Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
Text entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party provider operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies any result. Stone County Court Docket does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email sent to the resource may be retained so a response can be made. It stays within the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Servers and service providers can receive routine technical details whenever a page loads. This information supports operation, security, and performance review.
- The IP address associated with the connection
- Browser type, browser version, device type, and operating system
- Pages viewed, time spent, referral source, and page-view timestamps
- Technical data used to diagnose delivery or security problems
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files placed on a device that help measure how pages are used. Analytics tools aggregate traffic patterns and performance information. Browser settings can block cookies, although parts of the site may then work differently.
What We Do With This Data
Technical and contact data may be used to operate and secure the website, route a search to its provider, assess page performance, repair service problems, and display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor.
No Court-Record Data on File
Stone County Court Docket does not host, maintain, compile, or sell a database of court dockets or personal case information. It provides general routing information for records maintained by the Stone County Circuit Clerk, the Circuit Court of Missouri, 39th Judicial Circuit, Missouri Case.net, and local municipal courts. Missouri court-record access is governed by court rules and statutes, including Court Operating Rule 4 and the Missouri Sunshine Law, RSMo 610.023, not by this resource. No visitor data is assembled into a consumer report.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes shown on some pages. Information entered into those tools is handled under each provider's own privacy policy, retention practice, and sharing rules. Review the provider's policy before submitting a query because this resource does not control those practices.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to clerk offices, Missouri court portals, Case.net, municipal pages, or third-party services. Once a visitor leaves this website, the destination's privacy policy applies. Read that policy before providing personal information.
Advertising providers can use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select advertising. That activity is governed by those providers' rules.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be handled by service providers needed to operate the website or when a valid legal process requires disclosure.
- Search providers that process a query submitted through their tools
- Analytics and hosting services used for traffic and performance measurement
- Advertising networks serving an advertisement on a page
- Government or law-enforcement bodies responding to valid legal process
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled by the website. Internet systems cannot promise complete security, and no method can guarantee that an incident will never occur.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If such information is identified, it will be removed as soon as reasonably possible.
Your Data Rights
Applicable law can provide rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or limits on processing of personal data. Missouri's Sunshine Law, RSMo 610.011 expresses an open-records policy for governmental bodies, while court files remain subject to Court Operating Rule 4 and record-specific limits. Those court-record rules do not convert this private resource into a government custodian.
- Request a copy of personal information retained about you
- Request correction of information that is inaccurate
- Request deletion of information when applicable law permits it
- Ask about available choices concerning data processing
Updates to This Policy
This policy can change as website practices or legal requirements change. The revised policy will be posted here with its effective date.
