Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the third-party service that provides the results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. A message sent to us contains only what the sender chooses to include and is used to respond.
Automatically Collected Data
Like most hosted services, the site may produce routine server logs such as IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time stamps. We review aggregate patterns for reliability and page use. Cookies or comparable tools can support basic analytics and advertising measurement where applicable.
How Information Is Used
Information is used to operate the service, fix faults, measure traffic, and improve the reference material. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
External Services and Links
Links lead to Mahoning County and Ohio portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search services. The privacy terms of those providers govern information submitted after leaving this site. That also applies to sponsored search results supplied by another company.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Hosting and support providers process the routine logs needed to run the site. Analytics or advertising partners can receive the automatic data described above. We disclose information only when a valid legal requirement calls for it.
Data Security
The site uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the operational purposes described here. There are no user accounts, passwords, or personal profiles maintained by this site.
Visitors Under 18
This reference 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 has sent information so it can be removed.
Choices About Your Data
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to ask about, correct, or delete information a website keeps. The Ohio research for this site did not identify a general statewide data-broker deletion right or universal opt-out. Because we retain little information, a request usually involves checking the contact mailbox and available server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Public records kept by Ohio or Mahoning County custodians are outside our control; record correction or removal questions belong with the office that holds them.
Policy Updates
Updates will appear on this page. Continued use after an update means that the revised policy applies.
