Cookies and similar tools help measure how the site is used and support its features. A browser can be set to block cookies, though some functions may then work differently.
How Information Is Used
Information is used to operate and improve the site, route a search to the appropriate partner service, understand which material visitors use, address technical issues, and display advertising that may be relevant to interests.
Linked Services and Advertising
The site links to public offices, records portals, and third-party tools. Once a visitor follows a link, that other service's privacy practices apply. Advertising partners may collect activity across websites for interest-based advertising on their own systems.
Recipients of Data
Personal data is not sold. It may be handled by search partners that process a submitted query, analytics providers, advertising networks, and law-enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information, but no internet-connected system can promise complete security. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive details that are not necessary for a message.
Visitors Under 18
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from people under 18. If a parent or guardian believes a minor submitted information, they may request its deletion.
Choices About Your Data
A visitor may request a copy of personal information held through a direct message, ask to correct inaccurate information, request deletion where applicable, or opt out of certain processing. These requests do not control information held by an independent partner or a government custodian.
Changes to This Notice
This notice may be revised as the site's practices change. A revised version will be posted here with an updated effective date.
