Data You Give Us Directly
Information entered into the search forms, such as a name, telephone number, or address, goes to the outside provider that delivers results. Our servers do not retain those search terms. If you contact us directly, we see the contents of the message and use them to respond.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our host may record standard server details such as an IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time stamps. We use aggregate information to maintain the service and understand general traffic. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics and, where relevant, advertising measurement.
What We Do With This Data
The information supports operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and improvement of the reference pages. We do not sell visitor lists or build individual visitor profiles.
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
Rights to access, correct, delete, obtain, or opt out of specified processing can apply under the Tennessee Information Protection Act, effective July 1, 2025, where its controller and threshold rules are met. Because this service keeps very little, a request usually concerns the contact mailbox or logs. Use the Contact page. Public records held by Tennessee, Anderson County, Roane County, or Oak Ridge remain under the original custodian's control, and that office handles correction or access requests.
Updates to This Policy
We will post updates to this policy here. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
