Information You Submit
A third-party provider receives the name, phone number, or address entered in a search form and supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. When you contact us, we receive the contents of your message and use them to respond.
Information Collected Automatically
Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, viewed pages, and timestamps. We review grouped traffic data to maintain the service and understand page use. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may rely on cookies or similar technology.
How the Information Is Used
We use it to operate and improve pages, measure traffic, and solve technical problems. We neither sell visitor lists nor create individual user 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 applicable law, you may have rights to see, correct, or delete personal data maintained about you. The research identified no general West Virginia consumer-privacy statute to cite for this provision. Because we retain little information, we normally check our contact mailbox and server logs for a request and remove responsive data when required. Ask through the Contact page. We cannot alter public records held by West Virginia, Fayette County, or Oak Hill; direct those requests to the record custodian.
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.
