Information You Send
A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form is passed to the outside provider that serves results. York County Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those searches. When you contact us, we receive the contents of your message and use them to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Hosting infrastructure records routine log information such as IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. We review aggregated information to maintain the service and understand page use. Basic analytics or advertising measurement may use cookies or similar tools.
What We Do With This Data
We use this limited data to operate the reference, diagnose problems, measure traffic, and improve content. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
External Websites
Links lead to York County and South Carolina portals, library collections, archives, and outside search services. Any information submitted there is governed by that service’s own privacy terms. Sponsored results are supplied by a third party.
Who Might See Your Data
Hosting and support providers process logs on our behalf. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic technical information described above. We disclose information only when valid legal process requires disclosure.
Data Safeguards
The reference uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the operational purposes described above. Because there are no accounts, no visitor password or account profile is held here.
Users Under 18
This reference is intended for adults, not children. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. Contact us if you believe a minor has sent information, and we will remove it.
Your Data Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to seek access, correction, or deletion of data a website holds. No broad enacted South Carolina consumer-data-broker deletion law was verified in the project research. Because we hold little data, we can check the contact mailbox and available logs and remove material found there. Use the Contact page to ask. Public records held by South Carolina or York County custodians are outside our control and must be addressed to the office that keeps them.
Updates to This Policy
Policy changes will appear here. Continued use after a revised version is posted means acceptance of that version.
