Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or case number entered in a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the query and supplies its results; we do not retain or record those search terms.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be kept as needed to answer it. We keep messages within our organization unless disclosure is legally required.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers automatically receive basic technical information when a page loads:
- Page-view times
- Your device type and operating system
- A referring website, when one exists
- Your device's IP address
- Visited pages and time spent on them
- Browser type and version
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small device files that help show how visitors move through the site, including popular pages and common exit points. Analytics providers combine this traffic information. You may block cookies through your browser, although doing so can change how parts of the site work.
What We Do With This Data
- Diagnosing and correcting technical problems
- Routing a search to the appropriate partner
- Operating the site and maintaining performance
- Understanding which pages are useful or need improvement
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests
No Court-Record Data on File
Parke County Court Docket does not host, maintain, assemble, or sell a database of dockets or personal case-record information. It explains how to reach Indiana MyCase, Parke Circuit Court, and the Parke County Clerk for official information governed by the Indiana Rules on Access to Court Records and, where applicable, the Indiana Access to Public Records Act, Indiana Code 5-14-3. We are not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor data is not compiled into consumer reports or third-party records.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate this site's search boxes. Their privacy policies, retention rules, and sharing practices govern anything submitted there, and we do not control those terms. Read the relevant policy before searching.
Links to Other Websites
Links to the Parke County Clerk, Parke Circuit Court, Indiana MyCase, legal-aid resources, and outside search services lead away from this website. The destination's privacy policy then applies, so review it before providing personal information.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to follow activity across websites and select targeted ads.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal information. Data may nevertheless be available to:
- Analytics providers measuring traffic and performance
- Search partners processing a query
- Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal order
- Advertising networks serving ads on these pages
How We Protect Your Data
We use customary safeguards for collected data, but no internet-connected system is completely secure. Reasonable protective measures cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone younger than 18. If we learn that a minor supplied such information, we will delete it promptly.
Your Data Rights
Rights may differ according to the privacy and consumer-protection laws where you live. Indiana's Access to Public Records Act, Indiana Code 5-14-3, and the Indiana Rules on Access to Court Records govern access to official agency and court records; they do not make this private site the custodian of Parke County case files. With respect to data we hold, you may:
- Request deletion of your data
- Ask to see information held about you
- Object to certain processing
- Request correction of inaccurate information
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised. A replacement becomes available on this page with an updated effective date, so revisit it to review current practices.
Effective date: August 23, 2026
