Information You Send
A name, phone number, or address entered in a search form is sent to the outside provider that supplies the result. Reston Residents Directory does not retain a separate copy of those search entries. If you contact us, the message and its contact details are used to respond.
Automatically Collected Details
Like most hosted services, the site receives routine server-log information such as an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and timestamps. Aggregate use helps maintain the service and understand page traffic. Cookies or comparable tools may support basic analytics or advertising measurement.
What We Do With This Data
That limited data is used to operate the service, address technical issues, measure overall traffic, and improve the reference pages. Visitor lists are not sold, and the site does not create profiles of individual users.
Links to Other Websites
Links may lead to Fairfax County and Virginia portals, libraries, archives, and outside search tools. The policy of the destination controls what happens to information submitted there. Sponsored results are supplied by an outside company and follow that company’s practices.
Who Might See Your Data
Hosting and support providers process logs for the service. Analytics or advertising partners can receive the automatic information described above. Information is disclosed when valid legal process requires it and not for unrelated purposes.
How We Protect Your Data
The service uses an encrypted connection, and logs are retained only for the needs described here. Because visitor accounts are not offered, no user password or account profile is stored by Reston Residents Directory.
Users Under 18
The site is meant for adults and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18; if you believe a minor has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Data Rights
Virginia's Consumer Data Protection Act, Va. Code §§59.1-571 through 59.1-581.1, can provide qualifying consumers rights to confirm, access, correct, delete, obtain portability, or use certain opt-outs, subject to the statute's scope and exemptions. A request to this service can be sent through the Contact page; the limited mailbox and log information will be reviewed. Public records held by Fairfax County, Virginia, or another custodian remain outside this service’s control and must be addressed to that custodian.
Updates to This Policy
Policy changes are posted here. Continued use after a posted change indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
