1Introduction

MoCaseLookup (“we”, “us”, or “our”) operates the website MoCaseLookup.com (the “Website”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect from visitors, how we use it, who we share it with, and your rights regarding your personal information.

By using our Website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please do not use our Website.

We keep this policy in simple language so that anyone can understand it — no legal jargon, no hidden clauses.

2Who We Are

MoCaseLookup is operated as an individual sole proprietorship by Jawad Ahmed. Our website provides educational content about Missouri Case.net and public court records access.

Operating Locations

Our Website targets users in the United States, particularly Missouri residents. However, we want to be transparent that our operations involve two countries:

  • United States: Our primary target audience and the focus of our content
  • Pakistan: Where the website owner (Jawad Ahmed) is based and where day-to-day website operations are managed

This means data you submit to our Website may be accessed or processed from either country. We take reasonable measures to protect your information regardless of where it is stored or accessed.

5Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to remember information about your visit. We use two types of cookies:

5.1 Essential Cookies

These are needed for the Website to function properly. They cannot be disabled through our Website.

6Third-Party Services We Use

We rely on several third-party services to operate the Website. Each service has its own privacy policy that governs how they handle your data. Here is a full list:

6.1 Google Analytics

Purpose: To understand visitor behavior and improve the Website.
Data collected: Anonymized IP address, browser type, pages visited, time on site, general location.
Opt-out: You can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

6.2 Google Search Console

6.3 Bing Webmaster Tools

Purpose: Similar to Google Search Console, but for Bing search results. Provides aggregated search data only.

6.4 YouTube (Embedded Videos)

Our Website embeds videos hosted on YouTube. When you view a page with an embedded YouTube video, YouTube may collect information about you, including your IP address, viewing history, and interactions with the video.

We use YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com) where possible to reduce tracking.

6.5 Hostinger (Web Hosting)

Purpose: Hostinger hosts our Website. When you visit our Website, Hostinger’s servers automatically log basic information such as IP address, browser type, and access times for security and performance purposes.

7International Data Transfer

Because we operate from both the United States and Pakistan, your information may be transferred to and processed in either country. Data protection laws in Pakistan may differ from those in the United States or your country of residence.

By using our Website and submitting information to us, you acknowledge and consent to this international transfer of your data.

We take reasonable steps to ensure your information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy, regardless of where it is stored or processed.

8How Long We Keep Your Data

We keep your information only for as long as we need it, then it is deleted.

Analytics Data

Analytics data collected through Google Analytics is retained for 14 months, which is the default retention period. After this period, the data is automatically deleted from Google Analytics servers.
