Information You Choose to Send
Search forms send the name, phone number, or address entered to the outside provider that supplies results. Our own servers do not retain a copy of those searches. A message sent to us contains only what the sender includes, and we use it to answer.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our hosting infrastructure records standard server logs: IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. We use this data in aggregate to keep the site working and to understand which pages help visitors. We may use cookies or similar technologies for basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.
What We Do With This Data
These limited data support site operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and page improvement. We neither sell visitor lists nor create profiles of individual readers.
Privacy on Linked Services
This site links to government portals, county and state records offices, library collections, and third-party search tools. Each of those sites has its own privacy policy, and data you submit there is governed by their rules, not ours. This is especially true of the sponsored search results on this site, which are provided by a third-party company.
Who Might See Your Data
Service providers that host and support this site process server logs on our behalf. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We will disclose data if a valid legal process requires it. We do not otherwise share visitor data.
Safeguards and Retention
The site is served over an encrypted connection. We retain server logs only as long as needed for the purposes above. Because we do not run accounts, there is no password or profile of yours to breach on this site.
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
Rights to access, correct, or delete site-held personal data can depend on where a visitor lives. Washington's My Health My Data Act, chapter 19.373 RCW, applies to covered consumer health data, while the Public Records Act is chapter 42.56 RCW. Because this site holds little data, a request normally concerns contact mail or server logs. Use the Contact page. Records kept by Snohomish County or Washington agencies remain under the custodian's control.
Updates to This Policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
