Privacy Notice

This notice describes what Gage County Busted Mugshots collects, why it is used, and when it may be shared. By using the service, you accept these practices. This policy applies to this private reference service, not to a sheriff, court, jail, correctional office, or another linked organization.

Information You Provide

Partner Search Requests

If you enter a name or place in a search tool, the request is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Gage County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log the words entered in that provider’s search field.

Messages You Send

We keep an email or message submitted to us as needed to respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Technical Data From Visits

Like most web services, we may receive limited technical information when a browser loads a page.

  • Your internet protocol address.
  • Your browser name and version.
  • Your device category and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and the time spent on them.
  • The referring page or service, when one is supplied.
  • The date and time of the visit.

Cookies

Cookies help us understand how visitors use the service. You can block or remove cookies through browser settings, although certain functions may then work differently.

How Information Is Used

Technical and contact information supports routine operation of the service and helps us improve it.

  • Maintain a reliable, responsive site.
  • Pass a search request to the appropriate partner service.
  • Understand which information readers find useful.
  • Diagnose and correct technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may reflect general interests.

Other Websites and Ads

Links may lead to Gage County jail and sheriff resources, court and corrections portals, other government offices, and outside search tools. Once you leave this service, the recipient’s own privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.

Advertising providers may observe activity across websites to deliver interest-based advertising through their own systems. Their practices are not controlled by Gage County Busted Mugshots.

When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be shared with the following recipients when needed for the stated purpose or when the law requires it.

  • Search partners that receive a submitted query.
  • Analytics providers that measure site activity.
  • Advertising networks that deliver advertisements.
  • Law-enforcement agencies or public bodies acting under a valid legal order.

Security Practices

We use reasonable safeguards intended to protect the information we handle. No online system can be guaranteed secure, however, and we cannot promise that a transmission, account, or storage system will never be compromised.

Visitors Under 18

This service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has sent us personal information, use the Get in Touch page to request its deletion.

Your Information Choices

You may contact us regarding personal information that we hold about you.

  • Request a copy of the information we retain.
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Ask us to delete information when applicable.
  • Opt out of selected processing where that option is available.

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this Privacy Notice when our practices or legal obligations change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date.
