Information You Submit
Text entered in a search form, such as a name, phone number, or address, goes to the outside search 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.
Automatically Collected Data
Our hosting systems create routine logs that may include an IP address, browser type, requested pages, and access times. Aggregate trends help us maintain the service and see which resources are useful. Cookies or similar tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where those functions apply.
How We Use Data
We use this limited information to run the service, diagnose errors, assess traffic, and improve content. We neither sell a visitor list nor create individual user profiles.
Privacy on Linked Services
Links may lead to Gastonia and Gaston County offices, North Carolina portals, court tools, library collections, or outside search services. Their own privacy notices govern information sent to them. Sponsored search results are also supplied by an outside company and follow that provider's rules.
Parties That Process Data
Hosting and support vendors process technical logs for us. Analytics or advertising providers may receive the automatic information described above. We may disclose information when valid legal process requires it, but we do not otherwise distribute visitor data.
Our Security Measures
An encrypted connection serves the site, and technical logs are kept only as long as needed for the stated uses. Because visitors do not create accounts, we hold no site password or personal profile for them.
Visitors Under Age 18
Gastonia People Search is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone younger than 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so we can remove it.
Your Privacy Choices
Your residence may give you rights to request access, correction, or deletion of personal data held by a website. North Carolina currently has no broad omnibus consumer-data deletion law, so rights may instead arise from other applicable law. We can check our contact mailbox and logs for the small amount we hold. Send a request through the Contact page. Records maintained by Gastonia, Gaston County, or North Carolina are outside our control and must be addressed with their custodian.
Policy Changes
Revisions will appear here when this policy changes. Using the service after an update indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
