Privacy

Plumbline is a free public-records site. There are no accounts and nothing to sign up for. We try to handle as little about you as we can. This page says exactly what our systems do handle.

Lookups

When you check a contractor, your browser or your AI agent sends the query (a license number or a business name, plus a state) to our server. The server answers from license records it already holds and does not save the query. Our web-server configuration also turns request logging off for the lookup paths (/v1 and /mcp), so lookup queries are not written to server logs.

Page visits

Opening a page (a contractor record, a state hub, this page) is logged the way most web servers log requests: the page address, your network (IP) address, the time, your browser's identification string, and the page that linked you there, when your browser sends one. We use that log to keep the site running, debug problems, and deal with abuse. We do not sell it or share it.

No cookies, no trackers

Our pages set no cookies. There are no ads, no analytics scripts, and no third-party embeds: every page is self-contained, and your visit talks only to our server.

What we keep on purpose

If you report a record error, we store the report so we can act on it: the license number, the jurisdiction, what you said is wrong, and, only if you chose to provide them, your email address and an evidence link. We use the email to follow up on that report and for nothing else. If you email us instead, we have what your email carries.

Rate limiting

To keep the site up, the server briefly counts requests per network address in memory. The counts protect the service from overload and are not written anywhere.

About the records on this site
