Information You Submit
When you use a search form, the name, phone number, or address you enter goes to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a copy of that search. If you contact us, we receive the details you choose to send and use them to answer your message.
Information Collected Automatically
Our hosting systems create ordinary server logs that may include an IP address, browser type, visited pages, and timestamps. We review this information in aggregate to maintain the site and learn which resources visitors use. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement when applicable.
How We Use Information
The limited data described above helps us operate the site, diagnose errors, measure traffic, and improve content. We neither sell visitor lists nor create profiles of individual users.
Privacy on Linked Websites
Links may lead to Thurston County offices, Washington agencies, courts, library collections, or third-party search services. Information submitted after leaving this site is governed by the destination's privacy policy, not ours. The same is true for sponsored search results supplied by a third-party company.
Who May Process Your Data
Vendors that host or support the site may process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising providers may receive the automatically collected information described above. We may disclose data when valid legal process requires it, but we do not otherwise share visitor information.
How Information Is Protected
An encrypted connection serves the site. Server logs are kept only as long as needed for the purposes listed above. Because visitors do not create accounts, this site holds no user password or account profile.
Users Under 18
This site is not directed at children and is intended for users 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information to us, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Your rights may vary with where you live and the kind of data involved. Washington's My Health My Data Act, chapter 19.373 RCW, grants specific rights concerning consumer health data, including access and deletion in covered circumstances; it is not a general right to erase government records. Because we retain very little, we can usually check our contact mailbox and server logs promptly. Use the Contact page for a request. Records held by Thurston County, local governments, or Washington agencies remain under the control of their custodians.
Updates to This Policy
Any revised policy will appear here. If you continue using the site after an update, you accept the new version.
