Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query entered into a search tool is sent to the outside company that operates it. That provider processes the terms and supplies its results. Macon County Court Docket does not keep a local log of names or case numbers entered in those boxes.
Messages and Contact Submissions
A direct email may be retained long enough to respond and manage the communication. It is not shared outside the operating team unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
Routine server records may include an IP address, browser and version, device and operating system, referring page, pages visited, timestamps, and time spent.
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies and analytics help measure traffic, performance, and navigation patterns. A browser can reject cookies, although some functions may then behave differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Operate, secure, and improve the website.
- Route a query to the selected outside search service.
- Measure which resources visitors use.
- Find errors and performance problems.
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
No Court-Record Data on File
This website does not host, compile, maintain, or sell a database of Macon County dockets or personal case records. It publishes access guidance for the Superior Clerk, separate courts, PeachCourt, and official directories. Georgia's Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. Title 50, Chapter 18, and Uniform Superior Court Rule 21 govern access through public custodians; they do not turn this private website into the keeper of those records.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Their privacy terms govern the data entered there, including retention and sharing. Review the displayed provider's policy before submitting any information.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Georgia court resources, clerk directories, PeachCourt, public agencies, or other services. Once a visitor leaves this website, the destination's policy controls. Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across sites.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information can reach search providers handling a chosen query, analytics vendors, advertising networks, service providers, or a government body acting under valid legal authority.
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used. No internet service can guarantee complete security, so absolute protection from every incident is not promised.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. Data known to have been submitted by a minor will be removed when identified.
Your Data Rights
Applicable Georgia privacy, consumer-protection, and open-government law may provide rights based on the type of record and the entity holding it. Georgia's Open Records Act concerns records held by public custodians, while a request about visitor data held here may seek access, correction, deletion, or an available processing opt-out.
- Ask what personal data is retained.
- Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Request deletion where applicable.
- Use any available right to limit processing.
Updates to This Policy
Revisions take effect when an updated policy is posted. Review this page periodically for the current terms.
