Fayette County Property Records Privacy Policy

This policy describes the limited information connected with a visit to Fayette County Property Records and the choices available to you. The site provides links and explanations for public property-record searches; it does not ask visitors to create an account. Information entered into a third-party search tool is handled under that provider’s own privacy terms.

Information You Submit

When you enter an address or owner name into a search box, the information is sent to the outside provider that supplies the results. This site does not retain a separate search history on its own server. If you contact the site operator, the information in your message is used to respond to that request.


Routine Website Logs

The hosting service may record ordinary technical log details such as an IP address, browser type, pages requested, and time of access. These records support site operation and aggregated traffic review. Cookies or similar tools may be used for basic analytics and, when applicable, advertising measurement.


How Information Is Used

Technical and message information helps operate the pages, diagnose errors, understand general traffic, and make the reference easier to use. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual user profiles.


County Portals and External Services

Links lead to Fayette County Clerk, Assessor, Sheriff’s Tax Office, GIS, and other government pages, as well as outside search services. Each service sets its own privacy practices. Information entered after leaving this site is governed by that provider, including the third-party company behind sponsored search results.


Service Providers and Disclosures

Hosting and support vendors may process the technical logs needed to serve the site. Analytics or advertising partners may receive the automatic information described above. Information may also be disclosed when valid legal process requires it.


Security and Retention

The site uses an encrypted connection. Technical logs are retained only for the operational and measurement needs described above. Because visitors do not create accounts, the site does not maintain an account password or personal profile.


Children’s Information

This reference is intended for adults rather than children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted information to the site operator, use the Contact page so it can be reviewed and removed where appropriate.


Requests About Information

Use the Contact page to ask about information submitted directly to this site. West Virginia’s personal-information breach-notification provisions appear in W. Va. Code §§46A-2A-101 et seq.; those provisions address certain security breaches and do not create a general right to remove a public deed or tax record. Public-record requests to county and state custodians are governed separately by the West Virginia Freedom of Information Act, W. Va. Code Chapter 29B, Article 1, subject to its exemptions. A request to correct or restrict a government record must go to the office that maintains it, not this website.


Policy Changes

When this notice is revised, the latest text will appear on this page. Continued visits after an update indicate acceptance of the revised notice.
