Information Sent Directly
A name, phone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the separate provider that supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those search entries. If you contact us, we receive the contents of your message and use them to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Like most hosted services, the hosting environment may log an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. We use aggregate information to maintain the service and understand general readership. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where used.
How Limited Data Is Used
Limited data supports operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and improvements to the reference material. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
External Services and Links
Links may lead to Town, County, State, court, library, archive, or third-party search services. The policy of the destination service controls information submitted there. This includes sponsored search results supplied by an outside company.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Hosting and support providers may process the technical logs described above. Analytics or advertising partners may receive that automatic information when their tools are active. Information is disclosed in response to valid legal process when required.
Security Practices
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the operational purposes described here. There are no user accounts, passwords, or visitor profile pages on this service.
Visitors Under 18
This reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If a minor has sent information to us, contact us so it can be removed.
Your Information Choices
You may ask about, correct, or request deletion of personal information this service keeps. New York research did not identify a general enacted consumer-data deletion statute governing every private website; targeted protections include the Freedom of Information Law, Executive Law §108 for the Address Confidentiality Program, and confidentiality rules for specific government records. Because we retain little, requests usually involve a review of the contact mailbox and server logs. Use the Contact page to make a request. Government records held by New York, Rockland County, or Orangetown remain under their custodian’s correction or access process.
Policy Revisions
A revised policy will be posted here. Continued use after a posted revision indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
