Information You Send
Search Terms
When you type a name, location or similar term into a search tool on this site, that query may be sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. This site does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may receive routine technical information when a page loads.
- Your IP address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on those pages.
- The referring website, when one is passed by your browser.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand site usage and improve performance. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, though some search, analytics or advertising features may behave differently if cookies are disabled.
How the Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, readable and reasonably fast.
- To route search requests to the correct outside search provider.
- To understand which Sherburne County inmate, jail, court and facility pages visitors use most.
- To detect errors, broken links and technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor's interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to official jail rosters, sheriff pages, Minnesota Department of Corrections resources, Minnesota court portals, BOP, ICE ODLS, VINELink and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the destination website controls how your information is handled.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites for interest-based advertising. That tracking occurs through their platforms, not through records stored by this site.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold. It may be available to limited parties that help operate or legally protect the site.

- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement, court or government authorities when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled by the site. No internet-connected website, server or third-party tool can be guaranteed fully secure, so this notice does not promise breach-proof protection.
