Information You Submit
Names, phone numbers, or addresses entered in search forms pass to the outside provider that supplies results; our servers do not retain those searches. A direct message is used only to understand and answer the request.
Automatic Technical Data
Our hosting keeps ordinary server logs: IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps. We look at this in aggregate to keep the site healthy and to see which pages readers use. Cookies or similar technologies may support basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.
How Information Is Used
Technical data supports site operation, error repair, traffic measurement, and page improvements. 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
The Indiana Consumer Data Protection Act, IC 24-15, provides qualifying consumers rights involving access, correction, deletion, portability, and certain opt-outs for data held by covered controllers. Because this site retains little visitor information, a request generally involves the contact mailbox and server logs. Use the Contact page. Official records held by Indiana, Tippecanoe County, or West Lafayette remain under the control and retention rules of their custodians.
Policy Revisions
Changes will appear here. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
