This notice describes the information collected when you use Franklin County Busted Mugshots, how it is used, and the choices available to you. By using the site, you accept these practices.

A name or location entered in a search tool is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. We do not store or log those search terms on our own systems.

If you email us or submit a contact message, we retain the details needed to answer it. We do not share a message outside our organization unless law requires it.

Cookies

Cookies help measure use and maintain site features. Browser controls can block cookies, though parts of the service may then work differently.


How Information Is Used

Technical and submitted information may be used to operate and improve the service, direct search requests to a provider, understand which pages are useful, diagnose errors, and support advertising that may be tailored by an ad partner.


External Services and Links

Links to the Sheriff, courts, corrections agencies, and other resources lead to independently operated services. Their privacy rules apply after you leave this site. Advertising partners may collect activity across sites on their own systems for interest-based ads.


Possible Recipients

We do not sell personal data. Information may be handled by search partners that process a query, analytics providers, advertising networks, or public authorities when a valid legal order requires disclosure.


Security

Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information, but no internet-connected system can guarantee complete security.


Visitors Under 18

The site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. Contact us to request deletion if a minor submitted information.


Your Choices

You may ask for a copy of personal information we hold, request correction or deletion, or ask to opt out of certain processing where applicable. Use the Contact Us page for these requests.


Changes to This Notice

We may revise this notice as the service changes. A revised version takes effect when it is posted here.
