Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
Text entered in a search tool is sent to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results. Scott County Court Docket does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email sent to the operator may be retained to prepare a response. It is not voluntarily shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.
