Information You Submit
Search forms send the name, phone number, or address you enter to the outside provider that supplies results. We do not retain a server-side copy of those searches. When you contact us, we receive the details you choose to send and use them to answer your message.
Information Collected Automatically
Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, visited pages, and timestamps. Aggregated log data helps maintain the service and show which resources are useful. Cookies or related technology may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where used.
How Information Is Used
That limited information supports site operation, fault diagnosis, audience measurement, and page improvements. We neither sell a visitor list nor assemble individual user profiles.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to government portals, county and state records offices, library collections, and third-party search tools. Each of those sites has its own privacy policy, and data you submit there is governed by their rules, not ours. This is especially true of the sponsored search results on this site, which are provided by a third-party company.
Who Might See Your Data
Service providers that host and support this site process server logs on our behalf. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We will disclose data if a valid legal process requires it. We do not otherwise share visitor data.
How We Protect Your Data
The site is served over an encrypted connection. We retain server logs only as long as needed for the purposes above. Because we do not run accounts, there is no password or profile of yours to breach on this site.
Users Under 18
This site is not directed at children and is intended for users 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information to us, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
The Maryland Online Data Privacy Act, Md. Code, Commercial Law Title 14, Subtitle 46, gives covered consumers rights that include confirmation and access, correction, deletion, portability, and opt-outs for certain targeted advertising, sales, and profiling. Applicability and exceptions depend on the statute. We can search our contact mailbox and server logs for a request made through the Contact page. Government records held by Montgomery County or Maryland agencies remain outside our control and follow their own access and retention laws.
Updates to This Policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
