Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or place entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. Antelope County Criminal History does not keep or record those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be retained for the time needed to respond. Messages remain within the operating team unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, the site's systems may automatically receive basic technical information about that visit:
- Page-view dates, times, and duration
- Device category and operating system
- Internet Protocol address
- Referring website, when one is supplied
- Browser type and version
- Pages viewed during the visit
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device. They and analytics services help combine traffic information, such as which Antelope County resource pages receive visits and where sessions end. A browser can reject or remove cookies, although blocking them may change how some features work.
What We Do With This Data
- Diagnosing faults and other technical problems
- Routing a search request to the selected outside service
- Measuring which pages are useful or need revision
- Operating the site and maintaining reasonable load speed
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Criminal-Record Data on File
Antelope County Criminal History does not build, keep, or sell a database of personal criminal records. Its content identifies request routes for the Antelope County Sheriff's Office, County Court, District Court, Nebraska State Patrol Criminal Identification Division, and Nebraska Sex Offender Registry. The site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or third-party criminal-history profiles.
Third-Party Search Partners
Independent companies operate the search boxes shown on some pages. Their privacy terms, not this policy, govern information submitted to those tools. Each company chooses its own retention and disclosure practices. Read the applicable provider policy before running a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Antelope County offices, Nebraska courts and agencies, legal-aid resources, or outside search providers. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination's privacy rules apply. Review them before providing personal information.
Advertising services may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select targeted ads. That processing is controlled by those services.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be available to:
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal order
- Outside search providers that process a query
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for collected data. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, so the site cannot promise that unauthorized access or a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If data from a minor is identified, a deletion request may be made through the site's contact channel.
Your Data Rights
Rights can vary with the law that applies to a visitor. Nebraska's Public Records Act, Neb. Rev. Stat. §§84-712 through 84-712.09, governs access to records held by public bodies. Nebraska's criminal-history dissemination rule, Neb. Rev. Stat. §29-3523, controls when specified criminal-history information becomes nonpublic. Those laws govern official records and do not turn this private site into a government custodian. Subject to applicable law, you may:
- Ask to opt out of certain processing
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information
- Seek deletion of personal data held by the site
- Request a copy of personal information held about you
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised. A changed version will be posted here and will carry a new effective date so visitors can review the current practices.
Effective date: July 31, 2026
