Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
Search terms entered into a third-party sponsored widget are handled under that provider's practices. The resource does not ask readers to submit a case file, docket, or court record to use its informational pages.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If a contact method is offered, information sent through it is used to respond to the message or operate the resource. Do not send Social Security numbers, full dates of birth, financial data, sealed material, or documents from a court file.
Data We Gather Automatically
Like most websites, service providers may log technical information such as browser type, device information, referring page, general activity, IP address, and the date or time of a visit. That data helps maintain security, measure use, and improve page delivery.
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies or similar tools may support basic operation, aggregate analytics, and third-party widget functions. Browser settings may limit cookies, though a provider's feature may not work the same way after they are blocked.
What We Do With This Data
Information collected for operation may be used to maintain the resource, diagnose errors, understand broad traffic patterns, protect against misuse, and respond to a message. It is not used to create an official Kalamazoo County court record or to determine a person's legal status.
No Court-Record Data on File
This resource does not host official Kalamazoo County dockets, case files, court calendars, orders, or certified records. Michigan court access is governed by the court's own process, including MCR 8.119 and MCR 1.109, not by this privacy policy.
Third-Party Search Partners
Sponsored tools, ad services, analytics providers, and official links operate under their own notices. Review the policy of the provider before entering information there. Their collection and retention practices are outside this resource's control.
Links to Other Websites
Links to Kalamazoo County, Michigan judiciary, court, and other external pages lead to independently operated websites. Their privacy terms and record-access rules control once a reader leaves this resource.
Who Might See Your Data
Data may be processed by service providers that help host, secure, analyze, or operate the resource when needed for those functions or as required by law. Information is not sold as an official court-record database.
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used for the information maintained for site operation. No internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed perfectly secure, so readers should avoid submitting sensitive court or personal information.
Users Under 18
The resource is not designed to collect personal information from children. Juvenile court records have separate Michigan access limits, including MCL 712A.28, and should be directed to the appropriate court rather than submitted here.
Your Data Rights
Depending on applicable law, a reader may have rights to ask about personal information held for site operation. A request cannot obtain, change, seal, or remove an official court record. Those matters must go through the Kalamazoo court or clerk that maintains the file.
Updates to This Policy
This policy may be revised when the resource's practices or legal requirements change. The revised policy takes effect when posted. Michigan court-record rules and Kalamazoo court procedures may change separately and should be checked with the originating court.
