Information You Submit
When you enter a name, phone number, or address in a search form, that entry goes to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Our own servers do not retain a copy of the search. A message sent through our contact channel contains whatever details you choose to provide, and we use those details only to answer you.
Information Collected Automatically
Our hosting systems create routine logs that can include an IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and time stamps. We review this information in aggregate to maintain the site and learn which resources visitors use. Cookies or comparable tools may also support basic analytics and advertising measurement where applicable.
How We Use Data
The information described above helps us run Orange County People Search, diagnose faults, assess traffic, and improve its pages. We neither sell a visitor list nor create individual user profiles.
Privacy on Linked Websites
Links may lead to Orange County and California government portals, records offices, library collections, and outside search services. Information entered on a linked site is controlled by that site's privacy policy rather than this one. The same rule applies to sponsored results, which an outside company provides.
Who May Receive Data
Vendors that host or support the site process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising providers may receive the automatically collected information described above. We may disclose information when valid legal process requires it, but otherwise do not share visitor data.
Safeguarding Your Data
An encrypted connection delivers the site. Server logs are kept only for as long as the stated purposes require. Because Orange County People Search has no user accounts, it holds no account password or member profile for you.
Visitors Under 18
Orange County People Search 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 submitted personal information, and we will remove it.
Your Privacy Choices
Your location may give you rights to access, correct, or delete personal data held by a website. Because we retain little, a request usually involves checking our contact mailbox and server logs and removing responsive data where required. Submit a request through the Contact page. California residents dealing with registered data brokers can also consult the official CPPA Data Broker Registry and DROP deletion portal. Those services concern participating registered data brokers, not records held by Orange County or California agencies. Requests to correct or restrict an official record must go to its government custodian and remain subject to applicable law.
Policy Changes
Any revised policy will appear on this page. Your continued use of Orange County People Search after a revision signifies acceptance of the updated policy.
