Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or case number entered in a search box is transmitted directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its result. We do not retain or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email or contact submission may be retained long enough to answer and maintain the related correspondence. It is kept within the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Loading a page can cause the servers to receive standard technical and usage 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 exit points. Analytics providers help combine that usage information. Browser controls can block cookies, although disabling them may change how some features work.
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 court dockets or personal case information is hosted, maintained, compiled, or sold here. The content identifies how to reach the Stevens County District Court Clerk, Kansas court search, and other official custodians. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not assembled into reports about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Their privacy terms, retention periods, and disclosure practices govern information submitted to them; this policy does not. Review the provider's terms before running a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to court portals, clerk pages, legal-aid resources, or private tools. Once a visitor leaves this website, the destination's policy applies. Review it before providing personal information.
Some advertising providers may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select ads.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. It may be disclosed to these limited recipients:
- 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 collected information. No internet system can guarantee complete security, so freedom from every 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. Information known to have been submitted by a minor will be deleted as required.
Your Data Rights
Rights may vary with the law that applies where a visitor lives. The Kansas Open Records Act, K.S.A. 45-215 through 45-223, concerns government records and does not turn this private website into a public agency. Subject to applicable 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. A revision will be posted here with its new effective date.
