Information You Submit
A name, telephone number, or address entered into a search box is sent to the outside provider that supplies results. Bethlehem Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those searches on its own servers. If you contact us, the message itself is used only to respond.
Automatically Collected Details
Routine hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, visited pages, and timestamps. Those details are reviewed in aggregate to operate the service and understand page use. Cookies or similar tools can support basic analytics and, where used, advertising measurement.
How Limited Data Is Used
Limited data supports site operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and content improvements. Visitor lists are not sold, and individual reader profiles are not created.
External Services and Links
Links lead to county and state portals, library collections, archives, and outside search tools. Their own privacy policies govern any information submitted after leaving this site. The same applies to sponsored search results supplied by a third party.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Hosting and support providers process ordinary server logs for the site. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic information described above. Disclosure occurs when valid legal process requires it, and not otherwise.
Safeguarding Information
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the purposes described here. Because the site has no user accounts, it does not hold reader passwords or account profiles.
Visitors Under 18
This resource is intended for adults and is not directed to children. Personal information is not knowingly collected from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor may have sent information so it can be deleted.
Your Information Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information a website holds. Because little is retained here, a request generally involves checking the contact mailbox and server logs, then removing any responsive information. Use the Contact page to ask. Pennsylvania state, county, and City-held public records are outside our control, and correction requests belong with their actual custodian.
Policy Revisions
Changes to this policy will appear here. Continued use after a revision means acceptance of the updated policy.
