Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy rules apply to the data it receives.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share that message outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Automatic Technical Information
Standard web systems may record basic technical details when a page loads. Those details can include:
- Your Internet Protocol address.
- Your browser type and version.
- Your device category and operating system.
- The pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is supplied.
- The date and time of each request.
Cookie Use
Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site. You may block or remove them through browser settings, though some site or partner features may then work differently.
Reasons We Use Data
- Operate the site and improve its speed.
- Send search requests to the selected partner service.
- Measure which pages visitors find useful.
- Diagnose faults and repair technical problems.
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Privacy Beyond This Site
Links may lead to the City Justice Center locator, SLMPD and City records portals, Missouri corrections or court pages, federal locators, and outside search services. After you follow a link, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.
Some advertising partners may use their own technology to recognize activity across websites and select ads. That tracking occurs on their systems, not as a St. Louis City government process.
When Information Is Shared
We do not sell personal information. Data may still be received by these parties for the stated functions:
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver ads.
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order.
Security Measures and Limits
We use customary safeguards suited to a public information website. No internet-connected service is fully secure, however, so we cannot promise that data will never be lost, intercepted, or accessed without permission.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under age 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may contact us to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
- Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Ask us to erase eligible information.
- Object to or opt out of certain processing where applicable.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this privacy notice as the site or its services change. A revised notice takes effect when posted here with its new effective date.
