Information You Submit
A name, location, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. This site does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider may process the query under its separate privacy terms, so review those terms before submitting information.
If you send an email or contact message, we keep the message and the contact details needed to respond. A message is not shared outside the organization unless that is needed to answer the request, operate the service, or comply with a valid legal requirement.
Technical Visit Data
Standard web systems may automatically record limited technical details when a page loads. This information helps operate, secure, and understand the site.
- Internet Protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- Referring website, when supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookies and similar browser storage may help measure how visitors use the pages or support advertising. You can block or remove cookies in your browser. Some site or partner features may then work differently.
How Information Is Used
Collected information is used only for ordinary site and communication purposes.
- Deliver pages and maintain performance
- Send a submitted query to the selected search provider
- Learn which Delta County record topics visitors use
- Detect errors, misuse, and technical problems
- Respond to messages and privacy requests
- Support advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Websites Beyond Our Control
Pages link to the Delta County Sheriff and FOIA portal, Michigan corrections and court services, federal locators, and third-party search providers. Once you follow an outside link, that operator's privacy policy and security practices govern the visit. We do not control those systems.
Advertising companies may use their own cookies or identifiers to measure ads and activity across websites. That collection occurs through their systems, not through a Delta County government record held here.
Who May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be processed by service providers whose role requires it.
- Search partners that receive the queries sent to their tools
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and page use
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
- Hosting, security, and communication providers
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order
Security Has Limits
Reasonable administrative and technical practices are used to protect information in our control. No internet service, email system, browser transmission, or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure. We therefore cannot promise that a breach, loss, or unauthorized access will never occur.
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 sent personal data may use the Contact Us page to request review and deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify a request, you may ask about personal information held directly by this site.
- Request a copy of available personal data
- Ask that inaccurate personal data be corrected
- Request deletion of information we control
- Object to or opt out of certain processing where available
These requests do not reach records held by Delta County, MDOC, courts, or a search partner. Contact that separate custodian or provider for information in its system.
Changes to This Notice
This notice may be revised as site practices, providers, or legal duties change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date. Continued use after publication is subject to the revised notice.
