Information You Submit
A name, phone number, or address entered into a search form is sent to the outside provider that supplies the results; Brockton Residents Directory does not retain a separate copy of those searches. If you contact us, we receive the contents of your message and use them to respond.
Automatic Technical Data
Hosting services may create ordinary server logs, including IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. We review this information in aggregate to maintain the service and understand page use. Basic analytics or advertising measurement may rely on cookies or comparable technologies.
How Limited Data Is Used
The limited data supports operation, troubleshooting, traffic measurement, and content improvements. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles.
External Links and Search Providers
Links may lead to Brockton, Plymouth County, or Massachusetts records portals, library collections, archives, and outside search tools. The policy of the destination controls any information you submit there. That includes sponsored-result services supplied by another company.
Service Providers and Disclosure
Providers that host or support the service may process server logs. Analytics and advertising partners can receive the automatic information described above. Information is disclosed when valid legal process requires it and otherwise only as described here.
Safeguards and Retention
The service uses an encrypted connection and retains logs only for the purposes described here. Because there are no accounts, the service does not hold visitor passwords or account profiles.
Visitors Under 18
The service is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If you believe a minor sent information to us, contact us so it can be removed.
Your Information Requests
Depending on your location, you may have rights to ask for access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data a service holds. As of August 25, 2026, research found no enacted comprehensive Massachusetts consumer data-privacy statute; proposals remained legislative developments rather than an enacted broad statute. Because this service retains little information, a request normally involves the contact mailbox and applicable server logs. Use the Contact page to ask. Government records held by Brockton, Plymouth County, or Massachusetts custodians are outside our control, and a correction or removal request belongs with that custodian.
Policy Changes
We may post a revised policy on this page. Continued use after a posted change means you accept the revised policy.
