Privacy Policy

This policy describes the limited information San Rafael People Search receives, why it may be processed, and the choices available to visitors. No account is needed. This private reference site helps readers locate public records in San Rafael, California, but it does not maintain a personal-record database about its users.

Information You Submit

Text entered in a search form, such as a name, phone number, or address, goes to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a separate copy of those searches. When you send us a message, we receive the details you chose to provide and use them to answer you.


Information Collected Automatically

Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, visited pages, and timestamps. We review that information in aggregate to maintain the site and learn which resources are useful. Cookies or similar tools may also support basic analytics and, when applicable, advertising measurement.


What We Do With This Data

The limited data described above helps us operate the site, diagnose errors, assess traffic, and improve the 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.


When Data May Be Shared

Companies that host or support the site process logs on our behalf. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic information noted above, and we may disclose data when valid legal process requires it. Visitor information is not otherwise shared.


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 Privacy Choices

California residents may have rights to know, correct, or delete covered personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act. Because we retain little, a request usually involves checking contact messages and available server logs. Submit one through the Contact page. Public records held by San Rafael, Marin County, or California agencies remain under the control of those custodians, so a correction or removal request for an official record must go to the agency that keeps it.


Updates to This Policy

Any revision will appear on this page. If you continue using the site after an update, the revised policy will apply.
