Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A term entered in a search feature may be sent directly to the outside company that supplies it. Do not submit Social Security numbers, full birth dates, account numbers, or other sensitive data. The outside provider controls its own collection and retention practices.
Messages and Contact Submissions
The site does not provide a channel for filing court papers or sending a record request to Mandy B. Howard, Clerk of Court. If a visitor sends information through an available site communication method, it is used only to respond or operate the service and should never include confidential case material.
Data We Gather Automatically
Like most websites, servers and service providers may record technical details such as an IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, pages viewed, and time of access. These records help maintain security, diagnose errors, and understand general traffic. They are not used to build a Screven County case file about a visitor.
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies or similar tools may remember settings, measure usage, or support advertising. Browser controls can limit or delete cookies, although some functions may then work differently.
What We Do With This Data
Collected information may be used to operate and secure the site, measure performance, understand which public-resource topics are useful, prevent misuse, and meet legal duties. It is not used to issue court records, decide a case, change a hearing, or create a consumer report.
No Court-Record Data on File
The site does not host, maintain, sell, or compile a database of Screven County docket entries or personal case information. General instructions point readers to the court, clerk, PeachCourt, and municipal channels that hold source records. Nothing collected from visitors is assembled into a report about another person.
Third-Party Search Partners
Sponsored search tools are operated by outside companies. A query, click, purchase, or account created through them may be processed under the provider's terms and privacy notice. Screven County Court Docket does not control the provider's results, retention, pricing, or security. Do not use such a tool for any Fair Credit Reporting Act purpose.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Georgia Courts E-Access, PeachCourt, the Ogeechee Judicial Circuit, Screven County, city court vendors, legal resources, or other outside services. After a visitor leaves this site, the destination's policy applies. Review it before sharing personal or payment information.
Who Might See Your Data
Limited technical information may be available to hosting, analytics, security, advertising, or other vendors that help operate the site. It may also be disclosed when law requires it, to protect legal rights, or to investigate misuse. Personal information is not sold as a Screven County court-record product.
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used for information under site control. No network or storage method is completely secure, so absolute protection cannot be promised. Sensitive information belongs only in an official channel that the proper court or clerk has approved.
Users Under 18
This service is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children. The site does not knowingly seek personal information from a child under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a child supplied such information may use the contact information available through the site operator's designated channel.
Your Data Rights
Rights depend on the visitor's location and the data involved. Georgia's Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. ยง 50-18-70 et seq., governs requests for existing records held by covered public custodians; it does not turn this private site into the Screven County Clerk of Court. A visitor may also have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or limits on certain personal information under applicable privacy or consumer law. Browser settings can control cookies.
Updates to This Policy
This policy may change as site features, vendors, or legal requirements change. A revised version takes effect when posted. Continued use after an update means the visitor should review and accept the current terms before submitting information to any linked service.
