Privacy Notice

This notice describes what information may be collected when someone visits or contacts Russell County Busted Mugshots. It also explains how the information is used, when service providers or authorities may receive it, and which choices are available. Using the site means accepting these practices.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Russell County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's policy governs its handling of the query.

Messages Sent to Us

An email or contact-form message may be kept long enough to read, answer, and maintain the exchange. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal order.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Routine server, analytics, and security systems may record technical details when a page loads. Those details can include:

  • the visitor's Internet Protocol address;
  • browser name and version;
  • device category and operating system;
  • pages viewed and time spent on them;
  • the referring page or site, when supplied; and
  • the date and time of the request.

Cookies and Similar Storage

Cookies may help measure how people use the site and support advertising or other functions. Browser controls can reject or delete cookies. Some tools may work differently when storage is blocked.


Reasons Data Is Used

Collected data supports the operation and improvement of the service.

  • keep pages available, stable, and responsive;
  • send a search request to the selected partner;
  • measure which material visitors find useful;
  • detect errors, abuse, and technical faults; and
  • display advertising that may reflect user interests.

Other Websites Set Their Rules

Links may lead to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, booking feeds, government portals, news sites, and outside search providers. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy notice and terms apply.

Advertising providers may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and select ads. That processing occurs on their systems and is governed by their policies.


Parties That May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold. Limited data may still be handled by service providers or disclosed when law requires it, including:

  • search partners that process submitted queries;
  • analytics providers that measure site use;
  • advertising networks that deliver and assess ads; and
  • law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal demand.

Reasonable Security Measures

Standard safeguards are used to reduce unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No internet-connected service is entirely secure, however, and this site cannot promise that a breach or transmission failure will never occur.


Adults Only

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under eighteen. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may request its deletion through the contact page.


Choices About Personal Data

Subject to applicable law and the ability to verify a request, a user may ask to:

  • receive a copy of personal data held by the site;
  • correct inaccurate personal information;
  • delete information that no longer must be retained; or
  • opt out of certain processing where that right applies.

Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as services or legal requirements change. A new version takes effect when posted, along with an updated effective date where appropriate.
