Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form is sent to the independent provider that produces the result. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. A message sent to us contains only the information you choose to include, and we use it to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Like most web hosting, our service records ordinary log details such as an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. We review that information in aggregate to maintain the service and understand page use. Cookies or similar tools can support basic analytics and advertising measurement where used.
What We Do With This Data
We use limited information to operate the reference, troubleshoot, measure traffic, and improve content. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
Links to Other Websites
We link out to county and state records portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search tools. Their privacy policies, not ours, govern what you submit there. That is especially true of the sponsored search results, which a third-party company provides.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Hosting and support providers process log information for us, and analytics or advertising partners may receive the technical information described above. We disclose information only when required by valid legal process or otherwise required by law.
How We Protect Your Data
The site runs over an encrypted connection and logs are kept only as long as the purposes above need them. There are no accounts here, so no password or profile of yours exists on this site to be exposed.
Users Under 18
The site is meant for adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18; if you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Choices About Your Data
You may ask about personal information this service holds by using the Contact page. New York has no single comprehensive consumer-data statute cited in the research for a universal deletion right, but we will review the contact mailbox and applicable logs and remove information where appropriate. Public records held by Palm Tree, Orange County, or New York agencies are outside our control. A correction or removal request for those records belongs with the relevant custodian.
Updates to This Policy
Changes to this policy will appear here. Continued use after a posted revision indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
