Privacy Policy

This policy explains which visitor data may be collected, why it is used, and when another service may receive it. Continued use of Coffey County Court Docket signifies acceptance of these practices.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or case number entered in a search tool is transmitted directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We do not retain or log those search terms on our systems.

Messages and Contact Submissions

An email may be retained as needed to prepare and send a response. Messages remain within the organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.

Data We Gather Automatically

Loading a page can cause the servers to receive these routine 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 files saved on a device. They and analytics services help aggregate traffic patterns, such as popular pages and common exit points. Browser controls can block cookies, although doing so may alter how parts of the website function.

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

No database of Coffey County dockets or personal case information is hosted, maintained, compiled, or sold here. The site provides general directions to the Clerk of the District Court, municipal clerks, Kansas CaseSearch, and court calendars. It is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is never assembled into a consumer report or a record about another person.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by the provider's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each provider controls its own retention and disclosure practices, so review those terms before running a query.

Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to court and clerk pages, Kansas CaseSearch, legal-aid resources, or commercial search tools. Once a visitor follows an outbound link, the destination's privacy terms apply. Review them before providing personal information.

Some advertising companies may use their own systems to observe activity across websites and select ads. We do not operate that tracking.

Who Might See Your Data

We do not sell personal data. Some information may end up with:

  • 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, standard safeguards are used for data in our control. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, however, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.

Users Under 18

The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If such data is identified, a request may be made for its deletion.

Your Data Rights

Applicable Kansas and federal privacy or consumer-protection law may provide rights over personal data. The Kansas Open Records Act concerns records held by public agencies, and Kansas Supreme Court Rule 22 governs electronic court-record access; neither turns this private website's visitor data into a court record. At a minimum, you can:

  • 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

Updates to This Policy

This policy may be revised as practices change. A revised version will be posted here with its new effective date, so visitors should review the page periodically.

Effective date: August 24, 2026
