Information You Provide
Search Queries
When a name, location, or other query is entered into a search box, that query is sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information you provide may be kept long enough to respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.
