Privacy Policy

This policy explains the limited information Madison County Residents Directory receives, how it is handled, and the choices available to visitors. No account is required. The site points to public rolls and historical collections in Madison County, Alabama, but it does not store those government records.

Information You Submit

Names, phone numbers, or addresses entered into a search box are sent to the third-party company that supplies those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. When you contact us, we receive the details included in your message and use them to respond.


Automatic Technical Data

Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, viewed pages, and time of access. We use aggregate patterns to maintain the site and understand page use. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may also rely on cookies or comparable technology.


How Information Is Used

Limited site data helps us operate pages, diagnose errors, measure traffic, and improve content. We neither sell a visitor list nor create individual visitor profiles.


Privacy on Linked Services

Links lead to Madison County and Alabama portals, libraries, archives, and outside search providers. Information sent to those services is controlled by their policies. Sponsored search results are supplied by a separate company and are also subject to that provider's terms.


Who Might See Your Data

Vendors that host or support the site may process technical logs for us. Analytics and advertising services may receive the automatic information described in this policy. We may disclose data in response to valid legal process, but do not otherwise distribute it.


How We Protect Your Data

An encrypted connection protects data in transit, and logs are retained only as long as needed for the purposes stated above. Because visitors create no account, the site keeps no user password or profile.


Users Under 18

This service is intended for adults, not children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone younger than eighteen. Contact us if a minor supplied information so it can be removed.


Your Data Rights

Your residence may give you rights to access, correct, or delete personal information a website maintains. The project research found no comprehensive Alabama consumer data-broker deletion statute, so no universal Alabama removal right is promised here. We can search our contact mailbox and available logs for a request sent through the Contact page. Public records held by Alabama, Madison County, or a city remain under the control of the relevant custodian.


Updates to This Policy

Revisions will appear on this page. Continued use after a posted change signifies acceptance of the revised policy.
