Information You Submit
Search forms send the name, telephone number, or address you enter to the outside provider that supplies results. Our servers do not retain a separate search copy. If you contact us, we receive the details you choose to provide and use them to answer the message.
Information Collected Automatically
Our hosting systems keep routine logs such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and access times. We review aggregate data to maintain the service and learn which resources are useful. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where used.
How the Data Is Used
These limited details help us operate the service, diagnose errors, measure visits, and improve content. We neither sell a visitor list nor assemble individual user profiles.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to City of Seattle, King County, Washington State, library, or outside search services. Information submitted after leaving this site is controlled by the destination's privacy terms. The same applies to sponsored search results supplied by a third party.
When Data May Be Shared
Hosting and support vendors process logs for us. Analytics or advertising providers may receive the automatic information described above. We may disclose data in response to valid legal process; otherwise, visitor information is not shared.
Safeguarding Information
An encrypted connection delivers the site. Logs are kept only as long as needed for the stated purposes. Since visitors do not create accounts, we hold no site password or user profile for them.
Visitors Under 18
This service is intended for adults, not children. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted personal data so we can remove it.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on your residence and the type of data involved, you may have rights to request access, correction, or deletion. Washington's My Health My Data Act, chapter 19.373 RCW, creates rights for covered consumer health data; it is not a universal deletion law for all public information. Because we retain little, a request generally involves checking contact messages and available logs. Send it through the Contact page. Records held by Seattle, King County, or Washington agencies remain under the custodian's control, so requests concerning those files must go to that office.
Policy Changes
A revised policy will appear here when changes are made. Continued use after publication indicates acceptance of the updated terms.
