Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information that may be handled when someone visits Macon County Recent Arrests, uses an outside search tool, or sends a message. It also explains the limited ways that data may be shared and the choices available to visitors.

Information You Provide

A query entered in a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates that tool and is governed by its policy. If you send a message, the submitted name, email address, message, and any details you choose to include may be retained to answer it. Do not send sensitive identifiers or confidential records.


Technical Data and Cookies

Servers and service providers may automatically record an IP address, browser and version, device and operating system, pages viewed, time spent, referring page, and timestamps. Cookies and similar technology may help measure site use. Browser controls can reject cookies, though some functions may then work differently.


How Information Is Used

  • Operate the site and improve its speed.
  • Send search requests to the selected outside provider.
  • Understand which pages visitors find useful.
  • Detect and repair technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may be interest-based.

External Websites and Advertising

Links may lead to sheriff, court, corrections, booking-report, government, and commercial search services. Once you leave, the destination’s privacy terms control. Advertising partners may measure activity across websites on their own systems.


When Data May Be Shared

Personal information is not sold. It may be available to search partners processing a query, analytics providers, advertising networks, or law-enforcement and government authorities responding to a valid legal order. A Missouri Sunshine Law request under Chapter 610 concerns records held by a public body; this private site is not the Macon County records custodian.


Security Practices

Reasonable, commonly used safeguards are applied. No internet service, transmission method, or storage system can be promised to be fully secure or breach-proof.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian may use the Contact Us page to request deletion of information a minor submitted.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask what personal information this site holds about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate submitted information.
  • Request deletion where applicable.
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing where the law provides that choice.

Changes to This Notice

This notice may be revised as site practices or legal requirements change. A revised version takes effect when posted here with its new effective date.
