Privacy Policy

This policy explains the small amount of data Battle Ground Residents Directory may process and the choices available to visitors. No account is required, and we do not host personal public records. The service mainly points to rolls and collections held by Battle Ground, Clark County, and Washington custodians.

Information You Submit

Names, phone numbers, or addresses entered in a search box are sent to the outside provider that supplies those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. When you contact us, we use the contents of your message only to respond.


Automatic Technical Data

Standard hosting logs can include an IP address, browser type, viewed pages, and timestamps. We review combined statistics to maintain the service and understand page use. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may rely on cookies or similar tools.


What We Do With This Data

We use limited data to keep the service running, diagnose faults, measure overall traffic, and improve the material. Visitor lists are not sold, and individual user profiles are not created.


Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to county or state portals, archival and library collections, or outside search services. Information entered after leaving this service is governed by the destination's privacy policy. Sponsored results are supplied by an outside company and follow that provider's practices.


Who Might See Your Data

Hosting and technical vendors may process server logs while supporting the service. The automatic information described above may also reach analytics or advertising providers. Apart from those operational uses, disclosure occurs only when valid legal process requires it.


How We Protect Your Data

An encrypted connection protects data in transit. Logs are retained no longer than needed for the purposes already described. Because visitors do not create accounts, the service holds no user password or account profile.


Users Under 18

This service is intended for adults, not children. We do not knowingly gather personal information from a person younger than 18. Contact us if a minor may have submitted information so it can be deleted.


Your Data Rights

Applicable privacy law may give a visitor rights to access, correct, or delete personal data held by a website. Washington’s My Health My Data Act, chapter 19.373 RCW, separately governs covered consumer health data. Because we retain very little, a request normally means checking the contact mailbox and available server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Public records held by Washington, Clark County, or Battle Ground offices remain under the custodian’s control.


Updates to This Policy

Revisions will appear here when this policy changes. Continued use after a revision takes effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
