Privacy Policy

This policy describes the limited data Tacoma People Search receives, why it is processed, and the choices available to visitors. No account is required. The site points to public records in Tacoma, Washington, but it does not keep government records or build a personal record about you.

Information You Submit

Text entered in a search form, such as a name, phone number, or address, goes to the outside provider that supplies those results. Our servers do not retain a separate copy of the query. When you contact us, we receive the details you choose to send and use them to answer your message.


Data We Gather Automatically

Our host creates routine logs that can include an IP address, browser type, visited pages, and timestamps. Aggregated log data helps us maintain the site and see which resources are useful. Cookies or related tools may support basic analytics and advertising measurement where those services apply.


How the Data Is Used

We process this limited data to run the service, diagnose faults, measure visits, and improve content. We neither sell a visitor list nor create individual user profiles.


Links to Other Websites

This site links to government portals, county and state records offices, library collections, and third-party search tools. Each of those sites has its own privacy policy, and data you submit there is governed by their rules, not ours. This is especially true of the sponsored search results on this site, which are provided by a third-party company.


Who Might See Your Data

Service providers that host and support this site process server logs on our behalf. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We will disclose data if a valid legal process requires it. We do not otherwise share visitor data.


How We Protect Your Data

The site is served over an encrypted connection. We retain server logs only as long as needed for the purposes above. Because we do not run accounts, there is no password or profile of yours to breach on this site.


Users Under 18

This site is not directed at children and is intended for users 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information to us, contact us and we will delete it.


Your Data Rights

Your location may provide rights to access, correct, or delete personal data held by a website. No general Washington data-broker registry or universal deletion statute was verified in the project research, so we do not promise a statewide deletion process. We can check our contact mailbox and available logs for data we control. Use the Contact page for a request. Records held by Tacoma, Pierce County, or Washington agencies remain under the custodian's control.


Updates to This Policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
