Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form goes to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. If you contact us, we receive the contents of your message and use them to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Hosting systems may create ordinary logs, including an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time stamps. We review aggregate information to maintain the service and understand page use. Cookies or similar tools can support basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.
How Site Data Is Used
We use the limited data described above to operate, troubleshoot, measure, and improve the service. We do not sell a visitor list or create individual visitor profiles.
External Services
Links may lead to Rutherford County or Tennessee record portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search services. Their own policies govern data entered after leaving this service. The same is true for sponsored search results supplied by another company.
Who Can Receive Data
Providers that host or support the service may process server logs for us. Analytics or advertising partners can receive the automatic data described above. We disclose information when valid legal process requires disclosure and otherwise do not do so.
Data Safeguards
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the purposes described above. There are no accounts, passwords, or visitor profiles stored here for an account breach to expose.
Visitors Under 18
This service is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if you believe a minor sent information, and we will delete it.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on eligibility, the Tennessee Information Protection Act may provide access, correction, deletion, portability, and opt-out rights for data held by qualifying businesses. Tennessee Attorney General guidance identifies the law as effective July 1, 2025, with exemptions and conditions. Because we retain little information, requests usually concern the contact mailbox or server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Records held by Tennessee, Rutherford County, or Smyrna custodians are outside our control and must be addressed to the office holding them.
Policy Changes
We will post any revision to this policy here. Continued use after a posted change indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
