Information You Submit
Names, phone numbers, and addresses entered into a search form are sent to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Beaumont Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those searches on its own servers. A message sent to us contains only the information included in that message, which we use to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Like most hosted services, the site’s host logs technical details such as IP address, browser type, page requests, and timestamps. We review that data in aggregate to maintain the service and understand general use. Cookies or similar tools can support basic analytics and advertising measurement where applicable.
How Limited Data Is Used
We use the limited data described here to run the service, resolve technical problems, measure aggregate traffic, and improve its reference pages. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
Links Beyond Our Service
Beaumont Residents Directory links to county and Texas records portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search services. The privacy policy of the destination controls data submitted there. That includes sponsored search results supplied by a third-party company.
Service Providers and Disclosures
Hosting and support providers process the server logs needed to operate the service. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic information described above. We disclose information only when valid legal process requires it.
Safeguards
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the purposes stated above. Because there are no accounts, the service does not hold a visitor password or user profile that could be exposed.
Visitors Under 18
This reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. Contact us if you believe a minor has submitted information so it can be removed.
Your Privacy Choices
The Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, effective July 1, 2024, gives covered-business consumers rights concerning access, correction, deletion, and certain opt-outs. Because Beaumont Residents Directory keeps very little personal data, a request normally involves checking the contact mailbox and relevant server logs, then removing what is found. Use the Contact page to ask. The Act does not apply to Texas government entities, and a public record held by a Texas, Jefferson County, or Beaumont custodian must be addressed to that office under its own legal rules.
Policy Changes
Any revision will appear here. Continuing to use the service after a posted revision means accepting the updated policy.
