Information You Submit
A third-party provider receives the name, phone number, or address entered in a search form. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. When you contact us, we use the contents of your message only to answer it.
Information Collected Automatically
Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, viewed pages, and timestamps. Aggregate review helps maintain the service and measure page use. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may rely on cookies or similar tools where applicable.
How Information Is Used
We use this limited information to operate the service, diagnose faults, understand traffic, and improve content. Visitor lists are not sold, and individual user profiles are not built.
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.
Who Might See Your Data
The service providers that host and support the site process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We disclose data when a valid legal process requires it, and not otherwise.
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.
Your Data Rights
Rights to access, correct, or delete personal data may depend on where you live. The research did not identify a generally applicable West Virginia consumer-privacy statute to cite here. Because little data is kept, a request normally involves checking contact mail and server logs and removing responsive material. Use the Contact page to ask. Records held by West Virginia, Monongalia County, or Morgantown offices remain under the custodian's control, so correction or removal requests must go there.
Updates to This Policy
Any change to this policy will be posted on this page. Using the site after a change means you accept the updated version.
