Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider that operates that tool. The provider processes the entry and supplies its results. Jefferson County Court Docket does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email or other direct message may be kept long enough to respond and maintain the related correspondence. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Normal server and analytics functions may receive technical details when a page loads:
- The device's assigned IP address
- Browser type and version
- Operating system and device category
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- A referring website, when supplied
- The time of each request
Cookies and Analytics
Small files called cookies can help measure traffic, popular pages, and where visits end. Analytics providers may combine that activity into usage reports. Browser controls can block or remove cookies, though doing so may change how some site functions behave.
What We Do With This Data
Collected technical information may be used for these limited site operations:
- Operating the website and improving load performance
- Routing a submitted query to the selected search provider
- Understanding which pages are useful
- Diagnosing errors, abuse, or security problems
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Court-Record Data on File
Jefferson County Court Docket does not host, compile, sell, or maintain a database of personal case records or official court dockets. Its content describes how to reach Indiana MyCase, the Indiana Hearing Calendar, Jefferson Circuit Court, Jefferson Superior Court, and the Clerk of the Circuit and Superior Courts. Visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports, and the website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power search tools that may appear on content pages. Information submitted through a partner tool is governed by that company's privacy policy, retention practices, and sharing rules. Those practices are outside this site's control. Review the provider's terms and privacy notice before entering a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Indiana court systems, Jefferson County offices, legal-aid resources, or commercial search providers. Once a visitor follows an external link, the destination's privacy terms control. Review those terms before supplying personal information.
Advertising providers may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and tailor ads. Any such tracking occurs through their systems.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal information is not sold. Limited information may be provided to:
- A search partner that handles a query
- Analytics vendors measuring use and performance
- Advertising networks serving site advertisements
- Government or law-enforcement authorities acting under a valid legal demand
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, commonly used safeguards are applied to information under this site's control. No website or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure, so protection against every breach cannot be promised.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from a person under 18. If information from a minor is identified, a request may be made for its deletion.
Your Data Rights
The Indiana Access to Public Records Act, Indiana Code 5-14-3, and the Indiana Rules on Access to Court Records govern access to official public and judicial records. They do not make this private site's visitor information part of a Jefferson County court file. Subject to applicable law, a person may:
- Request a copy of personal information held about them
- Ask that inaccurate information be corrected
- Seek deletion of applicable personal data
- Opt out of certain processing where the law provides that choice
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as site practices or legal duties change. A revised policy becomes available here with its new effective date, so visitors should review this page periodically.
