Information You Provide
If you contact us, we may receive the name, email address, and message you choose to send. Please do not include vital-record identifiers, account numbers, government identification numbers, or another person's sensitive information in a message.
Automatic Technical Data
Like most sites, we and service providers may receive standard technical details such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages requested, referral information, and time of visit. This information helps operate, protect, and measure the service.
How We Use Information
Information may be used to respond to a message, maintain security, diagnose performance problems, prevent misuse, and improve the directory reference. We do not use the site as a public repository for submitted personal records.
Links to External Services
Town of Newburgh Residents Directory links to government portals, libraries, archives, and search tools. Those destinations have their own policies, forms, access rules, and data practices. Review their notices before submitting information to them.
When Data May Be Shared
We may use vendors that help host, secure, analyze, or support the site, subject to their service role. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or to investigate abuse. We do not sell contact messages as public records.
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used, but no internet transmission or storage method is fully secure. Use the official Town, County, state, court, or archive channel for any record request that requires identity proof or an eligibility document.
Visitors Under 18
This reference is not directed to children. If a parent or guardian believes a child sent personal information through the site, contact us so the matter can be reviewed.
Privacy Choices and Record Rights
Contact us about information you submitted directly. Rights and correction procedures for government records belong with their custodians. New York Freedom of Information Law, Public Officers Law Article 6, §§84–90, controls access to eligible public agency records, but does not override protections for vital records, confidential voter data, DMV records, sealed court material, library records, or Address Confidentiality Program addresses. New York does not provide a universal deletion right that erases accurate government land or voter records.
Policy Updates
We may revise this policy as the service or applicable requirements change. The current version will be posted here, and continued use after publication is subject to the updated policy.
