Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form is sent to the independent provider that supplies the result. Beverly Residents Directory does not keep a copy of those search entries on its own servers. If you contact us, we use the contents of the message to respond.
Routine Technical Data
Hosting systems may create ordinary logs, such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and times of access. We review that information in aggregate to maintain the service and understand readership. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics and, when used, advertising measurement.
What We Do With This Data
We use this limited data to operate the service, resolve technical issues, measure traffic, and improve the reference material. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
Links to Other Websites
Links can take visitors to Beverly, Essex County, Massachusetts, library, archive, and independent search resources. Their policies govern information provided after leaving this service, including material submitted through sponsored search results.
Who Might See Your Data
Hosting and support providers process server logs on our behalf. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic information described above. We share information only when valid legal process requires disclosure or a service provider needs it to perform its role.
How We Protect Your Data
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the purposes described here. Because there are no visitor accounts, Beverly Residents Directory does not maintain a password or member profile that can be exposed.
Visitors Under 18
This reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. Contact us if a minor has sent information so it can be removed.
Your Data Rights
Depending on where a visitor lives, there may be rights to request access, correction, or deletion of personal data a service holds. Massachusetts public-records requests are governed by M.G.L. c.66 §10 and the exemptions in M.G.L. c.4 §7 cl.26, but records held by a state, county, or Beverly custodian are outside our control. Because we retain little visitor information, a request normally involves a review of contact messages and available logs. Use the Contact page to ask.
Updates to This Policy
Changes will appear on this policy page. Continued use after a posted change indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
