Data You Provide
The search forms on this site send the name, phone number, or address you enter to the third-party search provider that returns the results. We do not store your searches on our own servers. If you contact us, we receive the details you choose to send and use them only to respond.
Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our hosting systems create standard server logs. Those logs may include IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. We review this information in aggregate to keep the site functioning and to see which pages are useful. Cookies or similar tools may be used for basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.
How We Use Data
We use the data described above to run the site, troubleshoot errors, measure traffic, and improve pages. We do not sell a visitor list. We also do not build individual user profiles from site activity.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to government portals, Orange County and California records offices, library collections, and third-party search tools. Each destination has its own privacy policy, and data you submit there is governed by that site's rules, not ours. Sponsored search results are provided by a third-party company and follow that company's data practices.
Who May See Data
Service providers that host and support this site process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We will disclose data if valid legal process requires it. Apart from those uses, we do not share visitor data.
How Data Is Protected
The site is served over an encrypted connection. Server logs are kept only as long as needed for the purposes described above. Because this site has no user accounts, it does not hold a password or member profile for you.
Users Under 18
This site is not directed at children and is intended for users 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information to us, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or limit certain uses of personal data a website holds about you. California residents may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act. Because we hold very little, most requests are narrow: we can search our contact mailbox and server logs and remove what we find. Use the Contact page to make a request. Public records held by Dana Point, Orange County, or California offices are outside our control; removal or correction requests for those records must go to the custodian office.
Updates to This Policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised policy.
