Privacy Policy

This policy describes information collected during a visit, the purposes for which it is used, and the limited circumstances in which another party may receive it. By using the website, you accept these practices.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search Queries

A name or location entered in a search box is sent directly to the outside company operating that tool. The provider processes the request and delivers its results. We do not keep a separate log of those terms.

Messages and Contact Submissions

An email may be retained long enough to answer and maintain the related correspondence. It remains within our organization unless disclosure is legally required.

Data We Gather Automatically

Standard technical information may be recorded when a page loads:

  • Page-view times and the pages visited
  • Device category and operating system
  • Browser type and version
  • Device IP address
  • Visit duration for each page
  • Referring website, when one is supplied

Cookies and Analytics

Cookies are small device files used to understand traffic patterns, popular pages, and points where visits end. Analytics services combine that activity into reports. Browser controls can block cookies, although doing so may change how some features work.

What We Do With This Data

  • Route a search request to the selected partner
  • Maintain reliable and responsive website service
  • Detect and repair technical faults
  • Measure which material visitors use
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

No Criminal-Record Data on File

We do not maintain, assemble, or sell a database of personal criminal records. Greenwood County guidance directs readers to the sheriff, criminal courts, South Carolina Law Enforcement Division, and South Carolina Sex Offender Registry Tool. Visitor data is not turned into a third-party record or consumer report, and this website is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Third-Party Search Partners

Outside companies power the search boxes. Their privacy policies, retention periods, and disclosure practices govern information submitted to them. Review the applicable partner policy before using a tool because those choices are beyond our control.

Links to Other Websites

Links may lead to sheriff, court, state-agency, legal-aid, and outside search services. Once a visitor leaves this website, the destination's policy applies. Read it before providing personal information.

Certain advertising partners may track your activity across sites to show targeted ads. That tracking runs on their systems, not ours.

Who Might See Your Data

We do not sell personal data. Some information may end up with:

  • Analytics providers measuring traffic and performance
  • Search partners processing a submitted query
  • Advertising networks serving page ads
  • Government or law-enforcement bodies acting under a valid legal requirement

How We Protect Your Data

Reasonable, standard safeguards protect information in our control. No internet system can be guaranteed secure, so we cannot promise that unauthorized access will never occur.

Users Under 18

The website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. Information identified as belonging to a minor will be deleted.

Your Data Rights

Applicable South Carolina consumer-protection law, including the South Carolina Unfair Trade Practices Act in S.C. Code Title 39, Chapter 5, may affect particular rights. Subject to applicable law, you may:

  • Request correction of inaccurate personal data
  • Ask what personal information is held
  • Seek deletion when applicable law permits it
  • Decline certain processing where a legal right applies

Updates to This Policy

Future revisions will appear here with a replacement effective date. Continued use after an update means the revised policy applies.

Effective date: August 8, 2026
