Privacy Policy

This policy explains the limited data Tampa Residents Directory receives and the choices available to visitors. No account is required, and the site does not host personal records. It serves as a reference to public rolls and directory collections kept by Tampa, Hillsborough County, and Florida custodians.

Information You Submit

A third-party provider receives names, phone numbers, or addresses entered in sponsored search forms. Our servers do not retain a copy of those searches. When you send us a message, we use its contents only to respond.


Automatic Technical Data

Our hosting keeps ordinary server logs: IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and timestamps. We look at this in aggregate to keep the site healthy and to see which pages readers use. Cookies or similar technologies may support basic analytics and, where applicable, advertising measurement.


How the Data Is Used

Technical data helps operate the service, diagnose faults, measure traffic, and improve content. We neither sell visitor lists nor create profiles about individual readers.


Links to Other Websites

We link out to county and state records portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search tools. Their privacy policies, not ours, govern what you submit there. That is especially true of the sponsored search results, which a third-party company provides.


Who Might See Your Data

The service providers that host and support the site process server logs for us. Analytics and advertising partners may receive the automatic data described above. We disclose data when a valid legal process requires it, and not otherwise.


How We Protect Your Data

The site runs over an encrypted connection and logs are kept only as long as the purposes above need them. There are no accounts here, so no password or profile of yours exists on this site to be exposed.


Users Under 18

The site is meant for adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18; if you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.


Your Privacy Choices

Eligible Florida consumers may have rights under the Florida Digital Bill of Rights, sections 501.701 through 501.722, Florida Statutes, though that law applies only to qualifying large controllers. Because we keep little information, a request generally requires checking contact messages and server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Public records held by Florida, Hillsborough County, or Tampa offices remain under the control of those custodians.


Updates to This Policy

Any change to this policy will be posted on this page. Using the site after a change means you accept the updated version.
