Information You Provide
A name, phone number, or address entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that supplies those results. Lexington Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those searches on its own servers. If a reader contacts us, the information in that message is used only to respond.
Data We Gather Automatically
Hosting services create standard logs such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. Those records are reviewed in aggregate for maintenance and readership patterns. Cookies or comparable technology may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where applicable.
What We Do With This Data
That limited information supports site operation, diagnostics, traffic measurement, and page improvements. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to County and State portals, library collections, archives, or third-party search services. The privacy policy of the destination governs information submitted there, including through sponsored results provided by another company.
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 Data Rights
Depending on where a reader lives, privacy law may provide rights to access, correct, or delete data a website keeps. South Carolina research identified public-record access law, S.C. Code Ann. Title 30, Chapter 4, rather than a general consumer-data deletion statute applicable to this reference. Because we retain little, a request generally involves the contact mailbox and available server logs. Use the Contact page. Public records held by South Carolina, Lexington County, or Town of Lexington custodians are outside our control and must be addressed to the 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.
