Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query entered in a search tool is transmitted directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the request and supplies its results. Scott County Court Docket does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email or contact submission may be retained long enough to respond and maintain the exchange. It remains within the operating team unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, servers may automatically receive these technical details:
- 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 and Analytics
Cookies are small device files used to understand traffic patterns, including popular pages and common exit points. Analytics providers combine that usage information. A browser can block cookies, though some functions may then behave differently.
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
No Court-Record Data on File
Scott County Court Docket does not host, maintain, compile, or sell a database of personal case records or court dockets. It publishes general directions to MyCase, Scott Circuit and Superior Courts, and the Scott County Clerk. Visitor information is not assembled into third-party records or consumer reports, and this resource is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by that provider’s privacy policy, retention terms, and sharing rules, not this policy. Review those terms before running a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the Scott County Clerk, Indiana courts, MyCase, legal-aid resources, or outside search services. Once a visitor leaves this domain, the destination’s privacy terms control. Review them before providing personal information.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to track activity across websites for targeted ads.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be disclosed to:
- 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 or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices protect collected information, but no internet system can guarantee complete safety or prevent every breach.
Users Under 18
This resource is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A verified report of a minor’s submission will be addressed by deleting that data.
Your Data Rights
Applicable Indiana and other privacy or consumer-protection laws may provide additional rights based on residence. These visitor-data rights are distinct from access to court records under the Indiana Access to Public Records Act and Indiana Rules on Access to Court Records. At a minimum, a visitor may:
- 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
