Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form is sent to the third-party provider that supplies those results; our own servers do not keep a copy of the search. If you contact us, we receive the details included in your message and use them to answer it.
Routine Technical Logs
Hosting systems may record an IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. Those details are reviewed in aggregate for security, site maintenance, and broad readership measures. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics or, where applicable, advertising measurement.
How We Use It
Technical data helps operate the reference, troubleshoot faults, understand aggregate traffic, and improve the pages. We do not sell visitor lists or build individual user profiles from this information.
External Portals and Links
Pages link to Los Angeles County and California records portals, the Palos Verdes Library District, archives, and third-party search tools. A destination’s privacy policy controls what you enter there. Sponsored results are also supplied by an outside company, not by the reference operator.
Who May Receive It
Hosting and technical service providers may process server logs while supporting the pages. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. Information is disclosed when valid legal process requires it, and otherwise is not shared beyond ordinary service support.
Security Measures
The pages use an encrypted connection, and logs are kept only for as long as the purposes above require. There are no user accounts, passwords, or personal profiles stored here for an account breach to expose.
People Under 18
The reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent information to us, contact us so it can be deleted.
Your California Privacy Choices
Where it applies, the California Consumer Privacy Act, Civil Code §1798.100 et seq., as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, gives covered consumers rights to know or access, delete, correct, and opt out of sale or sharing, subject to exceptions. The California Privacy Protection Agency provides current guidance. California’s Delete Act, Senate Bill 362, created a data-broker deletion framework; current instructions control as implementation changes.
Because the reference keeps little information, a request usually means checking the contact mailbox and applicable logs, then removing what can be found. Use the Contact page to ask. Government records held by California, Los Angeles County, or Rancho Palos Verdes offices are outside our control; requests to change them belong with the custodian. The California Public Records Act, Government Code §§7920.000-7931.000, governs access to many existing public records, not deletion by this operator.
