Privacy Policy

This policy explains the limited data Cartersville Residents Directory receives, how it is handled, and the choices available to visitors. The private reference site requires no user account and does not host Cartersville or Georgia public records.

Information You Submit

A third-party provider receives the name, phone number, or address entered in a search form; our servers do not retain a copy of that query. When you contact us, we use only the contents of your message to respond.


Information Collected Automatically

Our hosting keeps ordinary server logs: IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps. We look at this in aggregate to keep the site healthy and to see which pages readers use. Cookies or similar technologies may support basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.


What We Do With This Data

We use this limited information to operate the site, diagnose faults, understand aggregate traffic, and improve the pages. We neither sell visitor lists nor create profiles of individual readers.


Links to Other Websites

We link out to county and state records portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search tools. Their privacy policies, not ours, govern what you submit there. That is especially true of the sponsored search results, which a third-party company provides.


Who Might See Your Data

The service providers that host and support the site process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We disclose data when a valid legal process requires it, and not otherwise.


How We Protect Your Data

The site runs over an encrypted connection and logs are kept only as long as the purposes above need them. There are no accounts here, so no password or profile of yours exists on this site to be exposed.


Users Under 18

The site is meant for adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18; if you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.


Your Privacy Choices

No comprehensive Georgia consumer privacy deletion statute was identified in the project research, although narrower state and federal protections still apply. Because we retain little data, a request generally means checking our contact mailbox and server logs, then deleting responsive information. Use the Contact page to ask. Records held by Georgia, Bartow County, or Cartersville offices are outside our control. Access to those public records is generally governed by the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. ยงยง50-18-70 through 50-18-77, and correction or removal requests must go to the responsible custodian.


Updates to This Policy

Any change to this policy will be posted on this page. Using the site after a change means you accept the updated version.
