Data You Provide
Search Terms
When a name, county, or other term is typed into a sponsored search tool, that query may be sent to the third-party provider that runs the tool. This site does not control that provider's results, pricing, account setup, or privacy rules.
Contact Messages
If you send a message, the message may include your name, email address, phone number, and the text you choose to provide. Those details are used to read and respond to the message.
Automatic Information
Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical data when pages load. That can include IP address, browser and version, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, timestamps, and approximate location. Cookies and similar tools may help measure traffic, remember settings, prevent abuse, and support ads or analytics. Browser settings can block some cookies, although parts of the site may work differently.
How Data Is Used
Information may be used to operate the site, respond to questions, route searches to partner services, understand which Goodhue County jail or court pages are useful, fix technical issues, protect the site, and show advertising. Public-record citations on the site may reference Minnesota law, including Minn. Stat. 13.03 and Minn. Stat. 13.82, but official records remain with the government office that created them.
Who May See Data
Personal information is not sold as a standalone customer list. It may be shared with search partners that process queries, analytics services, ad networks, hosting and security vendors, or other service providers used to run the site. Information may also be disclosed to law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid legal order.
Other Websites
Links may lead to Goodhue County, Minnesota courts, Minnesota DOC, BOP, ICE, app stores, or private search providers. Once you leave this site, the other site's own privacy policy and terms control.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used, but no internet-connected system can be promised as breach proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive information unless it is needed for the specific request.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, a parent or guardian may request deletion.
Your Choices
You may avoid sponsored search tools, decline to send contact messages, and adjust browser cookie settings. Depending on your location, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or limits on certain personal information.
Policy Updates
This privacy notice may change as the site, partners, or legal requirements change. Updated terms apply when posted here.
