Information You Submit
A name, telephone number, or address entered in a search form is sent 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 included in your message and use them to answer you.
Information Collected Automatically
Our hosting systems create routine logs that may include an IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps. Aggregated log data helps us maintain the service and see which resources visitors use. Cookies or similar tools may also support basic analytics and advertising measurement where applicable.
How We Use Data
The limited data described here supports site operations, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and content improvements. We neither sell a visitor list nor create individual user profiles.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Chattanooga, Hamilton County, or Tennessee government portals, library collections, and outside search providers. Information entered on an external service is controlled by that service's privacy policy. The same is true for sponsored search results, which come from a third-party company.
Who May Process Data
Hosting and support vendors process server logs for us. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic information already described. Data may also be disclosed when valid legal process requires it; we do not otherwise distribute visitor information.
How We Protect Your Data
An encrypted connection serves the site. Logs are retained only as long as needed for the stated purposes. Because Chattanooga People Search offers no user accounts, it holds no account password or profile for a visitor.
Users Under 18
Chattanooga People Search is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so it can be removed.
Your Data Rights
The Tennessee Information Protection Act, Tenn. Code Ann. title 47, chapter 18, part 33, may give eligible Tennessee consumers rights to access, correct, delete, or obtain covered personal data and to opt out of certain processing. The Act applies only when its business and data thresholds are met. We can check our contact mailbox and server logs for a request submitted through the Contact page. Official records held by Chattanooga, Hamilton County, or Tennessee agencies remain outside our control, so questions about those records must go to the custodian.
Updates to This Policy
A revised policy will be posted here when our practices change. Using the site after an update indicates acceptance of the revised terms.
