Information You Submit
When you use a search box, the text you enter, such as a property address or owner name, is sent to the third-party search service that supplies its results. Monroe County Property Records does not operate the State Auditor's public real-property form or the County Clerk's records system. If you contact this site, the message and any details you choose to include are used to respond to that inquiry.
Information Collected During a Visit
Web hosting ordinarily processes technical log details such as an internet address, browser information, requested pages, and timestamps. These details may be used in aggregate to diagnose faults and understand site traffic. Cookies or similar technologies may also support analytics or advertising measurement where those services are enabled.
How Information Is Used
Information described in this policy supports basic site operation, maintenance, traffic measurement, and page improvement. We do not sell visitor lists or create individual visitor profiles through this reference site.
County and Third-Party Links
Links on these pages lead to Monroe County offices, West Virginia records systems, and third-party search services. Information entered on an outside site is handled under that provider's privacy terms. Sponsored results are supplied by a separate company, not by the County Clerk, Assessor, or Tax Office.
Service Providers and Disclosures
Hosting and support vendors may process technical logs as part of keeping the site available. Analytics or advertising providers may receive the automatic information described above when their tools are active. Information may also be disclosed when valid legal process requires it.
Security and Retention
The site uses an encrypted connection for pages served over HTTPS. Technical logs should be retained only for the operational purposes described here and for the period needed to meet them. Because the site has no visitor account feature, it does not maintain a user password or account profile.
Children's Information
This reference is intended for adults and is not designed for children under 18. We do not knowingly seek personal information from minors. If a minor has sent information through the site's contact route, ask us to remove it using the Contact page.
Your Choices and Public-Record Requests
Depending on applicable law, you may be able to ask about personal information a website holds, or request that it be corrected or deleted. The research reviewed for this county build did not identify a West Virginia consumer-privacy statute to cite here. Use the Contact page for a request about information submitted to this site. Public deeds, tax records, and assessment data held by Monroe County or West Virginia offices are controlled by those custodians; request correction or restricted access from the office that maintains the record. The West Virginia Freedom of Information Act, W.Va. Code ยง29B-1-3, governs qualifying public-record requests, not this site's privacy practices.
Policy Revisions
A revised policy will appear on this page with its updated terms. Continued use after a revision takes effect indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
