Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains the limited data handled by St. Louis Residents Directory and the choices available to visitors. The site is a private reference to St. Louis County records and historical collections. It does not require an account and does not host government records about visitors.

Information You Submit

A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form is passed to the provider that supplies the resulting service; our servers do not retain a copy of those queries. If you contact us, we receive the information in your message and use it to respond.


Automatic Technical Data

Hosting services may create ordinary logs, including IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. Aggregate information helps operate and maintain the service. Cookies or similar technology may also support basic analytics or advertising measurement where used.


How Limited Data Is Used

Technical data is used to operate the service, diagnose problems, understand aggregate traffic, and improve reference pages. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor 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.


Service Providers and Disclosures

Hosting and support providers process logs on our behalf, while analytics or advertising providers may receive the automatic data described above. Information is disclosed only when valid legal process requires it.


Data Safeguards

The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the purposes described here. Because there are no visitor accounts, the service does not hold a visitor password or account profile.


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

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, or deletion of personal data a private service keeps. The research did not identify a generally applicable Missouri consumer-privacy statute to cite for this private reference. Because the service retains little visitor data, a request normally concerns the contact mailbox or limited server logs; use the Contact page. Government records held by Missouri, St. Louis County, or municipal custodians are outside our control. Those records follow the Missouri Sunshine Law, RSMo Chapter 610, and any record-specific confidentiality rule.


Policy Updates

Updates will appear on this page. Continuing to use the service after an update means you accept the revised policy.
