Information You Submit
When a search form is used, the address or owner name entered is sent to the outside provider that supplies results. This site does not maintain a saved history of those searches on its own servers. A message sent through the contact route may include personal information, which is used to read and answer that request.
Information Collected During a Visit
Web hosting systems may record standard technical logs, including an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time of access. Aggregate information helps monitor service availability and understand which resources are useful. Basic analytics or advertising measurement may also use cookies or related technology where enabled.
How We Use Information
Technical information is used to operate the site, diagnose errors, review overall traffic, and improve the reference pages. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual user profiles.
External Portals and Search Services
Links on this site lead to Berkeley County Clerk, Assessor, Sheriff’s Tax Office, GIS, and other government resources, as well as third-party search providers. Each destination sets its own privacy practices. Information entered on a government or sponsored-results page is handled under that provider’s terms, not this policy.
Service Providers and Disclosures
Hosting and technical service providers process server information as needed to keep the site available. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the technical data associated with those services. Information may also be disclosed when valid legal process requires it.
Security and Retention
The site uses an encrypted connection, and technical logs are retained only as long as they serve the purposes described above. Because the site has no user accounts, it does not maintain account passwords or user profiles.
Children
This reference is intended for adults rather than children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent information through the contact route, notify us so it can be reviewed and removed where appropriate.
Your Information Requests
You may contact us to ask what information a message or technical interaction has provided to this site, or to request correction or removal of information held here. Because the site has no user accounts and retains little information, there may be nothing to retrieve. Use the Contact page for a site-related request. Government property records are held by their public-body custodians; West Virginia’s Freedom of Information Act, W.Va. Code §29B-1-3, directs a request for those records to the custodian. A request to this site cannot change an official county record.
Policy Changes
When the way the site handles information changes, an updated version will appear on this page. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
