Information You Choose to Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, location, or other term entered in a search feature is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool so it can process the request. Huntington County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems. The search provider may collect and use the submitted information under its separate privacy policy.
Emails and Contact Messages
When you send an email or use a contact form, we keep the information needed to read and answer the message. Contact details and message content are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law, legal process, or a valid government demand.
Technical Details Collected During Visits
Like most websites, our systems may automatically receive basic technical and usage data when a page loads. These details help deliver pages, understand general traffic patterns, and diagnose problems. The information may include:
- The internet protocol address associated with the request
- The browser name, browser type, and version
- The device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and the time spent on them
- The referring website, when one is supplied
- The date and time recorded for each request
Cookies and Similar Storage
Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and to support site functions, analytics, and advertising. Most browsers let you reject or delete cookies through their settings. Blocking them may cause some features, preferences, partner tools, or advertising functions to work differently.
Purposes for Using Information
Information collected through the site is used only for ordinary operating, service, measurement, and improvement purposes. Those purposes include:
- Keeping pages available, responsive, and reliable
- Sending search requests to the selected partner service
- Learning which Huntington County resource pages visitors find useful
- Detecting errors, misuse, and technical failures
- Displaying advertising that may relate to a visitor's interests
Privacy Beyond This Website
Huntington County Busted Mugshots links to official jail rosters, booking and court resources, the Huntington County Sheriff's Department, the Indiana Department of Correction, government portals, news sources, and third-party search tools. Those destinations operate independently. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy, security practices, cookies, and data rules apply.
Advertising companies may use their own systems and technologies to recognize activity across different websites and select interest-based advertisements. That cross-site collection occurs on the advertising partner's systems, not as a separate database maintained by Huntington County Busted Mugshots.
Parties That May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may nevertheless be transmitted or disclosed to providers that perform specific functions, or when the law requires a response. Those recipients may include:
- Search partners that receive and process submitted queries
- Analytics providers that measure visits and site use
- Advertising networks that deliver and assess advertisements
- Law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information under our control. No internet transmission, connected server, or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure. Huntington County Busted Mugshots therefore cannot promise that unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or a security incident will never occur.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly seek or collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted personal information may contact us and request deletion. We will review the request and remove information under our control when reasonably verifiable and applicable.
Choices About Your Information
Subject to applicable law and the ability to verify a request, you may ask us to take the following actions regarding personal information maintained on our systems:
- Provide a copy of personal information we hold about you
- Correct personal information that is inaccurate
- Delete personal information where an erasure right applies
- Opt out of certain processing where that choice is available
These choices apply to data controlled by Huntington County Busted Mugshots. Requests concerning a jail, court, search provider, news outlet, or another linked service must be directed to that separate organization.
Changes to This Privacy Notice
We may revise this Privacy Notice as technology, services, or legal requirements change. An updated version will be posted on this page and will take effect on the new effective date shown with it. Continued use after an update means the revised practices apply to later activity.
