Data You Give Us Directly
Search boxes on this site send the name, phone number, or address you enter to the third-party provider that supplies sponsored results. We do not keep a separate copy of those searches on our own servers. If you contact us, we receive the information you choose to send and use it to respond.
Automatic Site Data
Our hosting systems may log standard technical data, such as IP address, browser type, page viewed, referring page, and timestamp. We use that information in aggregate to keep pages available, troubleshoot errors, and understand which Glendale record topics readers use most. Cookies or similar tools may be used for basic analytics and advertising measurement.
How We Use Data
We use collected data to operate the site, answer messages, measure traffic, and improve page quality. We do not sell a visitor list. We do not build dossiers about individual readers. Public records held by Glendale, Los Angeles County, California agencies, courts, libraries, or other custodians are outside our control.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to government portals, courts, county and state offices, library collections, and sponsored search tools. Each outside site has its own privacy rules. Information submitted to LAVote, LACourt, the Los Angeles County Assessor, the City of Glendale, the California Secretary of State, or any third-party search provider is governed by that site, not by this policy.
Who May Process Data
Hosting, analytics, advertising, and support providers may process the technical data described above on our behalf. We may disclose data if valid legal process requires it. Other than those limited uses, we do not share visitor data as an ordinary business practice.
How Data Is Protected
The site is delivered over an encrypted connection. Server logs are retained only as long as needed for operations, security, analytics, and compliance. Because the site does not run user accounts, it does not store passwords or personal profiles for readers.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor sent personal information to us, contact us and we will delete what we can locate.
Your Privacy Rights
California privacy law, including the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act framework, may give California residents rights to know, delete, or correct personal information held by covered businesses. The California Attorney General states that covered businesses generally respond within 45 calendar days, with a possible additional 45-day extension. Because we hold very little, requests usually involve checking contact messages and server logs. Use the Contact page to make a request. Requests about government records must go to the custodian office under the California Public Records Act or the record-specific law that applies.
Policy Updates
If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted here. Continued use of the site after a posted update means you accept the updated policy.
