Information You Submit
Search forms send the name, phone number, or address you enter to the outside provider that supplies results. Shelby County People Search does not retain a copy of those queries on its servers. A direct message gives us only the details you choose to send, which we use to answer you.
Data We Gather Automatically
Our hosting systems record ordinary technical logs, including IP address, browser type, visited pages, and timestamps. Aggregate patterns help maintain the service and show which resources visitors use. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where applicable.
How Information Is Used
The limited data described above supports site operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and content improvements. We neither sell a visitor list nor create individual user profiles.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Shelby County offices, Tennessee agencies, government portals, library collections, or outside search tools. Information entered after following a link is controlled by that destination's privacy policy. The same is true for sponsored search results, which an independent company provides.
Parties That Process Data
Hosting and support vendors process technical logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic information already described. We also comply with valid legal process requiring disclosure, but do not otherwise distribute visitor data.
How We Protect Your Data
An encrypted connection serves the site, and server logs are kept only as long as their stated purposes require. Since visitors have no accounts here, Shelby County People Search holds no visitor password or account profile.
Users Under 18
The service is meant for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. Contact us if a minor appears to have submitted such information so it can be removed.
Your Data Rights
The Tennessee Information Protection Act, Tenn. Code Ann. ยงยง 47-18-3301 et seq., gives qualifying Tennessee consumers rights concerning covered private controllers, including access, correction, deletion, portability, and certain opt-outs. Exceptions and coverage thresholds apply. We hold very little, so a request normally involves checking our contact mailbox and server logs. Use the Contact page to submit one. Public records held by Shelby County or Tennessee offices remain under the custodian's law and retention duties; requests concerning those records must go to that office.
Updates to This Policy
Any revision will appear here. Using the service after a revised policy is posted signifies acceptance of that version.
