Privacy Policy

This policy describes the limited information Bentonville Residents Directory receives, how it is handled, and the choices available to visitors. No account is required. The site points to Bentonville, Benton County, and Arkansas public-record sources, but it does not host those government records or create a resident profile about you.

Information You Submit

A name, phone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the outside provider that supplies the results. Our servers do not retain a copy of those search terms. When you contact us, we receive the contents of your message and use them only to respond.


Information Collected Automatically

Standard hosting logs may record an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time of access. We review aggregate patterns to maintain the site and understand which material is useful. Basic analytics and advertising measurement may rely on cookies or comparable technology.


How Information Is Used

We use limited data to run the service, diagnose errors, measure visits, and improve content. We neither sell lists of visitors nor assemble individual user profiles.


Services Beyond Our Site

Links lead to Benton County and Arkansas portals, libraries, archives, and outside search services. Data sent after following a link is governed by that service's policy. The same rule applies to sponsored results, which are provided by a third party.


When Information Is Shared

Hosting and support providers process ordinary logs on our behalf. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic information described above. Information is also disclosed when valid legal process requires it.


Safeguards and Retention

An encrypted connection protects traffic in transit, and logs are retained only as long as needed for the stated purposes. Because visitors create no accounts, this service stores no account password or resident profile for them.


Users Under 18

This service is intended for adults, not children. If we learn that a person under 18 sent personal information directly to us, we will remove it after receiving notice through the Contact page.


Your Privacy Choices

Your place of residence may grant rights to access, correct, or delete personal information held by a website. Research did not verify a comprehensive effective Arkansas consumer-privacy or data-broker deletion statute, so no broader state right is claimed here. We can check our contact mailbox and server logs for data tied to a request sent through the Contact page. Arkansas, Benton County, and City of Bentonville public records remain under their custodians' control, and any correction or lawful restriction request must go to the office that maintains the source record.


Policy Changes

A revised policy will appear here. Continued use after publication of a revision constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
