Privacy Notice

This notice explains the information collected when you use St. Clair County Busted Mugshots, why it is used, and when another party may receive it. It also describes cookies, security limits, and your available data choices. By continuing to use the site, you accept the practices stated here.

Information You Submit

Partner Search Entries

A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that powers that tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's policy governs its handling of the query.

Messages Sent to Us

If you email or submit a contact message, we retain what you provide for the purpose of responding. We do not share the message outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Ordinary server and analytics systems can record basic technical facts when a page loads, including:

  • Your internet protocol address
  • The browser type and version in use
  • Your device class and operating system
  • Pages viewed and the time spent on them
  • The referring website, when one is supplied
  • The date and time of each request

Cookies and Browser Controls

Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site and use its features. You may block or delete cookies through your browser settings, although some functions may work differently when cookies are unavailable.


Reasons We Use Data

Collected data is used only for operating, understanding, and supporting the site and its services.

  • Maintain performance and site availability
  • Send a requested search to the correct partner
  • Understand which guides visitors find useful
  • Identify errors, misuse, and technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Websites Beyond Our Control

Links may open a jail roster, booking view, sheriff or corrections page, court portal, federal locator, news outlet, or outside search service. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy terms control the information you provide and the data it collects.

Some advertising partners may use their own technology to observe activity across websites and select ads. That tracking occurs on the partner's systems, subject to its policy and available opt-out controls.


When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be available to the following recipients for the stated operational or legal reason:

  • A search partner processing a query you submit
  • An analytics provider measuring site use
  • An advertising network serving or measuring ads
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order

Security Has Limits

We use standard safeguards suited to the information and systems involved. No website, network, or storage method can be guaranteed immune from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse, so we cannot promise breach-proof security.


Visitors Under Age 18

This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone younger than 18. If you believe a minor submitted information, use the Contacts page to request its deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and our ability to identify the relevant information, you may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold about you
  • Correct personal data that is inaccurate
  • Delete personal data where the law permits
  • Stop certain processing where an opt-out right applies

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as services, vendors, or legal requirements change. A revised version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
