Privacy Policy

This page lays out what data we collect when you visit our Santa Fe County, New Mexico court-records reference site, how we use it, and when it might be shared with others. Using any page on this website means you accept the practices described here.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

When you type a name, Santa Fe County location, or New Mexico case-related detail into one of the search tools on our site, that input goes straight to the third-party provider that runs the search. They process it and return results. We do not store or log the search terms you enter on our end.

Messages and Contact Submissions

If you send us an email or fill out a contact form, we keep that message so we can reply. Your message stays within our team. We will not share it with anyone outside our organization unless a legal obligation requires it under applicable law, including New Mexico or federal legal process.


Data We Gather Automatically

Every time a page on this site loads, our servers pick up some technical details about the visit:

  • The IP address assigned to your device
  • Which browser you are using and its version
  • Your device type and operating system
  • The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
  • The site that sent you here, if any
  • Timestamps for each page view

Cookies

We use cookies on this site. These are small files stored on your device that let us see how visitors use the site - which Santa Fe County records pages get the most traffic and where people tend to drop off. Your browser settings let you block cookies whenever you want. Some parts of the site may behave differently if you do.


What We Do With This Data

  • Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
  • Sending your search requests to the right partner service
  • Figuring out which pages people find useful and which need work
  • Tracking down and fixing technical issues
  • Showing ads that may line up with your interests

Links to Other Websites

Throughout the site we link to court portals, government agency pages, legal aid groups, and third-party search tools, including New Mexico Judiciary Case Lookup, court IPRA resources, Santa Fe County ClerkTrackWeb, Santa Fe County public-record portals, and Municipal Court resources. Clicking any of those links takes you off our site. At that point, their privacy policy governs your visit. Read it before sharing any personal details.

Certain advertising partners may track your activity across sites to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.


Who Might See Your Data

We do not sell personal data. Some information may end up with:

  • Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
  • Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
  • Ad networks that place ads on our pages
  • Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order or applicable New Mexico law requires it

How We Protect Your Data

We follow standard security practices to safeguard the data we collect. But nothing connected to the internet is bulletproof. We do what we can to keep your information secure, though we cannot promise a breach will never happen. Official New Mexico court, county, and law-enforcement portals maintain their own security practices outside our control.


Users Under 18

This site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. New Mexico court systems may restrict public access to juvenile and protected case records under court rules and statutes, and this private site does not override those limits.


Your Data Rights

  • Ask for a copy of what we have on file about you
  • Have us fix information that is wrong
  • Request that we erase your data
  • Opt out of certain kinds of data processing

These rights relate to data this private website controls. They do not change access rules for official Santa Fe County or New Mexico public records. New Mexico public-record requests are generally governed by the Inspection of Public Records Act, NMSA 1978, Sections 14-2-1 through 14-2-12, and court database use may also be subject to NMSA 1978, Section 14-3-15.1.


Updates to This Policy

We may change this privacy policy down the road. When we do, the updated version goes up on this page with a new effective date. Check back if you want to keep tabs on how we handle your information.
