Privacy Policy

This policy describes the limited data Clarksburg Residents Directory receives, how it is handled, and the choices available to you. No account is required. We do not host Harrison County or West Virginia government records and do not build personal files about visitors.

Details You Submit

A name, telephone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the outside provider that supplies those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of the query. When you contact us, we receive the information included in your message and use it only to respond.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. We review this information in aggregate to maintain the service and understand general page use. Basic analytics and, when present, advertising measurement may rely on cookies or similar tools.


Reasons We Use Data

Data supports site operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and page improvements. We neither sell lists of visitors nor create individual user profiles.


Privacy on Linked Services

Links lead to county and state portals, archives, library collections, and outside search services. Information submitted after leaving this site is governed by the destination's policy. Sponsored results are also furnished by an outside company under its own privacy terms.


When Data May Be Shared

Vendors that host or maintain the service process server logs on our behalf. Analytics and advertising providers may receive the technical data described above. Other disclosure occurs only when valid legal process requires it.


Data Security

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.


Requests About Your Data

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to inspect, correct, or erase personal data held by a website. Current project research did not locate an enacted, broadly applicable West Virginia comprehensive consumer-privacy law, so this policy does not claim that such a general state right exists. Since we hold little data, a request normally requires checking only the contact mailbox and server logs. Send it through the Contact page. Records maintained by West Virginia, Harrison County, or Clarksburg 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.
