Information You Provide
Search-form entries, such as a name, phone number, or address, are sent to the provider that supplies those results. Queens Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those searches on its own servers. A message sent to us contains only the information included in that message and is used to respond.
Automatically Collected Details
Hosting services may record standard log data, including an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time of access. We use aggregate information to operate and improve the service. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics and, when present, advertising measurement.
How Information Is Used
Information is used to operate the service, address technical problems, measure aggregate traffic, and improve the reference material. We do not sell visitor lists or create profiles of individual visitors.
External Services
Links may lead to New York City record portals, court tools, archives, library collections, and third-party search services. Each destination applies its own privacy terms to submitted data. That includes any sponsored search result supplied by another company.
Limited Disclosure
Providers that host or support the service may process server logs on our behalf. Analytics and advertising partners can receive the automatic information described above. Information is otherwise disclosed only when valid legal process requires it.
Security Measures
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are kept only for the operational purposes described here. Because the site has no visitor accounts, it does not hold a visitor password or account profile.
Visitors Under 18
This service is intended for adults, not children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If a minor has sent information to us, contact us so it can be removed.
Your Information Choices
Depending on the data and the agency involved, New York's Personal Privacy Protection Law, Public Officers Law Article 6-A, may provide rights concerning state-agency personal information. For this private service, a request can be sent through the Contact page; we will check the contact mailbox and available logs and remove information where appropriate. Records held by New York City, Queens County, or New York State custodians remain under their own rules, including the New York Freedom of Information Law.
Policy Revisions
Any revised policy will appear here. Continued use after publication of a revision indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
