Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name or location into one of the search tools on our site, that input goes straight to the third-party provider that runs the search. They process it and return results. We do not store or log the search terms you enter on our end.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you send us an email or fill out a contact form, we keep that message so we can reply. Your message stays within our team. We will not share it with anyone outside our organization unless a legal obligation requires it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Every time a page on this site loads, our servers pick up some technical details about the visit:
- 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
We use cookies on this site. These are small files stored on your device that help us understand which pages receive traffic and how visitors use them. Your browser settings may allow you to block cookies. Some parts of the site may work differently if cookies are disabled.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
- Sending your search requests to the right partner service
- 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
Links to Other Websites
Throughout the site we link to Kansas court portals, Morton County government pages, legal aid groups, and third-party search tools. Clicking any of those links takes you off our site. At that point, their privacy policy governs your visit. Read it before sharing any personal details.
Certain advertising partners may track your activity across sites to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.
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, including orders issued under Kansas or federal law
How We Protect Your Data
We follow standard security practices to safeguard the data we collect. No internet-connected service can guarantee absolute security. We work to protect your information, but we cannot promise that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
This site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has shared data with us, contact us so the information can be reviewed and removed when appropriate.
Your Data Rights
- Ask for a copy of what we have on file about you; Kansas public agency records follow the Kansas Open Records Act, including K.S.A. 45-218 through 45-221, but those statutes do not turn this private site into a government records custodian
- Have us fix information that is wrong
- Request that we erase your data
- Opt out of certain kinds of data processing
Updates to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, the revised version will appear on this page with a new effective date.
