Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information Jackson County Busted Mugshots receives, how it may be used, and the circumstances in which it may be shared. By browsing or using a search tool on the site, a visitor accepts these practices. Government records reached through outbound links are subject to the privacy rules of the agency that operates them.

Information You Provide

Search Entries

A name, location, or other term entered into a site search tool is sent to the third-party service that operates that tool. Jackson County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those query terms on its own systems.

Messages You Send

We retain an email or contact message long enough to respond and manage the correspondence. We do not share the message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data and Cookies

Routine technical information may be collected when a browser loads a page. This information helps operate and measure the service.

  • Internet protocol address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • Referring website, when available
  • Visit date and time

Cookie Controls

Cookies help show how visitors use the site. Browser settings may block or delete cookies, although some functions may then work differently.


How Information Is Used

Collected information supports basic operation, improvement, and funding of the service.

  • Maintain site performance and availability
  • Send a search entry to the selected partner service
  • Understand which material readers use
  • Detect and address technical problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect interests

Outside Websites and Advertising

The site links to government rosters, records pages, court and corrections resources, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, that destination’s own privacy notice and practices apply. For example, government data reached from the site is controlled by the custodian’s applicable Minnesota data-practices rules, including Minn. Stat. § 13.03.

Advertising partners may measure activity across sites to deliver interest-based advertising. That tracking occurs on the partners’ systems, not as a promise that this site controls their collection or use.


Parties That May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold. It may be provided or made available to the following parties when necessary for the purposes described above:

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Analytics providers
  • Advertising networks
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order

Security Practices

We use reasonable safeguards intended to protect information in our control. No internet-connected service can promise absolute security, so we cannot guarantee that a transmission or stored information will never be accessed, altered, or lost.


Visitors Under 18

This service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent personal information, contact us through Contact Us so it can be reviewed for deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

A visitor may contact us about information that we hold directly.

  • Request a copy of personal information we maintain
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate personal information
  • Request deletion where applicable
  • Opt out of certain processing where that option is available

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as practices or services change. A revised version will be posted here with an updated effective date.
