Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When you type a name, case clue, or Colquitt County location into one of the search tools on this site, that input goes to the third-party provider that runs the search. They process it and return results. We do not store official Georgia court records, and we do not issue certified copies.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you send an email or submit a contact form, we keep that message so we can respond or maintain ordinary business records. We do not forward private messages to the Colquitt County Clerk, Probate Court, Sheriff's Office, Magistrate Court, municipal courts, or Georgia agencies unless a valid legal obligation requires disclosure.
Data We Gather Automatically
Every time a page on this site loads, our servers pick up some technical details about the visit:
- The IP address assigned to your device
- Which browser you are using and its version
- Your device type and operating system
- The pages you visited and how long you stayed on each
- The site that sent you here, if any
- Timestamps for each page view
Cookies
We use cookies on this site. These are small files stored on your device that let us see how visitors use the site, including which Colquitt County record pages get the most traffic and where people tend to leave. Your browser settings let you block cookies. Some parts of the site may behave differently if you do.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
- Sending search requests to the right partner service when a third-party search tool is used
- Figuring out which pages people find useful and which need work
- Tracking down and fixing technical issues
- Showing ads that may line up with your interests
Links to Other Websites
Throughout the site we link to Colquitt County offices, Georgia court portals, Georgia agency pages, legal aid groups, and third-party search tools. Clicking any of those links takes you off this site. At that point, the outside site's privacy policy governs your visit. Read it before sharing personal details.
Certain advertising partners may track your activity across sites to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Some information may end up with:
- Search partners that handle queries you run on our site
- Analytics services we use to track traffic and performance
- Ad networks that place ads on our pages
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid subpoena, court order, or other legal requirement applies
How We Protect Your Data
We follow standard security practices to safeguard the data we collect. But nothing connected to the internet is risk-free. We do what we can to keep information secure, though we cannot promise a breach will never happen.
Users Under 18
This site is meant for adults researching public-record access. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. Juvenile Court records in Georgia are generally restricted and should be handled through the proper court or legal representative, not through a public search tool.
Your Data Rights
Depending on applicable law, including Georgia privacy, public-record, and consumer-protection principles such as the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. 50-18-70 et seq., and the Georgia Fair Business Practices Act, O.C.G.A. 10-1-390 et seq., visitors may have rights or options to:
- Ask for a copy of what we have on file about you
- Have us fix information that is wrong
- Request that we erase your data
- Opt out of certain kinds of data processing
Updates to This Policy
We may change this privacy policy as laws, services, advertising practices, or Colquitt County record-resource routing changes. When we do, the updated version goes up on this page with a new effective date.
