Privacy Policy

This policy explains how Hamilton County Court Docket handles information connected with visits to this private reference site. It also describes the separate role of outside search providers and official Indiana court websites.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A query entered into a sponsored search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Hamilton County Court Docket does not control the provider's collection, matching, retention, or pricing practices. Review its policy before submitting a name or other detail.

Messages and Contact Submissions

This site does not invite case filings or official record requests. Do not send Social Security numbers, payment data, protected case details, or confidential legal material. Official requests belong with the Hamilton County Clerk or maintaining court.

Data We Gather Automatically

Standard technical records may include an IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, pages viewed, and approximate visit time. These logs help operate and secure the site and do not provide access to an official Hamilton County case file.

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies or similar tools may remember basic preferences, measure traffic, and support site functions. Browser controls can restrict cookies, although some functions may then work differently.

What We Do With This Data

Technical information may be used to maintain performance, understand general usage, detect misuse, and improve navigation. It is not used to alter Indiana MyCase, the Hamilton County Clerk's records, or any court schedule.

No Court-Record Data on File

Hamilton County Court Docket does not maintain court dockets, certified files, hearing calendars, or case documents. Official files remain with the Hamilton County Clerk and the Circuit, Superior, or city court that controls the matter. Indiana MyCase is a separate state service governed by its own terms and access rules.

Third-Party Search Partners

Sponsored tools are operated independently. A provider may collect query information, use cookies, return paid results, or apply its own retention rules. This policy does not replace that provider's privacy notice, and this site does not guarantee the accuracy of outside results.

Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to Hamilton County, Indiana Judicial Branch, legal-aid, payment, or other external resources. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's policy controls its collection and use of information.

Who Might See Your Data

Technical data may be available to hosting, analytics, security, or search-service vendors as needed for their work. Information may also be disclosed when legally required or when necessary to protect the site and its users. Personal data is not presented as an official court record.

How We Protect Your Data

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used, but no internet service can promise absolute security. Avoid submitting sensitive identifiers through general web tools. Use the Clerk's official process when a record request requires private information.

Users Under 18

This resource is intended for adults seeking public court information. It is not directed to children, and knowing collection of personal information from children is not intended.

Your Data Rights

Privacy rights may vary by residence and applicable law. A request concerning data held by an outside provider must be sent to that provider. Requests for Indiana court records are governed by the Indiana Rules on Access to Court Records, including Administrative Rule 9, and the applicable provisions of Indiana Code 5-14-3. Those rules do not make this private site the custodian of Hamilton County records.

Updates to This Policy

This policy may be revised as site practices or legal requirements change. The version posted here applies when it becomes available, so visitors should review it periodically.
