Data You Send Directly
The search forms on this site send the name, phone number, or address you type to the third-party provider that powers sponsored results. We do not store a copy of those searches on our own servers. If you contact us, we receive the details you choose to include and use them to respond.
Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard server logs such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. We review this information in aggregate to keep the site stable and understand which pages are useful. Cookies or similar tools may be used for basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.
What We Do With This Data
We use the data described above to operate the site, diagnose technical issues, measure traffic, and improve pages. We do not sell a visitor list. We do not create personal profiles of individual users.
Links to Other Websites
This site links to Benton County offices, Arkansas agencies, court portals, library collections, and third-party search tools. Each destination has its own privacy policy, and data submitted there is governed by that site's rules. Sponsored search results are also provided by a third-party company, not by Benton County People Search.
Who May Process Data
Service providers that host and support this site process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We will disclose data if valid legal process requires it. We do not otherwise share visitor data.
How We Protect Your Data
The site is served over an encrypted connection. Server logs are retained only as long as needed for the purposes above. Because the site does not offer accounts, it does not hold a user password or member profile for you.
Users Under 18
This site is not directed at children and is intended for users 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information to us, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data a website holds about you. The research file did not identify a comprehensive Arkansas consumer-privacy statute that changes this site's limited data practices. Because we hold very little, most requests are narrow: we can search our contact mailbox and server logs and remove what we find. Use the Contact page to make a request. Public records held by Benton County, Arkansas agencies, courts, or local offices are outside our control; removal or correction requests for those records go to the custodian office.
Updates to This Policy
If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted here. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the updated policy.
