Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the independent provider that supplies the resulting service. Taunton Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those search entries. If you contact us, we receive the details included in your message and use them to respond.
Automatically Collected Details
Routine hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, requested pages, and timestamps. These details are reviewed in aggregate for maintenance and usage patterns. Cookies or comparable tools can support basic analytics and, where present, advertising measurement.
How Information Is Used
Information supports site operation, error correction, traffic measurement, and improvements to the reference material. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
External Services
Links lead to Massachusetts and local record portals, library collections, archives, and independent search services. The policy of the destination service governs data submitted there, including information entered through sponsored results.
Information Shared With Providers
Hosting and support providers may process logs on our behalf. Analytics and advertising providers can receive the automatic data described above. Information is disclosed when valid legal process requires it, and otherwise only as needed for these services.
Data Safeguards
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the purposes described above. Because no account system is offered, Taunton Residents Directory does not hold a visitor password or profile.
Visitors Under 18
This service is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if you believe a minor has sent information, and it will be removed.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to seek access, correction, or deletion of personal data a website holds. The research available for this project did not identify an enacted Massachusetts general consumer-privacy or data-broker deletion statute to cite as a one-stop process. Because we retain little, requests normally involve the contact mailbox and available server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Massachusetts Public Records Law, M.G.L. c. 66, ยง10, concerns government custodians, so requests about their public records must go to the office that holds them.
Policy Revisions
Changes to this policy will appear here. Continued use after a revision indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
