Privacy Policy

This policy explains the limited information Frankfort Residents Directory receives, how it may be used, and the choices available to visitors. No account is required. The site points to public rolls and historical collections for Frankfort, Illinois, but does not host those government records or create a resident profile about you.

Information You Submit

A name, telephone number, or address entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that supplies those results. Our servers do not retain a copy of that search. When you contact us, we receive the details in your message and use them to answer you.


Information Collected Automatically

Routine hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. We review aggregate patterns to maintain the site and understand page use. Basic analytics and, when present, advertising measurement may rely on cookies or similar tools.


How We Use Information

Information supports site operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and page improvements. We neither sell lists of visitors nor assemble profiles about individual readers.


Outside Websites and Tools

Links lead to Will County and Illinois record portals, archives, library collections, and outside search services. Information submitted on those sites is governed by their policies. The same rule applies to sponsored results supplied by a third party.


When Information Is Shared

Hosting and support providers process server logs on our behalf. Analytics or advertising services may receive the automatic information described above. Other disclosure occurs only when valid legal process requires it.


Safeguarding Your Information

Encrypted connections protect data in transit, and logs are retained only as long as needed for the stated uses. Because this site has no user accounts, it stores no visitor password or account profile.


Visitors Under 18

This service is intended for adults, not children. We do not knowingly gather personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so it can be removed.


Your Privacy Choices

Rights to access, correct, or delete website-held data depend on the law that applies to you. Illinois's Personal Information Protection Act, 815 ILCS 530, mainly addresses breach notification; the official sources reviewed did not establish a general Illinois consumer deletion right. Since we retain little information, a request generally means checking contact messages and available logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Records held by an Illinois, Will County, township, or village custodian remain outside our control, so corrections or removals must go to that office.


Changes to This Policy

Revisions will appear on this page. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
