Privacy Notice

This notice describes what data may be collected when you use the site, why it is used, and when it may be shared. By continuing to browse or use a search tool, you accept these practices.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

A name or location entered into a search box passes to the third-party company operating that tool. Jefferson County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Email and Other Messages

When you send an email or contact message, it may be retained long enough to answer and manage the request. Message content is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Details Collected

Like most websites, server and analytics systems may record routine technical details when a page loads:

  • Your Internet Protocol address
  • Your browser name and version
  • Your device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when available
  • Date and time stamps

Browser Cookies

Cookies help measure how visitors use the pages. You can block cookies in your browser, although some functions may work differently after they are disabled.


Reasons Data Is Used

  • Operate the site and maintain performance
  • Send search requests to the selected partner
  • Understand which pages visitors use
  • Diagnose errors and other technical problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy Beyond These Pages

Links may open jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, booking resources, government portals, or outside search tools. Once you leave, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Advertising companies may use their own technology to follow activity across websites and select ads. That tracking occurs through their systems, not records maintained by this site.


Limited Data Disclosure

Personal information is not sold. It may be disclosed only to parties that perform a relevant function or when the law requires it:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Services that measure traffic and site use
  • Advertising networks serving ads
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

Reasonable, standard safeguards are used to protect information. No website, network, or internet transmission can be guaranteed secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Adults Only

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may contact us to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal data we hold
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Ask that eligible data be erased
  • Opt out of processing where that right applies

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as practices or requirements change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
