Information You Submit
A third-party provider receives any name, phone number, or address entered in a search form. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. When you contact us, we receive the contents of that message and use them to answer.
Automatic Technical Data
Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, requested pages, and time of access. We review combined traffic patterns to maintain the service and understand page use. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may rely on cookies or similar tools.
How Data Is Used
The limited data supports site operation, troubleshooting, traffic counts, and page improvements. We neither sell visitor lists nor create individual user profiles.
Privacy on Linked Services
McLean County portals, Illinois agencies, libraries, archives, and outside search providers set their own privacy terms. Their policies apply after you follow a link or use sponsored results.
Who Might See Your Data
The service providers that host and support the site process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We disclose data when a valid legal process requires it, and not otherwise.
How We Protect Your Data
The site runs over an encrypted connection and logs are kept only as long as the purposes above need them. There are no accounts here, so no password or profile of yours exists on this site to be exposed.
Users Under 18
The site is meant for adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18; if you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Privacy Choices
Illinois has record-specific protections, including the Biometric Information Privacy Act, Personal Information Protection Act, FOIA exemptions, election-data limits, and the Address Confidentiality Program. No universal Illinois data-broker deletion portal was identified as enacted in the project research. Ask through the Contact page to access, correct, or delete data we hold; we will check contact messages and server logs. Records held by Illinois, McLean County, or Normal remain under the control of their custodians.
Policy Changes
Revisions will appear here. Continued use after a posted revision signifies acceptance of the updated policy.
