Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
Information entered in an embedded or linked search tool is sent to the provider operating that tool for processing. We do not maintain a Cherokee County warrant database and do not use search inputs to create warrant files. The provider's policy explains how it handles the information it receives.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you send a message through a contact channel, we may retain its contents and contact details long enough to respond, manage the request, and keep ordinary business records. We disclose it outside the site only when needed to operate that channel or when law requires disclosure.
Data We Gather Automatically
Like most websites, a server or analytics service may record technical details when a page loads. Depending on the service configuration, those details can include:
- The IP address assigned to your device
- Which browser you are using and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
- The site that sent you here, if any
- Timestamps for each page view
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies and similar storage can help a website remember settings or measure general traffic. Browser controls let you block or remove cookies; some site features or partner services may then behave differently. The services that place cookies describe their own practices in their privacy notices.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
- Opening a search service selected by a visitor
- Figuring out which pages people find useful and which need work
- Tracking down and fixing technical issues
- Showing ads that may line up with your interests
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, maintain, compile, or sell Cherokee County warrant records or a database of personal warrant information. Public records remain with the office or court responsible for them, including the Sheriff's Office, Clerk of Court, and issuing magistrate or municipal court. Visitor information described by this policy is not assembled into consumer reports. This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Search boxes on this site are powered by outside companies. Anything you enter into those tools is processed under the partner's own privacy policy, not this one. Those partners set their own data-retention and sharing practices, and we do not control them. Review the partner's policy before submitting a search.
Links to Other Websites
Links to the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office, court resources, state services, legal aid, and commercial search providers lead to sites outside our control. Their privacy notices govern what happens after a visitor follows a link. Review those terms before sharing personal information.
Advertising or analytics partners may use their own technologies to measure activity or select ads. Those practices are controlled by the partner.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Some information may end up with:
- Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
- Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
- Ad networks that place ads on our pages
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
We use reasonable safeguards for information handled through this site, but no internet transmission or storage method is guaranteed secure. We cannot promise that unauthorized access or a service failure will never occur.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults and is not designed to collect information from children under 18. If you believe a minor has sent personal information through a site contact channel, contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.
Your Data Rights
South Carolina's Freedom of Information Act governs access to public-body records; it does not turn this privately operated website into the custodian of Cherokee County court or sheriff files. For records held by a public office, submit a request to that office under its published process. For visitor information handled here, you may ask what contact information we retain, request correction, or ask us to delete a message when retention is not required. We will review such requests and explain any limits.
- Ask whether we retain a message or contact detail you submitted
- Request correction of contact information that is inaccurate
- Ask us to delete a message when no retention need applies
- Adjust cookie or advertising settings through your browser and the partner's tools
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this policy as the site or its services change. The revised text will appear on this page and apply from its posted date. Review it periodically if you continue using the site.
