Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice describes the information connected with use of Wythe County Busted Mugshots, how it may be used, and when it may be shared. By using the service, a visitor accepts these practices. Public-agency links and third-party search tools have their own terms and privacy practices, which apply when a visitor leaves this service.

Information Submitted Directly

Search entries

A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Wythe County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages

If a visitor sends an email or contact submission, the information supplied in that message may be retained to respond or address the request. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Information Collected

Like many web services, basic technical details may be collected when a page is requested to operate, secure, and measure the service.

  • Internet protocol address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them
  • Referring page, when one is provided
  • Request dates and times

Cookies

Cookies and similar technologies may help measure how visitors use the service. Browser controls can block or delete cookies, although some features may work differently after those choices are made.


How Information Is Used

  • To operate and maintain the service
  • To route search submissions to the selected partner tool
  • To understand which pages and resources are useful
  • To diagnose, prevent, and repair technical problems
  • To support advertising that may be based on interests

Outside Websites and Advertising

Links may lead to official jail and court resources, Sheriff or corrections pages, public portals, and third-party tools. Each destination controls its own data practices after a visitor follows the link. Wythe County Busted Mugshots does not control their content, availability, or privacy terms.

Advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and present interest-based advertising. That activity occurs under the partner’s practices, not under this service’s control.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold. It may be disclosed to the limited groups below when needed for the stated purpose or when legally required.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that help measure service use
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure advertisements
  • Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies responding to a valid legal order

Security Practices

Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to protect information. No internet-connected service can guarantee complete security, however, and no system can promise that unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Under 18

This service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted personal information may request its deletion through Get in Touch.


Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity verification, a visitor may request to:

  • Receive a copy of personal information held by the service
  • Correct personal information that is inaccurate
  • Request deletion of personal information
  • Opt out of certain processing where that option applies

Changes to This Notice

This notice may be revised as the service or legal requirements change. A revised version takes effect when posted with its updated effective date.
