Information Provided to Us
Search activity
A name, place, or other term entered into a search feature is sent to the third-party provider that operates that feature. Dunklin County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or a contact-form message, we retain the information in that message so that we can reply or administer the request. We do not disclose those messages outside our organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Technical Details Collected Automatically
Standard web systems may collect technical information when a page is requested. This information helps maintain the site, understand general use, and investigate technical problems.
- The internet protocol address associated with the request
- The browser name and version
- The device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and the time spent on them
- The referring site, when one is supplied
- The date and time of the request
Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand how visitors use the site. A browser can usually block or remove cookies through its settings, although doing so can change how some site features behave.
How Information Supports the Site
The information described above is used for ordinary operating purposes, including the following:
- Operating and improving site speed and availability
- Sending search requests to the appropriate partner service
- Understanding which pages visitors find useful
- Finding, diagnosing, and correcting technical issues
- Displaying advertising that may be relevant to visitor interests
Outside Websites and Services
This site may link to sheriff, corrections, jail, court, government, and third-party search resources. Once a visitor follows an outside link, that provider's privacy practices control the information handled on its site. This Privacy Notice does not govern those independent services.
Public-record requests made directly to a government office are handled by that office under the applicable records law. In Missouri, §610.023 sets the request-response framework for public governmental bodies. Some advertising partners may also measure activity across websites for interest-based advertising on their own systems.
Parties That May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Information may nevertheless be handled by the service providers and recipients below when needed for the purposes described in this notice.
- Search partners that receive a submitted search request
- Analytics providers used to understand site performance
- Advertising networks that serve or measure advertisements
- Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Practices
We use reasonable standard measures intended to protect information handled through the site. No internet-connected system can promise complete security, however, and this policy does not guarantee that a transmission or stored item will never be accessed, changed, or lost.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under eighteen. If a parent or guardian believes a minor submitted information, they may contact us to request its deletion.
Choices About Your Information
A visitor may contact us to make the following requests about information we hold:
- Request a copy of the personal information we hold
- Ask that inaccurate information be corrected
- Request deletion of personal information
- Opt out of certain processing where that option applies
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this Privacy Notice as site practices or legal requirements change. A revised version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date, and continued use after posting means the revised notice applies.
