Information You Submit
A third-party provider receives any name, phone number, or address entered in a search box. Our servers do not retain those searches. When you send us a message, we use its contents only to respond.
Routine Technical Data
Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. Aggregate review helps diagnose faults and measure page use. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where used.
What We Do With This Data
Operating the site, fixing problems, counting traffic, improving pages. We do not sell visitor lists and we do not build profiles of individual users.
Links to Other Websites
We link out to county and state records portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search tools. Their privacy policies, not ours, govern what you submit there. That is especially true of the sponsored search results, which a third-party company provides.
Who Might See Your Data
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.
How We Protect Your Data
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 Data Rights
Your place of residence may give you rights to see, correct, or delete personal data held by a website. The research did not identify a comprehensive Washington consumer-privacy statute that should replace this general notice. Because we retain little data, a request usually means checking the contact mailbox and available server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Records held by Washington, Yakima County, or the City of Yakima remain under the control of those public custodians.
Updates to This Policy
Any change to this policy will be posted on this page. Using the site after a change means you accept the updated version.
