Information You Submit
Text entered in a search form, such as a name, phone number, or address, goes to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a separate copy of those searches. When you contact us, we receive the details you choose to send and use them to answer the message.
Information Collected Automatically
Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, visited pages, and time stamps. Aggregate use helps us maintain the site and learn which resources visitors use. Cookies or similar tools may also support basic traffic analysis and, where used, advertising measurement.
What We Do With This Data
This limited data supports site operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and page improvements. We neither sell visitor lists nor create individual user profiles.
Privacy on Linked Services
Madera People Search links to government portals, Madera County and California offices, library collections, and third-party search tools. Information sent to one of those services falls under that service's privacy policy. The same is true for sponsored results supplied by an outside company.
Limited Data Sharing
Hosting and support vendors process server logs for us. Analytics or advertising providers may receive the automatic data already described. We may also disclose data when valid legal process requires it, but do not otherwise distribute visitor information.
Data Safeguards and Retention
An encrypted connection protects traffic to the site. Server logs are kept only as long as needed for the uses stated above. Since visitors do not create accounts, Madera People Search holds no account password or user profile.
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 California Privacy Rights
The California Consumer Privacy Act, Civil Code section 1798.100 et seq., may provide rights to know about, correct, or delete personal information covered by that law. Because we hold little visitor data, a request usually involves checking contact messages and available server logs. Use the Contact page to submit one. Public records controlled by the City of Madera, Madera County, or California agencies remain outside our control, so requests about those records must go to the responsible custodian.
Updates to This Policy
Any revised policy will appear on this page. Using the site after a revision takes effect signifies acceptance of the new version.
