Public Records and Protected Personal Information

Protect yourself from identity theft. Florida Statute mandates the Clerk to enable internet access to Official Records. See ยง28.2221, Fla. Stat. (2011). Your social security number and other sensitive information may appear in the Official Records due to the preparation of documents in the past.

We have electronically reviewed our Internet documents (over 14 million pages) and blocked sensitive items. Due to various issues, such as poor document quality or handwritten data, the system could have missed some sensitive information.

Any person has the right to request the removal of any social security number, bank account number or credit card number, from an image or copy of an Official Record placed on the Clerk & Comptroller's publicly available web site or otherwise made electronically available to the general public.
