Data You Give Us Directly
Search boxes on this site send the name, phone number, or address you enter to the third-party provider that powers sponsored results. We do not keep a separate copy of those searches on our own servers. If you contact us, we receive the details you choose to send and use them to respond.
Data Collected Automatically
Our hosting and analytics systems may record standard technical data, such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps. We use this information in aggregate to keep pages working, diagnose errors, and understand which Garden Grove records pages visitors use most.
How We Use Information
We use the limited information described above to operate the site, respond to messages, measure traffic, and improve page content. We do not sell a list of visitors, and we do not build individual user profiles from local records searches.
Outside Website Links
Garden Grove People Search links to official city, county, court, state, library, archive, and sponsored search resources. Those sites are controlled by their own operators. Information submitted to Orange County Clerk-Recorder, Orange County Superior Court, the Registrar of Voters, CDPH, or a sponsored provider is governed by that site's policy, not ours.
Who May Process Data
Hosting providers, analytics providers, and advertising or sponsored-search partners may process the automatic data described in this policy. We may also disclose data when valid legal process requires it. We do not otherwise share visitor data outside the limited uses described here.
Security and Retention
The site is served over an encrypted connection. Server logs are retained only as long as needed for operations, security, and analytics. Because this site does not create visitor accounts, it does not maintain passwords or personal account profiles.
Users Under 18
This site is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent personal information to us, contact us so it can be deleted.
Your Data Rights
California residents may have privacy rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, as described by the California Attorney General and the California Privacy Protection Agency. Because Garden Grove People Search holds very little visitor data, most requests are limited to checking contact messages and server logs. Use the Contact page to make a privacy request. Public records held by Garden Grove, Orange County, California agencies, or courts are outside our control; removal or correction requests must go to the custodian office.
Policy Updates
If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted here. Continued use of the site after an update means the new policy applies.
