Data You Give Us Directly
What you type into the search forms (a name, a phone number, or an address) goes to the third-party provider that powers the results; our own servers keep no copy of your searches. If you write to us, we see only what your message contains and use it to reply.
Automatic Technical Data
Routine hosting logs can include an IP address, browser type, page views, and timestamps. We use aggregated information to operate and improve the service. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.
How Technical Data Is Used
The limited data supports operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and maintenance. 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.
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
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to ask a website for access, correction, or deletion of data it keeps. Research for this project located no enacted Ohio comprehensive consumer-privacy or broad data-broker deletion statute. Because this service keeps little visitor data, requests normally concern a contact message or server log. Use the Contact page. Public records held by Ohio offices remain under the control of the applicable custodian, and the Ohio Public Records Act, ORC 149.43, includes its own access and exemption rules.
Policy Changes
