Information You Submit
Search forms send the name, telephone number, or address entered to the outside provider that supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a separate copy of those searches. A message sent to us contains only what the sender chooses to provide, and we use that information to answer the message.
Information Collected Automatically
Standard server logs may record an IP address, browser type, requested pages, and timestamps. We review this information in aggregate to maintain the service and understand general use. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where those features apply.
How We Use the Data
The limited data described above helps us operate the service, diagnose faults, measure visits, and improve content. We neither sell a visitor list nor create profiles of individual users.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to government portals, North Carolina or Forsyth County offices, library collections, and outside search tools. Information submitted after leaving this service is controlled by the destination's policy. Sponsored search results also come from an independent company with its own data practices.
When Data May Be Shared
Hosting and support vendors process server logs for us, while analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic data noted above. We may disclose information in response to valid legal process. Visitor information is not otherwise shared.
How We Protect Your Data
An encrypted connection protects traffic in transit. Server logs are kept only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes already stated. Because users do not create accounts, this service stores no user password or account profile.
Visitors Under 18
The service is meant for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor appears to have submitted such information so it can be removed.
Your Data Rights
Rights to access, correct, or delete personal data vary by residence. No comprehensive North Carolina consumer-privacy deletion statute was verified for this project, so no universal state deletion right is claimed. We can search our contact mailbox and retained server logs for a request sent through the Contact page. Records held by Forsyth County, Winston-Salem, or North Carolina agencies remain under the control of their custodians, and any correction or redaction request must follow that office's law and procedure.
Changes to This Policy
A revised policy will be posted here. Using the service after a revision takes effect means that the user accepts the updated terms.
