Data You Give Us Directly
Search Queries
A query entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. The provider processes the terms and supplies its results. Prowers County Court Docket does not retain or create its own log of the names and case numbers entered there.
Messages and Contact Submissions
An email may be kept long enough to answer and maintain the related correspondence. It is not voluntarily disclosed outside the organization, although a valid legal requirement may compel disclosure.
Data We Gather Automatically
Ordinary server and analytics logs collect limited technical details when a page loads:
- Page-view dates and times
- Visited pages and approximate session length
- Referring website, when one is supplied
- Device type and operating system
- Browser name and version
- The device's assigned IP address
Cookies and Analytics
Cookies are small device files used to understand aggregate traffic, such as commonly visited pages and exit points. Analytics vendors help compile those measures. A browser can reject or remove cookies, though disabling them may change how some site functions behave.
What We Do With This Data
- Route a submitted query to the selected search provider
- Diagnose errors and other technical problems
- Maintain site performance and availability
- Measure which reference pages are useful
- Display advertising that may reflect inferred interests
No Court-Record Data on File
Prowers County Court Docket does not host, compile, maintain, or sell a database of personal court cases. It publishes reference material about the Prowers County Combined Court, municipal courts, official Colorado docket search, CoCourts, and clerk requests. Visitor information is not assembled into a consumer report, and this site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Third-Party Search Partners
Outside companies operate the displayed search tools. Their privacy policies, retention practices, and disclosure rules govern information sent into their forms. Review the relevant provider's terms before submitting personal data because this policy does not control the provider.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to the Colorado Judicial Branch, Prowers County offices, municipal courts, legal resources, or outside search services. Once an external link is opened, the destination's policy applies. Check it before supplying private information.
Advertising services may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select ads. We do not operate those external tracking systems.
Who Might See Your Data
Personal data is not sold. Limited information 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 technical and organizational safeguards are used for collected data. No online system is completely secure, so absolute protection or uninterrupted security cannot be guaranteed.
Users Under 18
This resource is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. A verified notice that a minor supplied such data will be addressed by deleting it.
Your Data Rights
Colorado residents may have rights under the Colorado Privacy Act, C.R.S. §§ 6-1-1301 et seq. Government-record access under the Colorado Open Records Act, C.R.S. §§ 24-72-200.1 et seq., is distinct from visitor privacy. Colorado court case files are governed more specifically by Chief Justice Directive 05-01, not this policy. Subject to applicable limits, a visitor may:
- 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 when practices or legal requirements change. A replacement takes effect when posted here with a revised date.
Effective date: August 16, 2026
