Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or case number entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside company operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. We neither retain nor log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be kept as long as needed to answer it. Messages stay within the operating team unless disclosure is required by a valid legal duty.
Data We Gather Automatically
Loading a page can cause the servers to receive routine technical details about the visit:
- 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 placed on a device to help show broad patterns such as popular pages and exit points. Analytics providers combine that traffic information. Browser controls can block cookies, although some website functions may then behave in another way.
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 Kinney County docket database or personal case-record collection is hosted, maintained, compiled, or sold here. The content identifies official clerks, courts, and state search routes that hold those records. Kinney County Court Docket is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor information is never assembled into a consumer report or a file about another person.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by that partner's privacy policy rather than this policy. Each provider controls its retention and sharing practices, so review its terms before sending a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to clerk pages, trial court portals, statewide search systems, legal aid groups, or outside tools. Once a visitor leaves this website, the destination's privacy policy applies. Review it before providing personal details.
Some advertising providers may track activity across websites to select ads. Their own systems conduct that tracking.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information may be available to:
- 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 security practices are used to protect collected data. No internet system can be guaranteed fully secure, however, and the website cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. Contact the operator if a minor may have submitted data so it can be deleted.
Your Data Rights
Applicable privacy and consumer-protection laws may provide added rights. The Texas Public Information Act, Government Code Chapter 552, governs covered governmental information, while Texas Rule of Judicial Administration 12 addresses covered judicial records. Neither authority makes this private website a government record custodian. At a minimum, you can:
- 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 new version becomes available here with its current effective date, so visitors can review the terms that apply.
Effective date: September 7, 2026
