Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or case number submitted through a search tool is transmitted directly to the outside provider that operates that service. The provider processes the request and supplies any results. We neither retain nor record the terms entered into those tools on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email sent to us may be kept as needed to prepare and deliver a response. We restrict the message to our organization and do not disclose it elsewhere unless the law requires disclosure.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers automatically receive certain technical information whenever a visitor loads a page:
- Your device's assigned IP address
- The name and version of the browser in use
- Operating-system and device-category information
- Pages viewed and the time spent on them
- Any referring website that directed the visit
- The date and time associated with each page request
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device to help measure how the website is used, including popular pages and points where visits end. Analytics providers assist in combining this traffic information. Cookies may be blocked through browser controls, though disabling them can change how some website functions behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Operating the website and maintaining its speed and availability
- Routing a search request to the appropriate outside service
- Assessing which content is useful and where improvements are needed
- Diagnosing errors and correcting technical problems
- Presenting advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests
No Court-Record Data on File
No database of Webster County dockets or personal case records is hosted, maintained, assembled, or sold here. The website provides general routing information for the court, clerk, or official provider responsible for a record. The Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. ยง 50-18-70 et seq., does not make this private website a custodian of court records. We are not a consumer reporting agency and do not compile visitor information into reports concerning other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes displayed on the website. Information placed in one of those tools is governed by that provider's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each provider controls its own retention and disclosure rules. Review those terms before sending a query because we cannot direct the provider's data practices.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to clerk pages, trial-court portals, statewide search systems, legal-aid organizations, or outside search services. Following one leaves this website, and the destination's privacy rules then apply. Read the destination policy before providing personal information.
Some advertising providers may measure activity across multiple websites to select targeted advertising. Any such tracking is performed through the provider's systems, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal information is not sold. It may, however, be received by the following parties in the stated circumstances:
- Outside search providers that process a submitted query
- Analytics vendors that measure visits and website performance
- Advertising networks that supply ads to the pages
- Government agencies or law enforcement when disclosure is compelled by a valid legal order
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, standard security measures are used to protect collected information. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed completely secure. Although safeguards are maintained, we cannot promise that unauthorized access or a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from a person younger than 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such information, contact us so it can be deleted promptly.
Your Data Rights
Georgia consumer-protection provisions, federal law, or the law where a visitor resides may provide rights concerning personal information. At minimum, a person may:
- Request a copy of personal information held about that person
- Seek correction of inaccurate information
- Ask that personal data be deleted
- Decline certain forms of information processing
Updates to This Policy
This privacy policy may be revised from time to time. A revised policy will be posted here and will carry a new effective date. Visitors should review the page periodically for changes to the way information is handled.
Effective date: August 21, 2026
