Information You Send
Names, phone numbers, and addresses entered into a search form are sent to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Brentwood Residents Directory does not keep a copy of those search entries on its own servers. If you contact the operator, the mailbox receives the details included in your message and uses them to answer it.
Routine Technical Logs
Hosting systems may record an IP address, browser information, pages requested, and timestamps. Those ordinary logs help identify broken links, measure page use in aggregate, and protect the service. Cookies or similar tools may be used for basic analytics or advertising measurement when a provider supplies them.
How Information Is Used
Information is used to operate the reference, troubleshoot technical problems, understand general traffic, and improve the pages. The operator does not sell a visitor list or create an individual profile from the public-record topics someone reads.
External Record Portals
Links lead to Contra Costa and California record offices, libraries, archives, courts, and other service providers. Their own privacy terms govern anything submitted after leaving this reference. The same applies to sponsored search results, which are provided by a separate company.
Who Receives Technical Data
Hosting and support vendors may process server logs to keep the pages available. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic information described above. Information may also be disclosed when valid legal process requires it. It is not disclosed for unrelated purposes.
Security and Retention
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the operational purposes that require them. There are no user accounts here, so the service does not hold a password or personal profile that can be exposed through an account breach.
People Under 18
Brentwood Residents Directory is intended for adults and is not directed to children. The operator does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent information, a message through the Contact page can request its deletion.
California Privacy Choices
For covered businesses, the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, including Civil Code section 1798.100 and following provisions, can provide rights to know or access, correct, delete, limit certain sensitive-information uses, and opt out of sale or sharing, subject to exceptions. The Delete Act provisions in Civil Code sections 1798.99.80 and following created the DROP route for registered data brokers; the official program describes broker processing cycles beginning August 1, 2026.
Because this reference keeps very little, an access, correction, or deletion request usually involves checking the contact mailbox and available server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Records held by California, Contra Costa County, or Brentwood offices are outside the operator's control; requests about those records belong with the custodian, not this reference.
Changes to This Policy
If the data practices or this policy change, a revised version will be posted here. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised terms.
