Information You Send Directly
Text entered into a name, phone, or address search is sent to the third-party provider that supplies the results. Daly City Residents Directory does not keep a copy of those search terms on its own servers. If you contact the operators, the message and any details included in it are used to read and answer the request.
Routine Technical Logs
Hosting systems may record an IP address, browser type, viewed pages, referring information, and timestamps. These logs help diagnose faults, measure aggregate use, and keep the service available. Basic cookies or similar tools may also support analytics or advertising measurement when those services are enabled.
How Limited Data Is Used
Information is used to operate the pages, identify technical problems, understand broad traffic patterns, and improve the reference. The operators do not sell visitor lists or intentionally build a personal profile of an individual reader from ordinary site use.
Links to Government and Other Sites
Pages link to San Mateo County ACRE, Daly City departments, California portals, courts, libraries, archives, and third-party search services. Once a link is followed, that provider's privacy statement and data practices govern the information submitted there. Sponsored search results are supplied by a third party and are outside the operators' control.
Who Can Receive Technical Data
Hosting, analytics, security, and advertising providers may process the ordinary technical information described above in order to provide their services. Information may also be disclosed when a valid legal process requires it. It is not otherwise shared as a visitor list.
Security and Retention
The pages are served over an encrypted connection, and technical logs are retained only for the operational purposes that require them. There are no user accounts here, so the service does not maintain a site password or personal profile that can be exposed through an account breach.
Visitors Under 18
The reference is intended for adults and is not directed to children. The operators do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent information, contact the operators so it can be reviewed and deleted when appropriate.
California Privacy Choices
California's Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, is codified in Civil Code ยงยง1798.100 et seq. Depending on the applicable coverage, it provides rights to know, access, correct, delete, opt out of sale or sharing, limit certain sensitive-information uses, and avoid discrimination for exercising a right. Publicly available government-record information is treated differently, and government agencies and many nonprofit functions are outside the law's covered-business scope.
California's DROP system, created under the DELETE Act, launched in 2026. It lets a consumer send one encrypted deletion request to more than 500 registered data brokers; broker deletion obligations began August 1, 2026. The current state route is privacy.ca.gov/drop.
Because this reference keeps little information, a request usually means checking the contact mailbox and available technical logs. Use the Contact page to ask for access, correction, or deletion of data held here. A request to remove a deed, court entry, voter record, or other public record must go to the San Mateo County, Daly City, California, or court custodian that holds it. Safe at Home questions belong with the California Secretary of State.
