Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query entered into a search tool is transmitted to the outside company that provides that tool. The provider processes the terms and supplies its own results. Florence County Court Docket does not keep or record those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
A message sent directly to us may be retained long enough to review it, respond, and maintain necessary correspondence. It is not voluntarily distributed beyond the people who operate the site. Disclosure may occur when the law validly requires it.
Data We Gather Automatically
Normal server and analytics functions may collect technical details when a visitor loads a page, including:
- Page-view dates and times
- The referring site, when one is reported
- Pages viewed and approximate visit duration
- Browser name and version
- Device category and operating system
- The device's internet protocol address
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files saved through a browser. They and analytics services help produce aggregate information about traffic, popular pages, and how visits proceed. Browser controls can refuse or remove cookies. Blocking them may change how some website functions behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Delivering a query to the selected third-party search provider
- Measuring which information visitors use
- Maintaining availability and page performance
- Diagnosing errors and other technical problems
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Court-Record Data on File
Florence County Court Docket does not keep, compile, host, or sell a database of court cases or personal court-record details. It provides general directions to Wisconsin Circuit Court Access and the Florence County Clerk of Circuit Court, which maintain the official public information and local file. This website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Visitor information is not assembled into a consumer report or a profile about a person named in a court record.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies supply the search boxes used on some pages. Their privacy terms, retention periods, and disclosure practices govern information submitted to those tools. We do not direct those policies. Review the provider's notice before entering a query.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to WCCA, the Florence County Clerk of Circuit Court, Wisconsin Court System services, legal-help resources, advertisers, or search providers. A destination's own privacy policy applies after a visitor leaves this website. Read that policy before submitting personal information.
An advertising provider may use its systems to measure activity across websites and select targeted advertising. That processing is controlled by the provider.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal information. Data may be available in limited circumstances to:
- Analytics vendors that measure use and performance
- Search providers that receive a query submitted to their tool
- Advertising networks that serve material on a page
- A government authority or law-enforcement agency acting under a valid legal demand
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to protect information under our control. No internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed secure, so absolute protection against every unauthorized event cannot be promised.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If we learn that such information was submitted, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
Your Data Rights
Rights may differ based on the law that applies where a visitor lives. Wisconsin's public-records provisions, Wis. Stat. §§ 19.31 through 19.39, govern access to records held by public authorities, not visitor data held by this private website. Court records also remain subject to court confidentiality rules and statutes, including Wis. Stat. §§ 48.396 and 938.396 for protected juvenile records. For information held by this website, a visitor may:
- Request deletion where applicable
- Ask what personal information is held about the visitor
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Object to certain processing when the governing law provides that choice
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised as website practices or legal duties change. A revised version will be posted here with its new effective date. Visitors should review the current version when they want to understand how information is handled.
Effective date: September 7, 2026
