Information You Enter
Search Queries
When a visitor types a name, location, or other search term into a partner search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. This site does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages and Contact Requests
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the message and return details may be kept long enough to review and respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law, legal process, or a valid government order.
Automatic Site Data
Like most public websites, this site may collect basic technical information when a page loads. That data helps measure use, troubleshoot errors, and protect the site.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time on page.
- Referring website, when one is passed by the browser.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used for analytics, advertising measurement, and basic site functions. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features may load or behave differently if cookies are disabled.
How Data Is Used
- To keep pages available, stable, and fast.

- To find technical problems and security issues.
- To display ads that may be based on general visitor interests.
Government and Outside Links
This site links to HPD, DCR, Hawaii SAVIN/VINELink, eCourt Kokua, UIPA resources, federal locators, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination site's privacy policy and terms control its collection and use of data. Hawaii public-record requests made to government offices may also be handled under the Uniform Information Practices Act, HRS Chapter 92F, including HRS 92F-11 disclosure duties and HRS 92F-13 exceptions.
Advertising partners may use cookies or similar technology to measure activity across different websites. That tracking occurs through their systems, not through a public-record file hosted by this site.

- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, regulators, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
