Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
Information entered in a search tool, such as a name or birth date, is sent directly to the outside provider that operates that feature. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. Fayette County Warrant Records does not keep or record those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email or contact submission may be retained as needed to answer it. Such correspondence is kept within the operating team and is not disclosed outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a visitor loads a page, the servers may automatically receive routine technical and usage details, including:
- Page-view dates and times
- The referring website, when one is reported
- Pages opened and approximate time spent on them
- Device category and operating system
- Browser name and version
- The device's assigned IP address
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They and analytics services help measure aggregate traffic, popular pages, and points where visits end. A browser can be configured to reject cookies, although disabling them may change how some website functions behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Routing a submitted search to the appropriate partner
- Diagnosing errors and other technical problems
- Measuring which resources are useful and which need improvement
- Maintaining site availability, speed, and operation
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Warrant Data on File
Fayette County Warrant Records does not host, compile, maintain, or sell a database of warrants or personal warrant information. It provides general directions to records held by the Fayette County Clerk, Fayette Circuit Court, Fayette Superior Court, and Sheriff/Jail, plus Indiana MyCase as a case-search resource. Indiana has no single public statewide warrant database. Visitor information is not assembled into third-party records or consumer reports, and the website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes. Data submitted there is governed by the provider's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each provider controls its own retention, processing, and disclosure practices. Visitors should read those terms before sending a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the Fayette County government, the county courts and Clerk, Indiana MyCase, legal-aid resources, or outside search services. Once a visitor follows one, the destination's privacy rules apply. Review them before providing personal information.
Some advertising providers may use activity across websites to select ads. Any such cross-site tracking occurs through the provider's systems and policies.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal information is not sold. It may be available to the following parties when needed for the stated function:
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal order
- Advertising networks that place ads on the pages
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
- Search partners that process a query submitted to their tools
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, commonly used security measures are applied to information collected through the website. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed completely secure, so absolute protection from a breach cannot be promised.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If information from a minor is identified, a request may be made to have it deleted promptly.
Your Data Rights
Applicable privacy and consumer-protection laws may provide rights concerning personal information. The Indiana Access to Public Records Act (APRA), Indiana Code § 5-14-3, governs access to records held by public agencies; it does not turn data held by this private website into a Fayette County public record. Subject to applicable law, a visitor may:
- Object to certain forms of processing
- Request deletion of personal information
- Ask that inaccurate information be corrected
- Request a copy of personal information kept about them
Updates to This Policy
This privacy policy may be revised. A replacement becomes available here with an updated effective date, so visitors may return to review current data practices.
Effective date: September 12, 2026
