Information You Send Directly
If you contact us, the message may include your name, email address, and the information you choose to provide. Use only the information needed to explain a correction, technical problem, or question. Do not send Social Security numbers, account details, protected addresses, vital-record applications, or other sensitive material through a general contact route.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most web services, hosting and security systems may process basic technical details such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring address, pages requested, and time of access. Those details help operate the service, prevent abuse, diagnose faults, and understand aggregate traffic. They are not used to create a consumer report or a resident profile.
How Information Is Used
Limited contact and technical information is used to reply to messages, maintain the service, investigate misuse, protect security, and improve the reference. It is not sold as a resident list. We do not use contact submissions to make decisions about a person’s eligibility, identity, or character.
Links to Other Services
Links lead to Oakland County, White Lake Township, Michigan, library, archive, postal, and other outside sources. Those services control their own practices, forms, cookies, and records. Review the privacy notice of each destination before submitting information there. A link does not make this private reference responsible for the destination’s content or data handling.
Who May Receive Information
Information may be processed by providers that host, secure, or support the service, and may be disclosed when law requires it or when disclosure is reasonably needed to protect users, the public, or the service. We do not disclose contact information for unrelated marketing purposes. Government records linked from this reference remain under the control of their original custodian.
Safeguards and Retention
Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to limit access to the information handled by the service. No online system is fully risk-free. Keep contact messages brief and avoid sending sensitive records. Information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose described here, legal obligations, security, or dispute resolution.
Visitors Under 18
The service is not designed to collect personal information from children. A parent or guardian who believes a child supplied personal information may contact us to request review and deletion where applicable. Official vital, court, school, and other records have their own separate access laws and are not controlled by this service.
Your Data Choices
You may ask about personal information that you submitted through a contact route and request correction or deletion where it is reasonably possible. Because this service holds little direct personal information, the request will usually concern a contact message or technical record. Use the Contact page with enough detail to identify the submission. Michigan public records held by the township, Oakland County, or the State of Michigan are outside our control. Requests for those records go to the custodian under the applicable law, including Michigan FOIA, MCL 15.231 et seq., where it applies.
Policy Updates
This policy may change as the service, legal requirements, or supporting providers change. The current version will be posted here with its effective update. Continuing to use the reference after an update means the revised policy governs future use.
