Information You Send
A name, telephone number, or address entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider supplying those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of that query. When you contact us, we receive the details in your message and use them to answer.
Basic Technical Data
Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, viewed pages, and time of access. We review totals to maintain the service and understand general page use. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may also rely on cookies or comparable technology.
How Information Is Used
Collected technical data helps run the service, diagnose errors, measure visits, and improve content. We neither sell a visitor list nor create individual profiles of readers.
Visits to Outside Sites
Links lead to government portals, archives, library collections, and outside search providers. Once you leave, the destination's own policy controls the information you submit. Sponsored results are likewise delivered by an independent company under its policy.
Limited Data Sharing
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.
Our Safeguards
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 Privacy Choices
Privacy rights depend on the law that applies to you and the kind of information involved. Washington's My Health My Data Act, RCW 19.373, addresses consumer health data; it is not a universal removal law for public records. Since we retain little information, a request normally means checking contact messages and server logs for responsive data. Ask through the Contact page. A Washington, Thurston County, or Lacey record remains under the control of the agency that holds it, so correction or removal questions must go to that custodian.
Policy Revisions
Any change to this policy will be posted on this page. Using the site after a change means you accept the updated version.
