Privacy Policy

This policy describes what Oak Creek Residents Directory collects, how that information is handled, and the choices available to you. The private Wisconsin reference requires no user account and stores no public record about its readers.

Information You Submit

A name, phone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the outside provider that returns those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of that query. When you contact us, we receive the details in your message and use them to answer.


Information Collected Automatically

Standard hosting logs can include an IP address, browser type, requested pages, and timestamps. Aggregate use helps maintain the service and identify useful pages. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may rely on cookies or related technology.


How Information Is Used

Information supports site operation, problem diagnosis, traffic measurement, and page updates. We neither sell lists of visitors nor create personal profiles of readers.


Links to Other Websites

We link out to county and state records portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search tools. Their privacy policies, not ours, govern what you submit there. That is especially true of the sponsored search results, which a third-party company provides.


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

Your place of residence may give you rights to request access, correction, or deletion of personal data held by a website. The research did not identify a generally applicable Wisconsin comprehensive consumer-privacy statute, so no unsupported state citation is added. Because we keep little data, a request normally concerns our contact mailbox or server logs. Use the Contact page. Public records held by Wisconsin, Milwaukee County, or Oak Creek offices remain under those custodians' control.


Changes to This Policy

Revisions will appear on this page. Continued use after an update signifies acceptance of the revised policy.
