Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When a name or case number is entered in a search tool displayed on this site, the query is sent to the third-party provider operating that tool. The provider processes the request and supplies any result. We do not keep or log those search terms on our own systems.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If you email us, we retain the message in order to respond. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a page loads, the site may receive technical information about the visit, including:
- 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 stored on a device. We use them with analytics services to understand aggregate traffic, popular pages, and visitor paths. Browser settings can block cookies, although some site functions may then work differently.
What We Do With This Data
- Operating, securing, and improving the site's performance
- Routing a submitted search query to the appropriate partner service
- Assessing which resources visitors use and where improvements are needed
- Diagnosing and resolving technical problems
- Displaying advertising that may reflect inferred interests
No Court-Record Data on File
This site does not host, maintain, compile, or sell a database of court dockets or personal case-record information. It publishes general routing guidance for records held by the Terrebonne Parish Clerk of Court, the Thirty-Second Judicial District Court, Houma City Court, and other appropriate custodians. Louisiana's Public Records Law, La. R.S. 44:1, 44:31, and 44:32, addresses public-record access, while La. R.S. 13:850 addresses electronic filings and protected identifiers. Those rules govern clerk-held court records, not a database maintained by this site. We are not a consumer reporting agency, and visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or files about third parties.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the search boxes that appear on this site. Information entered in those tools is handled under the provider's own privacy policy, retention practices, and sharing rules. We do not control those practices, so review the provider's policy before submitting a query.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to the Terrebonne Parish Clerk, the 32nd JDC, Cott eSearch, eClerksLA, and other court or third-party resources. Following a link takes a visitor to a separate website governed by that site's privacy practices. Review those practices before providing personal information.
Some advertising partners may track activity across sites to deliver interest-based advertising. That tracking occurs through their systems, not ours.
Who Might See Your Data
We do not sell personal data. Information may be available to:
- Search partners that process a query submitted through their tools
- Analytics providers used to measure traffic and site performance
- Advertising networks that deliver ads on site pages
- Government bodies or law enforcement when a valid legal requirement applies
How We Protect Your Data
We use reasonable security practices for information received through the site. No internet-connected system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access will never occur.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a parent or guardian believes that a minor has provided information, they may ask us to remove it.
Your Data Rights
Louisiana court-record access is addressed by La. R.S. 44:1, 44:31, and 44:32, and electronic filings must protect specified identifiers under La. R.S. 13:850. Those provisions concern public records and court filings rather than a general privacy right against this private site. Depending on where you live, other privacy or consumer-protection law may provide additional rights. At a minimum, 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
We may revise this privacy policy. A revised version will be posted here with an updated effective date.
Effective date: August 26, 2026
