this page with a new effective date. Return here to see how visitor information is handled.
