Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. San Diego County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Email and Other Messages
When you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. A message is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected
Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may record technical details when a page loads. Those details can include:
- Your Internet Protocol address.
- The browser name and version in use.
- Device category and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is supplied.
- The date and time of each request.
Cookies and Similar Tools
Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site and support certain features. You can block or remove them through browser settings, although parts of the site may then work differently.
Reasons Data Is Used
Collected data is used for limited operational and business purposes:
- Operating the site and maintaining acceptable performance.
- Sending a submitted search to the selected outside provider.
- Measuring which pages visitors find useful.
- Finding errors, abuse, and technical failures.
- Displaying advertising that may reflect general interests.
Privacy Beyond This Site
Links may lead to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, court portals, government records services, news outlets, or outside search tools. Once you leave, the destination's own privacy terms govern its collection and use of data.
Some advertising companies may recognize a browser across more than one website to select ads. That tracking occurs through their technology and systems, not through a booking-record database maintained here.
Limited Data Recipients
We do not sell personal information. Data may still be available to the following parties when their role requires it:
- Search partners that process a query you submit.
- Analytics vendors that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that serve or evaluate ads.
- Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Security Has Practical Limits
Reasonable, commonly used safeguards protect the systems under our control. No website or network can be guaranteed free of every breach, interception, or failure, so absolute security is not promised.
Visitors Must Be Adults
This site is intended for people age 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from a minor. A parent or guardian who believes a person under 18 submitted data may use the Contact Us page to request deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on the law that applies to you, available requests may include the right to:
- Ask for a copy of personal data held about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Seek deletion when the law provides that right.
- Opt out of certain forms of data processing.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as site practices or legal duties change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
