A name or location entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider operating that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Email and contact-form messages are retained as needed to respond. They are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.

- Pages opened and time spent on them
- The referring website, when supplied
- Date and time stamps
Cookie Use
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. Browser controls can block cookies, though some functions may then behave differently.

- Detect and repair technical faults
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Privacy Beyond This Site
Links lead to sheriff and corrections pages, public-record portals, government locators, and third-party search tools. The destination's own privacy policy controls after a visitor leaves this site.
Some advertising providers may measure activity across websites to select ads. That tracking occurs on their systems, not as a Pender government records function.
Parties Receiving Data
Personal information is not sold. It may be processed by:
- Search partners handling submitted queries
- Analytics providers measuring site use
- Advertising networks serving ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Measures
Standard protective practices are used, but no internet-connected system can be guaranteed secure or immune from a breach.
