A name, location, or other term entered in a search box passes to the third-party provider that operates the tool. We do not keep or log those queries on our systems. The provider's own terms and privacy notice govern its handling of the search.

Emails and Messages

When you email us or use a contact form, we retain the message and supplied contact details as needed to answer. We do not disclose that correspondence outside our organization unless the law requires it.

  • Pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring website, when available.
  • The date and time of each request.
