Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information may be collected when you visit, how that information is used, and when it may be provided to another party. Continued use of the website signifies acceptance of these practices.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or case number entered in a site search tool is sent directly to the outside provider that operates it. The provider processes the query and supplies the results; we neither log nor retain those search terms on our systems.

Messages and Contact Submissions

We retain an email you send so our team can respond. It is not shared beyond our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Data We Gather Automatically

When a page loads, the servers automatically receive certain technical and usage details:

  • Pages viewed, the time spent on them, and page-view timestamps
  • Your device type and operating system
  • The referring website, when one exists
  • Your device's IP address
  • The browser and version in use

Cookies and Analytics

This site uses cookies, which are small files placed on a device, to understand traffic patterns such as popular pages and common exit points. Analytics providers help combine that usage information. You may block cookies through your browser settings, although doing so can change how some site features behave.

What We Do With This Data

  • Routing search requests to the appropriate partner service
  • Diagnosing and correcting technical problems
  • Operating the site reliably and improving load times
  • Understanding which pages are useful and which need improvement
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect your interests

No Court-Record Data on File

We do not host, maintain, compile, or sell a database of court dockets or personal case-record information. The site instead provides general directions to Morgan County's Circuit Court Clerk, Clerk and Master, municipal clerks, and appellate systems because Tennessee offers no single statewide trial-court search covering the county. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and we never use visitor information to create consumer reports or profiles about other individuals.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies power the site's search boxes, so information submitted through a tool is governed by that partner's privacy policy rather than this one. Each partner controls its own retention and sharing practices. Read the applicable policy before running a search.

Links to Other Websites

Links to clerk pages, trial-court portals, statewide case-search services, legal-aid organizations, and third-party tools lead away from this website. Once you follow one, the destination's privacy policy controls the visit. Review it before providing personal information.

Some advertising partners may monitor activity across websites to deliver targeted advertising. That activity occurs on the partners' systems, not ours.

Who Might See Your Data

Personal data is not sold. Information may nevertheless be provided to:

  • Analytics providers that measure site traffic and performance
  • Search partners that process queries initiated through the site
  • Government agencies or law enforcement when compelled by a valid legal order
  • Advertising networks that serve ads on these pages

How We Protect Your Data

We use standard security measures to protect collected information. No internet-connected system is completely secure, however, so we cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.

Users Under 18

The website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such information, we will delete it promptly.

Your Data Rights

Rights concerning personal information may be available under Tennessee consumer-protection law. The Tennessee Public Records Act, Tenn. Code Ann. § 10-7-503, addresses access to government records; it does not make this private website a public-record custodian. At a minimum, you may:

  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you
  • Opt out of certain data-processing activities
  • Request deletion of your data

Updates to This Policy

This privacy policy may be revised in the future. Any revision will appear here with an updated effective date, so review this page periodically for changes to our practices.

Effective date: September 7, 2026
