Privacy Notice

Information Collected

When someone uses a search box, the query is sent to the independent search provider that powers that tool. If a visitor contacts us, the message and the contact details supplied with it may be received. Standard technical information, such as browser type, device information, IP-derived data, referral page, and access time, may also be collected through server logs, cookies, analytics, or advertising technology.


How Information Is Used

Information is used to operate the reference, respond to messages, maintain site security, measure traffic, improve content, and display or measure advertising. A search partner may use a submitted query under its own privacy notice. We do not use a contact message to confirm custody or retrieve a public record from a government office.


Service Providers and Legal Requests

Information may be processed by search partners, analytics providers, advertising networks, hosting vendors, and vendors that help operate the site. It may also be disclosed when a valid legal order requires it or when disclosure is needed to protect rights, safety, or the service. These recipients apply their own practices to information they receive.


Links to Other Sites

This reference links to public offices, New York court and correctional services, and other outside resources. A link opens a separate service that is not controlled by us. Review that service's privacy notice before providing information or using its tools.


Security and Retention

Reasonable safeguards are used, but no internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed secure. Information is retained only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, operational needs, or legal obligations, then deleted or de-identified when practical.


Children and Your Choices

This service is not intended for people under 18, and it does not knowingly seek personal information from children. Subject to applicable law, a visitor may ask about, correct, delete, or limit the use of personal information we hold. Cookie choices may be available through browser settings or a provider's own controls.


Policy Changes

Technology, partners, and legal requirements can change. This notice may be revised by posting an updated version here. Continuing to use the service after an update means the revised notice applies to that use.


Privacy Questions

Questions about this notice may be sent through the Get in Touch page. Requests for an official Sullivan County record belong with the relevant public custodian, not this private service.
