Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the third-party provider that supplies its results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. If you contact us, we receive the information in your message and use it to respond.
Automatically Collected Data
Our host may create standard server logs, including an IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps. We review that information in aggregate to maintain the service and understand page use. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics and, when applicable, advertising measurement.
How We Use Information
Information is used to operate the site, resolve technical issues, measure traffic, and improve content. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
External Links and Search Tools
Links may lead to Cole County and Missouri portals, library collections, archives, or third-party search tools. The policy of the destination controls information submitted there, including information sent through sponsored search results supplied by another company.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Hosting and support providers process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We disclose information only when valid legal process requires disclosure.
Data Safeguards
The site uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the purposes stated above. There are no site accounts, passwords, or visitor profiles for us to maintain.
Visitors Under 18
The service is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect information from a person under 18. If you believe a minor sent us personal information, contact us so it can be removed.
Your Information Choices
You may ask about personal data this site keeps and request correction or deletion where applicable. The research for this site did not identify a Missouri broad consumer-privacy statute governing this private reference. Because we retain very little, a request generally involves checking the contact mailbox and relevant server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Public records held by Missouri, Cole County, or Jefferson City remain under the control of their custodians: Missouri Sunshine Law, Chapter 610, governs access to open public records, RSMo ยง115.157 controls public voter-record fields and protected addresses, and RSMo Chapters 193 and 194 govern vital-record access.
