Privacy Policy

This policy explains the categories of data we collect when you use this website, why we collect it, how it gets used, and the limited circumstances in which it may be shared with others. Continuing to browse this site means you acknowledge and accept the data practices outlined below.

Data You Submit Directly

If you perform a search on this site, you may type in names, locations, or other identifying details. That information is passed along to our search partners so they can return the results you requested. We do not keep a permanent copy of those search inputs on our own infrastructure once the request has been transmitted to the partner service.

Data Collected Through Your Browser

Each time you load a page on this site, certain technical information is recorded automatically by our systems. This occurs passively and includes the following data points:

  • The IP address associated with your internet connection at the time of your visit
  • The browser software you are running, including its version number
  • Hardware details such as your device type, manufacturer, and operating system
  • The specific pages you viewed and how long each page remained open in your browser
  • The referring URL or search query that brought you to our site
  • Timestamps recording the exact date and time of each page request

How We Use Cookies

This site stores small text files called cookies on your device. Cookies help us understand visitor behavior by tracking which pages attract the most attention and where users tend to leave. They also help deliver a consistent browsing experience across multiple visits. Your browser settings give you the ability to block or delete cookies, but doing so may affect how certain parts of the site function for you.

Purposes of Data Collection

The information we gather through the methods described above serves the following operational purposes:

  • Keeping the website running smoothly and available to visitors
  • Forwarding your search queries to the correct partner platforms for processing
  • Analyzing visitor traffic and usage trends to identify opportunities for improvement
  • Identifying and resolving technical malfunctions, broken pages, and server errors
  • Serving advertisements that may align with your browsing interests and geographic location

External Sites and Advertising Partners

This site contains outbound links to websites run by independent organizations. Once you navigate to one of those external sites, their privacy policies govern how your data is handled, not ours. We encourage you to examine the privacy practices of any site before you provide it with personal information.

Some of our advertising partners use tracking technologies that monitor your browsing activity across multiple websites over extended periods. This cross-site tracking enables them to construct interest profiles and serve targeted ads they consider relevant to you.

When Your Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal data to third parties. There are, however, specific situations in which data we collect may be shared with the following categories of recipients:

  • Search partners who process the record lookup requests you initiate through our site
  • Analytics platforms that help us measure site performance and understand visitor patterns
  • Advertising networks responsible for delivering and managing the ads displayed on our pages
  • Government authorities or law enforcement, but only when we are legally compelled to produce information pursuant to a valid order, subpoena, or statutory obligation

How We Protect Your Data

We employ commercially reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to defend the data we collect against unauthorized access, modification, disclosure, and destruction. However, no system connected to the internet can offer an ironclad guarantee of security. While we take appropriate measures to protect your information, we cannot assure absolute prevention of every potential breach or unauthorized intrusion.

Visitors Under 18

This website is designed for use by adults and is not intended for anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from minors. If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that a minor under your care has provided personal data through this site, please contact us immediately so we can locate and remove that information from our systems.

Rights You May Have

Depending on where you live, applicable law may grant you certain rights over the personal data we process. These rights may include:

  • Obtaining a copy of the personal data we have collected that relates to you
  • Requesting correction of any personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete
  • Asking us to delete your personal data from our records
  • Opting out of particular data collection activities or processing operations

Changes to This Policy

We retain the right to update this privacy policy whenever we see fit. Revised versions will be posted on this page as soon as they take effect. It is your responsibility to review this page periodically so you stay informed about how we collect and handle data going forward.
