Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or case number entered in a search tool is sent to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the request and supplies its response. We do not retain or log those query terms on our own system.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email or contact submission may be kept to provide an answer and maintain necessary correspondence. It remains within the site operation unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Page requests provide the servers with limited technical details about the visit, including:
- 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 stored on a device to measure use, such as popular pages and common exit points. Analytics services combine activity into traffic reports. A browser can block or remove cookies, although doing so may change how some features operate.
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 Jefferson County dockets or personal case information is hosted, maintained, compiled, or sold here. The content identifies official Tennessee court and clerk sources and explains how a visitor can request records from the office that keeps them. This website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not assembled into a consumer report or a record about another person.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted through them is governed by the provider's privacy terms, not this policy. Each provider controls retention and disclosure, so read its policy before sending a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links lead to clerk pages, the Jefferson County trial portal, Tennessee appellate case history, legal-aid resources, and outside search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination's privacy policy governs. Review it before providing personal information.
An advertising provider may measure activity across websites to select ads. Any such tracking takes place on the provider's systems rather than ours.
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 industry practices are used to protect collected data. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed secure, however, and freedom from every possible breach cannot be promised.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. Notice that a minor submitted such information will be addressed by deleting it.
Your Data Rights
Rights can differ based on where a visitor lives. The Tennessee Public Records Act, Tennessee Code Annotated section 10-7-503, concerns access to qualifying government records and does not turn this private website into a government records custodian. Subject to applicable privacy and consumer law, 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
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as practices or legal duties change. Replacement text will appear here with a revised effective date, so visitors should review the page periodically.
Effective date: September 6, 2026
