Information You Send
A name, telephone number, or address entered into a search form is handled by the provider that delivers that search result. Our servers do not retain a separate copy of those queries. If you contact us, we receive the details in your message and use them only to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Our host records routine log information, such as an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time of request. We review this in aggregate to maintain the service and understand page use. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics and, where used, advertising measurement.
How We Use Information
Information is used to operate the reference, correct technical issues, measure traffic, and improve content. We do not sell lists of visitors or create personal visitor profiles.
External Resources
Links can lead to county and state portals, library collections, archives, or third-party search services. The policy of the destination service governs information you submit there. The same is true for sponsored search results supplied by another company.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Hosting and support providers process server logs for us. Analytics or advertising providers may receive the automatic data described above. We disclose information only when valid legal process requires disclosure.
Safeguards
The reference uses an encrypted connection, and routine logs are kept only for as long as the operational purposes described above require. There are no visitor accounts, passwords, or user profiles stored here.
Visitors Under 18
This reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. Contact us if you believe a minor has sent personal information, and we will remove it.
Your Information Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to ask for access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data kept by a website. Missouri research reviewed for this reference did not identify a general consumer data-broker deletion right. Because we retain very little, requests normally involve checking our contact mailbox and server logs, then removing what we find. Use the Contact page to ask. Public records held by Missouri, county, or city custodians are outside our control, and removal requests for them belong with the relevant office.
Policy Updates
We will post any revision to this policy here. Continued use after a posted revision means you accept the updated policy.
