Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you enter a name or date of birth in an outside search tool displayed on the site, the request goes to that provider. The provider processes the query under its own terms. McKinley County Warrant Records does not host a court search or keep a warrant database.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you send an email, the message and reply details may be retained so the matter can be handled. Information is not sold, and it is not shared outside the operating team unless law requires disclosure.
Data We Gather Automatically
Server and analytics systems may receive technical information when a page loads, such as an IP address, browser and version, device type, operating system, referral source, page views, timestamps, and approximate time on a page.
- Browser and device details
- Pages visited and time spent
- Referring site, when supplied
- Technical timestamps and error data
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files saved by a browser. Analytics services may use them to measure page use and performance. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some functions may behave differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Keep the pages available and improve load speed
- Send an optional search request to the provider that operates the widget
- Measure which pages are useful
- Find and correct technical faults
- Support advertising and site operations
No Warrant Data on File
This site does not host, compile, maintain, or sell personal warrant records. It provides general information about New Mexico Case Lookup, the McKinley County Sheriff's Records Division, District Court, Gallup Magistrate Court, Gallup Municipal Court, and Gallup city records. Visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or a private person's warrant file.
Third-Party Search Partners
Search widgets are operated by outside companies. A query entered there is handled under the partner's privacy policy, retention rules, and sharing practices. Review those terms before submitting any personal information. An outside result is not an official McKinley County court confirmation.
Links to Other Websites
The site links to New Mexico courts, MCSO, Gallup offices, MVD, federal courts, and other official sources. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's policies apply. Advertising partners may also use their own systems to measure activity across sites.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal information is not sold. Depending on the service involved, information may be processed by:
- Search providers handling a query sent from the widget
- Analytics services measuring traffic
- Ad networks serving or measuring advertisements
- Government or law-enforcement bodies when a valid legal demand requires it
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable technical and administrative practices are used to protect information handled by the site. No internet service can promise perfect security, so a breach cannot be ruled out.
Users Under 18
The service is intended for adults. Personal information is not knowingly collected from a person under 18. If a minor's information is supplied, it can be removed when the operator learns of it.
Your Data Rights
New Mexico's Inspection of Public Records Act, NMSA 1978 Sections 14-2-1 through 14-2-12, governs access to public records held by public bodies. It does not require this private reference to create or hold a court warrant file. Subject to applicable law, a visitor may ask what personal information the operator has, request correction, ask for deletion, or object to certain processing.
- Request a copy of personal information held by the operator
- Ask that inaccurate information be corrected
- Request removal where retention is not required
- Ask about the service or provider receiving a submission
Updates to This Policy
The policy may be revised when the site's services or legal obligations change. The current version will appear here with a new date. Official court and agency privacy policies control their own systems.
Effective date: September 22, 2026
