About this document
Two-page 'Accurint Virtual Crime Center/Accurint Crime Analysis/LexisNexis Community Crime Map Addendum', form code ADDM_ AVCC/ACA/CCM (Q3.17.v1), executed March 11, 2019 by then-Sheriff Tim Leslie for the Dakota County Sheriff's Office, ORI MN0190000. Released Oct 29, 2026 by Data Privacy Officer Jerod Rauk under the MGDPA, copy fees waived. This is the standard contributory form: Sec I.2 obligates the Sheriff's Office to contribute public safety information in exchange for PSDEX access; Sec I.4.a requires submissions 'with reasonable promptness and consistency'; Sec II.1 grants LexisNexis a paid up, irrevocable, worldwide license to distribute the contributions to PSDEX customers 'for use in PSDEX and all successor databases and/or information services provided by LN'. Sec II.5 says a de-identified subset will be public through Community Crime Map 'unless otherwise indicated'; this 2017 form has no initials opt-out line for that subset (added in later Q3.21.v1 forms). The submissions contact (Sec I.4.e) is the Sheriff himself, sheriff@co.dakota.mn.us. Part 2 of the same request, AVCC audit logs of outside agencies querying DCSO data from 12/1/2025 on: the county 'maintains no responsive data'.
