Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query typed into a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the terms and supplies its results. We do not keep or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email us, we retain the message as needed to answer it. We do not disclose the message beyond our organization unless the law requires us to do so.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, servers and analytics tools may receive technical visit data:
- Your device's IP address
- Browser name and version
- Operating system and device category
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring site, when available
- The date and time of each visit
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small device files that help measure traffic and site use. Analytics can show which pages are popular and where visits end. Browser controls can block cookies, though doing so may change how parts of the site work.
What We Do With This Data
Collected visitor information may be used for these operational purposes:
- Maintaining site availability, speed, and security
- Routing a submitted query to the selected search provider
- Understanding which material is useful to visitors
- Diagnosing errors and other technical problems
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Court-Record Data on File
We do not host, maintain, sell, or compile a database of Limestone County court dockets or personal case records. The site publishes reference information about the Circuit Clerk, Alabama trial courts, municipal and Probate custodians, and official access routes. It is not a consumer reporting agency under the FCRA, and visitor information is not assembled into reports about other people.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies power the search boxes. Data submitted to one of those tools falls under that provider's privacy policy, retention rules, and sharing practices. We do not control those policies. Review the provider's terms before sending a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the Limestone County Circuit Clerk, Alabama courts, Alacourt services, legal resources, advertisers, or search providers. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy terms apply. Read those terms before providing personal information.
Advertising companies may use their own technology to measure activity across sites. That processing occurs through their systems.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be received by:
- Search providers that process a query you submit
- Analytics companies measuring traffic and performance
- Advertising networks serving content on the site
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under valid legal process
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for information in our control. No online system can guarantee perfect security, so we cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If we learn that such information was submitted, we will take steps to remove it.
Your Data Rights
Privacy rights vary with a visitor's place of residence and applicable law. A person may be able to ask what personal data we hold, request a correction or deletion, or object to certain processing. Alabama's Rules of Court-Record Privacy and Confidentiality govern sensitive identifiers and access in official court filings, while Alabama Code Section 36-12-40 addresses access to public writings. Those court and public-record rules do not create a visitor-data right against this private site.
- Ask whether we hold personal information about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Request deletion where applicable law permits it
- Opt out of processing where an applicable law grants that choice
Updates to This Policy
We may revise this policy. A revised version becomes available on this page with a new effective date. Reviewing the current text is the best way to check for changes.
Effective date: August 13, 2026
