Privacy Policy

This policy describes the limited information Paducah Residents Directory receives, how it is handled, and the choices available to visitors. No account is required. The site points to public rolls and collections in Paducah, Kentucky, but does not keep its own resident database.

Information You Submit

A name, phone number, or address entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that supplies those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of the search. When you contact us, we receive the details in your message and use them only to respond.


Data We Gather 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.


How We Use Limited Data

Logs help us operate the service, repair errors, measure general traffic, and improve content. We neither sell lists of visitors nor create individual user profiles.


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

Your place of residence may give you rights to see, correct, or delete personal data that a website maintains. Kentucky does not supply a general consumer opt-out for records lawfully posted by public custodians in the research reviewed for this project. Because we retain little visitor information, a request usually involves checking contact mail and available server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Public records held by Kentucky, McCracken County, or Paducah offices remain under the control of those custodians.


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.
