Information You Submit
A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. We do not keep or log those search terms on our own systems. The provider’s policy governs its handling once the query is submitted.
If you send an email or contact message, we keep the supplied contact details and message long enough to respond and manage the exchange. We do not share that correspondence outside the organization unless law requires it.
Automatic Technical Data

- Referring page, when provided
- Date and time of the request
Cookies may help measure site use and remember basic preferences. Browser controls can block or delete them, though some functions may then work differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports normal operation and service improvement.
- Deliver pages and maintain performance

- Measure which resources visitors use
- Detect and correct technical problems
- Present advertising that may reflect interests
Outside Websites and Advertising
Links may lead to the Crawford County Sheriff, Missouri corrections pages, courts, federal locators, and third-party search tools. Their privacy terms apply after a visitor leaves this site. We do not control their collection or security practices.
Advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and select ads. That tracking occurs through the partner’s systems, not a Crawford County government database.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be available to parties that perform a needed function.
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure traffic
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Is Best Effort
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used for information under our control. No internet service, email exchange, or connected storage system can be guaranteed breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive details that are not needed for the request.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request review and deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify the request, a visitor may ask to:
- Receive a copy of personal data we hold
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Delete information that no longer must be kept
- Opt out of processing where that choice applies
These rights concern data held by this private site. Official Crawford County, MODOC, court, and federal records remain governed by the originating agency and applicable Missouri law.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as services or legal duties change. A new version becomes effective when posted here with a new effective date. Visitors should review this page periodically.
