Information You Submit
A third-party provider receives names, phone numbers, or addresses 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 respond.
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 technology where applicable.
What We Do With This Data
We use limited data to operate the service, diagnose faults, understand traffic, and improve content. Visitor lists are not sold, and individual user profiles are not created.
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
Your place of residence may provide rights to access, correct, or delete personal data held by a website. The research did not identify a generally applicable West Virginia consumer-privacy statute for this reference, so no unsupported citation is added. Because we retain little data, a request usually requires checking contact mail and available server logs. Send it through the Contact page. Records held by West Virginia, Randolph County, or Elkins offices remain under each custodian's control.
Updates to This Policy
A revised policy will appear here. Continued use after publication indicates acceptance of the updated terms.
