Information Submitted by Visitors
Search Queries
A name, location, or similar query entered into a search tool is sent to the provider that operates that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or a message through a contact channel, the information supplied may be retained to respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.
Technical Information and Cookies
Like many websites, this site may receive technical data when a page is requested. That information helps operate the site, understand basic use patterns, and identify performance or security problems.
- Internet Protocol address

- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- Referring website, when one is provided

Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand how visitors use the site. A browser can be set to limit or block cookies, though some functions may then work differently.
How Information Is Used
Information collected through normal site operation may be used for practical service and maintenance purposes.
- Operate and improve the site's reliability and speed
- Route a search request to the provider selected for that tool
- Learn which reference pages readers use
- Diagnose and correct technical problems
- Display advertising that may be based on general interests
External Websites and Advertising
This site links to public offices, court systems, state and federal locators, archives, and outside search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination's own privacy rules govern the visit. When a page refers to an official Oklahoma public-record request, the governing access framework is the Oklahoma Open Records Act, including Title 51 ยง24A.5, rather than this site's privacy notice.
Advertising partners may collect information about activity across websites in their own systems to provide interest-based advertising. This site does not control those partners' independent collection practices.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold. It may be disclosed only to the limited categories of recipients needed to operate the site or when a lawful obligation requires it.
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers used to understand site operation
- Advertising networks that serve advertisements
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies responding to a valid legal order
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information. No internet-connected system can guarantee complete security, so this site cannot promise that a transmission or stored record will never be accessed, altered, or lost.
Visitors Under 18
