Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or place entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside company that operates that feature. The provider processes the query and supplies its result. We do not keep or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email message may be retained long enough to answer and maintain the related correspondence. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Page requests can automatically provide standard technical and usage details:
- Page-view dates and times
- Device type and operating system
- Referring website, when one is available
- Browser name and version
- Viewed pages and time spent on them
- The device's assigned IP address
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They and analytics services help combine traffic information, such as popular pages and exit points. Browser controls can block cookies, although doing so may change how some features behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Sending a submitted search to the selected partner
- Finding and repairing technical faults
- Measuring which resources visitors use
- Operating pages reliably and efficiently
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
We do not build, store, or sell a database of personal criminal records. The published material explains how to reach Mifflin County police, court and jail custodians, Pennsylvania State Police PATCH, and the Pennsylvania State Police Megan's Law Public Website. Visitor information is not assembled into third-party dossiers or consumer reports, and this website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Independent companies supply the search boxes. Their privacy policies, retention periods, and sharing practices govern data submitted through those tools. Review the applicable provider policy before running a search because we do not control those choices.
Links to Other Websites
Links can lead to county offices, Pennsylvania agencies, court portals, legal resources, or independent tools. Once a visitor follows an outbound link, the destination's own privacy terms apply. Read them before providing personal information.
Advertising companies may use their systems to observe activity across websites for interest-based advertising. We do not operate that tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be available to:
- Analytics providers measuring traffic and performance
- Search partners processing a query you submit
- Advertising networks serving page advertisements
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal demand
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, standard safeguards protect the information we handle. No internet service can promise perfect security, so these measures cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
The service is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If such information is identified, a deletion request may be made.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary by residence and applicable law. Pennsylvania's Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, 73 P.S. §§ 201-1 through 201-9.3, governs deceptive consumer practices. The Pennsylvania Right-to-Know Law applies to public agencies, not to this private website, while 18 Pa.C.S. Chapter 91 controls government dissemination of criminal-history record information. Subject to applicable law, you may:
- Object to certain forms of processing
- Request deletion of data associated with you
- Seek correction of inaccurate information
- Ask for access to information held about you
Updates to This Policy
Revisions will be posted here and identified by a new effective date. Reviewing the current version is the best way to see how information practices may have changed.
Effective date: August 8, 2026
