Privacy Policy

This policy explains the limited data handled by New Hope Residents Directory and the choices available to visitors. The reference has no user accounts and does not keep government records. It points to public-record sources and historical collections for New Hope, Minnesota.

Information You Submit

A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form is sent to the provider that supplies the results. New Hope Residents Directory does not retain a copy of those queries on its own servers. A message sent to the contact address contains only the information supplied in that message and is used to respond.


Automatic Technical Data

Hosting services create routine logs, including IP address, browser type, visited pages, and timestamps. Those records are reviewed in aggregate for security, basic operation, and page-use patterns. Cookies or similar tools can support analytics and, when used, advertising measurement.


How Limited Data Is Used

The limited data described here supports operation, diagnostics, aggregate traffic measurement, and improvements. Visitor lists are not sold, and the reference does not build individual user profiles.


External Services and Links

Links lead to county and state records portals, library collections, archives, and third-party search services. Their policies govern information submitted after leaving this reference. That includes sponsored search results supplied by another company.


Service Providers and Disclosure

Hosting and support providers process the server logs needed to operate the reference. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic technical data described above. Information is disclosed when valid legal process requires it, and not for unrelated purposes.


Safeguards and Retention

The reference uses an encrypted connection and retains logs only for the operational needs described above. No account, password, or visitor profile is created here.


Visitors Under 18

This reference is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If a minor has sent personal information, contact us so it can be deleted.


Your Privacy Requests

The Minnesota Consumer Data Privacy Act, Minnesota Statutes chapter 325M, provides consumer data rights for covered provisions. Because this reference retains very little, a request usually involves checking the contact mailbox and server logs, then removing applicable information. Use the Contact page to request that review. Minnesota, Hennepin County, and New Hope public records remain controlled by their own custodians and classifications, including the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act.


Policy Changes

A revised policy will be posted here. Continued use after a posted revision indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
