Privacy Policy

This policy describes the limited data handled by Norfolk Residents Directory and the choices available to visitors. Norfolk Residents Directory is a private reference to public records and historical collections in Norfolk, Nebraska. It does not require an account and does not maintain a personal directory of visitors.

Information You Provide

A name, telephone number, or address entered into a search form is sent to the outside provider that supplies those results. Norfolk Residents Directory does not retain a separate copy of those search terms. If you contact us, the message and contact details you choose to send are used to respond.


Automatic Technical Data

Hosting systems may log routine details such as an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and visit time. We review that information in aggregate to maintain the service and understand general traffic. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics or advertising measurement where used.


How Limited Data Is Used

Limited data helps operate the reference, diagnose faults, measure broad readership, and improve content. We do not sell lists of visitors or create individualized visitor profiles.


External Services and Links

Norfolk Residents Directory links to county and state portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search services. Each outside service applies its own privacy terms to information submitted there. That includes sponsored search results provided by another company.


Service Providers and Disclosure

Hosting and support providers may process the operational logs described above. Analytics or advertising partners can receive applicable automatic data. We disclose information only when a valid legal process requires disclosure.


Security Practices

The service uses an encrypted connection, and operational logs are retained only for the purposes described here. The reference has no visitor accounts, passwords, or visitor profiles to maintain.


Visitors Under 18

This reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a visitor under 18. If a minor has sent information to us, contact us so it can be removed.


Your Privacy Requests

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to ask about access, correction, or deletion of personal data a website holds. Research did not identify a Nebraska statewide consumer-privacy statute creating a general deletion right. Because we retain very little, a request normally means reviewing the contact mailbox and applicable server logs, then removing information found there when appropriate. Use the Contact page to ask. Records held by Nebraska, Madison County, or Norfolk custodians remain under those offices’ control. Nebraska Public Records Law, Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 84-712 through 84-712.09, provides an access route for existing public records; it does not require a custodian to rewrite a lawful historic record.


Changes to This Policy

Revisions will appear here. Continued use after a revision indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
