Information You Provide
Search requests
When a visitor enters a name, location, or other search term into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Dawson County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages and submissions
If a visitor sends an email or message through an available contact method, the information supplied may be retained to respond to the message or handle the request. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Technical Information Collected
Like most online services, the site and its service providers may receive routine technical information when a page is loaded. This information helps operate, secure, and understand the service.
- Internet protocol address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- Referring website, when one is available
- Date and time of access
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to understand site use and maintain certain functions. A browser can block or limit cookies through its settings, although some features may then behave differently.
How Information Is Used
Information collected through the service may be used for the following operational purposes:
- Operating and maintaining the site
- Routing a query to the selected search provider
- Understanding which material visitors use
- Finding and resolving technical problems
- Displaying advertising that may reflect general interests
Outside Websites and Ads
Links may lead to public agencies, courts, corrections systems, search providers, or other outside services. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy policy and data practices control. Dawson County Busted Mugshots does not control a linked service's content, availability, or information handling.
Advertising partners may collect activity across websites to deliver interest-based advertising through their own systems. Their collection and choices are governed by their own policies, not this policy.
Who May Receive Data
The service does not sell personal data. Limited information may be handled by the parties needed to operate the service or comply with law.
- Search providers that process submitted queries
- Analytics services that measure site use
- Advertising networks that serve advertisements
- Law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, however, and no method of transmission or storage is guaranteed to be breach-proof.
Visitors Under 18
The service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a parent or guardian believes that a minor submitted personal information, they may request its deletion through an available contact method.
Privacy Choices and Rights
A visitor may request action regarding personal information held directly by the service, subject to applicable law and verification of the request.
- Request a copy of information held about them
- Ask that inaccurate information be corrected
- Request deletion of information where applicable
- Object to or opt out of certain processing where available
Policy Changes
This policy may be revised as the service changes or legal requirements develop. A revised version becomes effective when posted and will state its revised effective date at that time.
