Greenwood Privacy Policy

This policy describes information handling by Greenwood Residents Directory, a private reference to public-records and local-history sources. It does not govern the Greenwood County Clerk/ROD, Assessor, Probate Court, South Carolina agencies, the library, or another linked organization. Those custodians and service providers maintain their own privacy terms and legal duties.

Data You Give Us Directly

Search entries such as a name, phone number, or address are sent to the third-party provider that operates the result service; Greenwood Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those searches on its own servers. A message sent to the site contains only the information supplied in that message and is used to respond.


Data Collected Automatically

Hosting services may maintain routine logs, including IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps. These records are reviewed in aggregate for reliability and traffic measurement. Cookies or similar tools can support basic analytics and, where used, advertising measurement.


How Information Is Used

Information is used to operate, secure, repair, and improve the site and to understand aggregate readership. Visitor lists are not sold, and the site does not create individual visitor profiles.


Links and Outside Services

Greenwood records pages link to government portals, library and archive collections, and third-party search services. A linked organization’s own notice controls data submitted there, including information entered through sponsored results or an official custodian portal.


Service Providers and Disclosure

Hosting, analytics, and technical support providers may process the automatic information described above for site operations. Information may also be disclosed when required by valid legal process. It is not otherwise shared as a visitor database.


Security Practices

The site uses an encrypted connection, and routine logs are retained only for the operational purposes described here. Greenwood Residents Directory has no member accounts, passwords, or individual user profiles to maintain.


Users Under 18

This reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. Personal information from a person under 18 is not knowingly collected. If a minor has sent information through a contact channel, request deletion through the contact route.


Your Information Choices

South Carolina research did not identify a comprehensive consumer-privacy or universal data-broker deletion statute for this purpose. The state’s Family Privacy Protection Act, S.C. Code Ann. §§ 30-2-10 through 30-2-50, limits commercial-solicitation use of personal information obtained from public sources, but it does not transfer government records to this site. Requests about a public record belong with its custodian. Requests about limited site contact information may be made through Contact.


Updates to This Policy

Material changes will be posted here. Continuing to use Greenwood Residents Directory after an update signifies acceptance of the revised policy.
