Information You Provide
Search requests
Type a name, location, or other term into a search tool. Your entry goes straight to the third-party provider running that tool. Clay County Busted Mugshots keeps no log of those searches on its own systems. The provider's privacy rules govern whatever you enter there, not ours.
Messages
Emails and contact messages are a different matter. Those may be kept on file so a reply can be written and the conversation managed. Nothing leaves the organization. The only exceptions are when the law demands it or a valid legal process requires a response.
Technical Data and Cookies
Every page load sends a small amount of technical data back to the site and its service providers. That is standard for web services. The data helps keep things running and shows rough traffic patterns. It also makes troubleshooting possible when something breaks.
- Internet Protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- Referring site or page, when supplied
- Date and time of the visit
