Information You Submit
Search terms
When a visitor enters a name, place, or other term into a search feature, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the feature. McIntosh County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s handling of the query is governed by that provider’s privacy terms.
Messages and requests
Messages sent through a contact method may include a name, email address, and the content of the message. Those details are kept as needed to respond or maintain the communication. They are not shared outside the operating organization unless disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect rights, safety, or property.
Technical Visit Details
Like many websites, the site and its service providers may receive routine technical information when a browser loads a page. That information helps operate the service, measure performance, and diagnose problems.
- Internet protocol address and approximate network information
- Browser type, version, and language settings
- Device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring page or service, when one is supplied
- Visit dates, times, and related diagnostic data
Cookies and similar tools
Cookies and related browser technologies may be used to understand how visitors use the site and to support advertising or analytics services. Browser controls can block or remove cookies, although certain features may work differently after those controls are used.
Reasons Data Is Used
Information is used to operate and improve the site, respond to messages, route search requests to the appropriate partner service, understand which material visitors use, and find or correct technical faults. It may also support advertising that is based on interests or visit activity, subject to the practices of the advertising provider.
Linked Services
Links may lead to sheriff offices, court portals, corrections resources, federal locators, newspapers, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the recipient site controls its own content, collection practices, and privacy terms. Review that site’s policy before submitting information there.
Advertising partners may collect activity across websites for their own interest-based advertising systems. That activity occurs under the partner’s policies and technical controls, not under this site’s direct control.
Parties That May Receive Data
Personal information is not sold. Information may be disclosed only in the limited settings needed to provide the service, meet legal duties, or protect the site and its users.
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that help measure site performance
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure advertisements
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies responding to a valid legal order
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information handled through the site. No internet-connected system can promise complete security, however, and no method of transmission or storage is guaranteed to prevent every unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure.
Visitors Under 18
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes that a minor submitted personal information may ask for its deletion through the Contact Us page.
Choices About Your Information
A visitor may ask to know what personal information is held, correct inaccurate information, request deletion where appropriate, or opt out of certain processing. Requests can be sent through the Contact Us page. Some information may need to be retained when law, security, or legitimate operational needs require it.
Changes to This Notice
This Privacy Notice may be revised as services, legal requirements, or operating practices change. The revised version will appear here with an updated effective date. Continued use after an update means the visitor accepts the revised notice.
