Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A name or case number entered into a search tool is sent directly to the outside provider operating that tool. The provider processes the request and supplies its results. We do not keep or log those search terms on our systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
We retain an email long enough to review it and respond. Messages remain within our organization unless disclosure is required by a valid legal obligation.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our servers receive basic technical information whenever a visitor loads a page:
- 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 and Analytics
Cookies are small files saved on a device. They help show which pages receive traffic and where visits end. Analytics providers combine that activity into broader usage measures. Browser controls can block cookies, although some website functions may then behave differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Keeping the site up, running, and loading quickly
- Sending your search requests to the right partner service
- 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
No Court-Record Data on File
We do not host, maintain, compile, or sell a database of court dockets or personal case information. Hempstead County content identifies official routes such as Search ARCourts, the Hempstead County Circuit Clerk, the County Clerk, and the District Court clerk. Visitor information is not assembled into a consumer report or a record about another person, and this website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes. Information submitted there is governed by the provider's privacy policy rather than this one. Each provider controls its own retention and disclosure practices, so review those terms before running a search.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to clerk pages, trial-court portals, statewide systems, legal-aid resources, or external search services. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination's privacy policy applies. Review it before disclosing personal details.
Some advertising providers may measure activity across websites to select ads. That processing occurs on the provider's systems.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal information is not sold. Limited data may be available to:
- 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 or government bodies when a valid legal order requires it
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices protect collected information. No Internet service is completely secure, so we cannot promise that an intrusion or loss will never occur.
Users Under 18
The website is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If information from a minor is identified, we will remove it.
Your Data Rights
Applicable privacy and consumer-protection law may provide additional rights based on residence. Arkansas court-record access is separately governed by Administrative Order No. 19, while Arkansas Code ยง25-19-105 addresses public-record requests subject to exemptions. Those authorities concern government records, not a right to alter a court case through this website. For information held by us, you can:
- 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
This policy may be revised as practices change. The replacement will appear here with an updated effective date.
Effective date: August 14, 2026
