Privacy Policy

This policy explains the limited information Fairfax Residents Directory receives and how it is handled. The service is a private reference to public record sources in Fairfax, Virginia. It does not require an account and does not host government records about visitors or residents.

Information You Send

If you contact us, we receive the name, email address, and message you choose to send. Do not include Social Security numbers, financial information, medical details, or other sensitive material in a message.

Automatically Collected Details

Like most sites, our server and service providers may receive technical data such as browser type, approximate device information, IP address, referring page, and pages requested. This data helps operate, secure, and diagnose the service.

How We Use Data

We use the limited information received to reply to messages, keep the service working, investigate misuse, and understand basic site performance. We do not sell contact messages as a separate product.

External Services

Links and search tools may lead to government portals or third-party services. Their collection, cookies, pricing, and privacy practices are controlled by their own policies, not this policy.

Who Can Receive Data

Service providers may process technical data as needed to host, secure, or maintain the service. We may also disclose information when law requires it, to protect people or property, or to investigate abuse.

Security Practices

We use reasonable safeguards for the small amount of information involved. No internet transmission or storage system is completely secure, so avoid sending sensitive information through a contact message.

Visitors Under 18

The service is not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. Contact us if you believe a child submitted personal information so it can be reviewed.

Your Privacy Choices

You may ask about, correct, or request deletion of personal data we hold about you through the Contact page. Virginia's Consumer Data Protection Act, Va. Code ยงยง59.1-571 through 59.1-581, provides rights over covered businesses' personal data. Government records held by the City of Fairfax, Fairfax County, Virginia agencies, courts, or libraries are not controlled here; requests for those records go to their custodian.

Policy Changes

We may revise this policy by publishing an updated version here. Continued use after publication is subject to the revised policy.
