This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit County Records Hub and how that information is used.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
County Records Hub does not require registration and does not request that you submit personally identifiable information (PII) to browse our pages. We do not ask for your name, address, phone number, government ID numbers, or payment details.
We do not sell records, run background checks, or provide “instant” record retrieval. Any searches you perform happen on official government websites after you click through from our directory.
We do not sell, rent, or lease any personal information to third parties. For the purposes of the CCPA, we do not 'sell' user data.
3. Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our servers may automatically receive and record limited information when you visit. This can include your IP address, browser type, device information, approximate location (derived from IP), pages you visited on our site, timestamps, and referring/exit pages.
This information is commonly used to maintain site security, troubleshoot errors, measure site performance, and understand broad usage patterns. We do not attempt to use server logs to identify you as an individual.
4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site (for example, which pages are viewed most often and how users navigate). Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies to collect usage information.
We use Analytics reports to improve site structure, fix broken pages, and prioritize updates. We do not use Google Analytics to collect sensitive personal information, and we do not merge Analytics data with information that directly identifies you.
5. Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads, measure ad performance, and personalize advertising based on your interests.
You can opt-out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small files that websites may place on your device to remember preferences or enable certain features. In our case, cookies may be used by Google Analytics and Google AdSense. Some cookies may be strictly necessary for basic site functions, while others support measurement or advertising.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to delete cookies, block cookies, or receive a warning before cookies are stored. If you disable cookies, parts of the web (including third-party services) may not function as intended.
7. External Links
Our site contains links to official government resources and other external websites. When you click an external link, you leave County Records Hub. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of external sites.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit, especially if those sites request personal information or provide account-based services.
8. Data Retention
We do not maintain user profiles or accounts. For site operations, limited server log data may be retained for a period of time to support security, debugging, and performance monitoring.
Data collected through Google Analytics and Google AdSense is retained and managed according to Google’s systems and settings. We use these services primarily for aggregated reporting and site improvement.
9. Children’s Privacy
County Records Hub is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us (for example, by emailing us), please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.
10. Your Choices
You can reduce or control data collection in several ways: use browser settings to block or delete cookies, use privacy-focused browser modes, or adjust ad personalization settings through Google’s controls.
If you contact us by email, you control what you share. For privacy reasons, please avoid sending sensitive personal data (such as Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, or full case details) by email.
