Information You Provide
Search requests
When you type a name, place, or other search term into a search tool, that request is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Mason County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy practices govern its handling of the request.
Messages you send
If you email us or use a contact form, we receive the contact details and message content you choose to provide. We retain that information as reasonably needed to respond or maintain a record of the exchange. It is not shared outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data and Cookies
Like most online services, the site and its service providers may receive routine technical information when a page is requested. This information helps operate, secure, and understand the performance of the site.
- Your internet protocol address
- Your browser type and version
- Your device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and the time spent on them
- The referring page or service, when available
- Request dates and times
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand visitor activity and keep the site functioning as intended. Your browser settings may allow you to block or remove cookies. Some features may work differently after cookies are blocked, and settings offered by a third-party provider apply to that provider's tools.
How Information Is Used
Information collected through normal site activity is used for practical operating purposes, including the following:
- Operating and improving site speed, availability, and reliability
- Passing a search request to the appropriate partner service
- Understanding which pages and links are useful to visitors
- Finding, diagnosing, and fixing technical problems
- Delivering advertising that may reflect general interests
External Links and Advertising
Mason County Busted Mugshots links to official sheriff, court, custody, and public-information resources, along with selected outside search tools. Once you follow an external link, that organization's privacy policy and terms control its collection and use of information. We do not control the content, availability, or data practices of outside services.
Advertising partners may use their own technologies to measure activity across websites or to provide interest-based advertising. Those activities occur within the advertising partner's systems, not as a record of the searches kept by Mason County Busted Mugshots.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be available to the following categories of recipients when needed to operate the site or comply with a lawful requirement:
- Search partners that process search requests
- Analytics services that help measure site performance
- Advertising networks that serve or measure advertisements
- Law enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information in our control. No internet-connected service can promise absolute security, and no method of transmission or storage is guaranteed to prevent every unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from people under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information to us, contact us so we can review the request and delete the information where appropriate.

- Ask for a copy of personal information we maintain
