Information You Submit
Names, phone numbers, and addresses entered in the search boxes are sent to the separate provider that delivers those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those queries. A message sent to us contains only the details supplied in that message and is used to respond.
Automatically Collected Data
Hosting systems create standard logs, such as IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. We use aggregate patterns to maintain the service and understand which resources are used. Cookies or similar tools can support basic analytics and advertising measurement where present.
How Information Is Used
Information is used to operate and troubleshoot the service, measure traffic, answer messages, and improve resource pages. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
External Services
Links lead to town, county, state, library, archive, and third-party search resources. The privacy policy of the destination controls information submitted there. This is especially important for sponsored search results, which a separate company provides.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Providers that host or support the service process the standard logs described above. Analytics and advertising partners may receive automatic data in connection with their services. Information is disclosed only when a valid legal process requires it.
Security and Retention
The service uses an encrypted connection, and ordinary logs are retained only for the operating purposes described here. Because the service has no accounts, it does not hold a visitor password or personal profile.
Visitors Under 18
The service is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a visitor under 18. Contact us if a minor has sent information so it can be removed.
Your Privacy Choices
You may ask about access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information the service holds. No standalone Massachusetts universal consumer data-broker deletion system was located in the research used for this service. Because we retain very little, a request usually involves reviewing the contact mailbox and relevant logs, then removing what is found. Use the Contact page for that request. Public records held by Massachusetts offices are outside our control and must be addressed with the original custodian.
Policy Updates
Any revision will be posted here. Continued use after publication of an update indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
