Privacy Notice

This notice explains what Sacramento County Busted Mugshots receives when you browse, search, or send a message. It describes how information is used, when service providers or authorities may receive it, and what choices are available. Search boxes are operated by outside partners, so a query passes to the selected provider under its own policy. Routine technical data may also be collected as pages load. By using the site, you accept the practices described here and on any outside service you choose to visit.

Information You Choose to Send

Terms Entered in Search

A name or location entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates the tool. Sacramento County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Email and Other Messages

Messages are retained as needed to answer the sender. They are not shared outside the organization unless a legal duty requires disclosure.

Technical Data Collected Automatically

Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may record:

  • Your Internet Protocol address.
  • Your browser name and version.
  • Your device category and operating system.
  • The pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring page, when available.
  • The date and time of each request.

Cookie Controls

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. You can block them through browser settings, although some features may then work differently.

Reasons We Use Information

Collected data supports site operations and visitor requests. It may be used to:

  • Keep pages available and responsive.
  • Send a search to the selected partner.
  • Measure which material visitors find useful.
  • Detect and repair technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.

Privacy Beyond This Website

Links lead to jail rosters, recent-booking searches, Sheriff and corrections pages, court portals, and outside tools. Once you leave, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to follow activity across sites and tailor ads. That tracking occurs under the partner’s rules, not this notice alone.

Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be provided to:

  • Search partners that process a query.
  • Analytics providers that measure site use.
  • Advertising networks that deliver ads.
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.

Security Has Practical Limits

Standard safeguards are used to protect information. No internet-connected service can guarantee perfect security, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.

Use by People Under 18

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian may contact us to request deletion if a minor submitted information.

Requests About Your Information

Subject to applicable law, you may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold.
  • Correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Delete eligible personal information.
  • Stop certain forms of processing.

Changes to This Notice

This notice may be revised as practices or legal duties change. A new version will be posted here with an updated effective date.
