Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered in a search box is sent to the third-party results provider. Town of Union Residents Directory does not keep its own copy of those queries. If you email us, we receive the details in that message and use them to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Like most hosted services, the site receives routine server-log information such as IP address, browser type, page requests, and timestamps. We review this in aggregate for reliability and readership patterns. Cookies or similar tools may be used for basic analytics and, where relevant, advertising measurement.
How Information Is Used
We use the limited information described here to operate the service, diagnose problems, measure aggregate traffic, and improve content. We do not sell visitor lists or build individual visitor profiles.
External Services
Links may lead to Town, county, state, library, archive, or third-party search services. Their privacy policies govern any information submitted after you leave this service. That includes sponsored search results supplied by a third party.
When Data Is Shared
Hosting and support providers process server logs for the service. Analytics and advertising partners can receive the automatic information described above. We otherwise disclose information only when valid legal process requires disclosure.
Security Practices
The service uses an encrypted connection, and routine logs are retained only for the operational purposes described here. There are no user accounts, passwords, or stored user profiles. New York General Business Law ยง899-BB requires reasonable safeguards for private information; that security rule does not turn government records into data held by this service.
Visitors Under 18
The service is intended for adults and does not target children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor sent information to us, contact us so it can be removed.
Your Information Requests
Depending on applicable law, you may ask about personal information a service keeps. Because Town of Union Residents Directory retains very little, a request normally concerns a contact message or routine log. Send it through the Contact page. Public records held by New York, Broome County, or Town of Union custodians are outside our control, and a correction or removal request for those records belongs with the office that maintains them.
Policy Changes
Updates will be posted here. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
