Information You Provide
Search requests
If you enter a name, location, or other terms into a third-party search tool on this site, the query is sent to the provider operating that tool. Bailey County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those query terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you email us or send a message through a site contact option, we may keep the information needed to respond. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Technical Data and Cookies
When a page is requested, routine service and analytics records may collect technical details such as:
- an IP address;
- browser type and version;
- device category and operating system;
- pages viewed and time spent on them;
- the referring site, when one is supplied; and
- the date and time of the visit.
Cookies
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You can block or remove cookies in your browser settings, although some features may work differently after you do so.
How We Use Information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the site's performance.
- To pass a requested search to the applicable partner service.
- To understand which guides are useful to visitors.
- To diagnose, prevent, and repair technical problems.
- To present advertising that may be relevant to a visitor's interests.
Links Beyond This Site
Our guides link to resources such as the Bailey County Sheriff's Office, the county's jail visiting-hours information, the County Clerk, state corrections pages, and outside search tools. Once you follow an external link, that destination's privacy policy and practices apply.
Advertising partners may collect activity across websites for interest-based advertising through their own systems. Their tracking is governed by their policies, not this policy.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Information may nevertheless be processed or disclosed to the following categories when needed:
- search partners that process a search request;
- analytics providers;
- advertising networks; and
- law-enforcement or government authorities responding to a valid legal order.
Security Practices
We use reasonable safeguards intended to protect information, but no internet-connected service can guarantee complete security. We cannot promise that a transmission or stored record will never be accessed, altered, or lost.
