Cookies are small text files placed on a device to help the site remember basic settings, track simple patterns, and improve the browsing process. They do not collect court records, personal case files, legal documents, or any sensitive material. If a visitor chooses to learn about court record procedures through our informational pages, the cookies only relate to website performance and visitor movement across the site.

Why We Use Cookies

They support simple tasks such as remembering if a visitor agreed to the cookie banner, tracking the number of visits, and learning how users move between pages.
Since many visitors come to learn about court record topics, cookies help us look at simple activity patterns. This can show which pages people prefer or which subjects need clearer explanations. None of this activity identifies a visitor personally. It only gives general data, such as device type, general location based on the internet access point, or time spent on a page.
Cookies also help the website load faster. They store small pieces of temporary data so the site does not need to reload the same information over and over. This makes it easier for people to read information about court record processes without experiencing delays.

Cookies and Court Record Information
Visitors often explore topics connected to court records. Cookies do not access, collect, store, or share court record data. They do not read files, cases, legal details, or personal information linked to these records.

Visitors should keep in mind that court records are often controlled by state laws, clerk systems, and public access rules. None of these processes are connected to the cookies on this site. Cookies used by Volusia County Court are limited to browser behavior and general activity that helps the website run with fewer errors.
How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device
Each cookie has a lifespan. Some cookies last only during the browsing session. Once the browser closes, those cookies disappear. These are session cookies.

How Cookies Support Transparency
Many visitors come to this website to learn about court procedures, court record access, and general public information. Cookies give insight into which topics matter most to people. This helps the site highlight text that supports a smooth learning process.
For example, if more people visit pages that explain general court record categories or public access limitations, performance cookies may show increased activity for those topics. This pattern encourages us to improve those sections so visitors find clear explanations.
Cookies help highlight what visitors want to understand. This improves the educational experience without affecting court files, personal identity, or sensitive information.
