Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
When a name or case number is entered into a search tool on this site, the input is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. The provider processes the query and returns its own result. Custer County Court Docket does not store or log the search terms entered through those tools.
Messages and Contact Submissions
If an email is sent to the site operator, the message is retained so a response can be made. It stays within the operating team unless disclosure is required by a legal obligation.
Data We Gather Automatically
When a Custer County Court Docket page loads, technical information about the visit may be collected by the hosting or analytics service:
- The IP address associated with the device.
- The browser type and version used for the visit.
- The device type and operating system.
- The pages viewed and the time spent on them.
- The referring site, when one is provided.
- The date and time of each page view.
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small files saved on a device that help measure how visitors use the resource. Analytics tools may aggregate visit data to show which pages are used and where visitors leave. Browser controls can block cookies, although parts of the site may work differently when they are blocked.
What We Do With This Data
Technical and contact information may be used for ordinary operation of the reference resource, including:
- Keeping the site available and improving page performance.
- Sending a submitted search request to the relevant partner service.
- Assessing which court-information pages are useful to visitors.
- Finding and correcting technical faults.
- Displaying advertising that may be based on interest signals.
No Court-Record Data on File
Custer County Court Docket does not host, maintain, compile, or sell a database of Custer court dockets or personal case records. It provides general routing information about the public court record sources kept by the Custer County Court clerk, the Custer District Court clerk, and Nebraska JUSTICE. It is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and visitor information is not assembled into consumer reports or dossiers about third parties.
Nebraska court records are governed by the Nebraska Court Rules of Public Access to Records, Article 8, and the Nebraska Public Records Act, section 84-712, subject to confidentiality and other restrictions. Those rules govern records held by the court system. They do not turn this private resource into a court-record custodian.
Third-Party Search Partners
Search boxes on the site are operated by outside providers. Information entered into one of those tools is subject to the provider's privacy policy, retention practices, and sharing rules rather than this policy. The provider controls its own results and pricing. Review that provider's policy before submitting information.
Links to Other Websites
The resource links to Nebraska Judicial Branch pages, clerk directories, court calendars, the statewide case-search system, statutes, and third-party tools. Selecting one of those links leaves this site. The destination's privacy terms apply after that point, so review them before providing personal information.
Advertising partners may track activity across sites to serve targeted advertising. That activity takes place in their systems, not in the Custer County Court Docket court-reference content.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Information can be shared with the limited service categories needed to operate the site:
- Search partners that process queries submitted through their tools.
- Analytics services used to measure traffic and technical performance.
- Advertising networks that place advertising on the pages.
- Law enforcement or government entities when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
How We Protect Your Data
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information collected for site operation. Internet-connected systems cannot be made risk-free, however, and no promise can be made that a breach will never occur.
Users Under 18
This reference resource is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from people under 18. If a minor's information is believed to have been submitted, a request for removal can be made to the site operator.
Your Data Rights
Depending on a visitor's location, privacy or consumer-protection law may provide rights about data held by a private service. Nebraska's Public Records Act and Article 8 concern public records in the custody of government and courts, not a special record-access right to this site's visitor data. Subject to applicable law, a visitor may:
- Request a copy of personal information held by the site operator.
- Ask for correction of information that is inaccurate.
- Request deletion of personal information.
- Opt out of certain processing where the law provides that choice.
Updates to This Policy
This privacy policy may change as the resource or applicable practices change. A revised version will be posted here with a new effective date. Visitors who want to track those practices should review the current policy periodically.
Effective date: August 29, 2026
