Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what Cherokee County Busted Mugshots receives when pages are used, how that information supports the service, and when it may reach a provider or government body. Using the service means accepting these practices.

Information You Submit

Search Terms

A name or location entered into a search widget is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Cherokee County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages

Email and contact messages are kept as needed to read and answer them. They are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data and Cookies

Each page load may produce ordinary technical data needed for site operation and measurement:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent
  • Referring page, when supplied
  • Visit timestamps

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools help measure how visitors use the pages. Browser settings can block them, although some features may work differently when they are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • Keep pages available and responsive.
  • Send search requests to the provider that powers the selected tool.
  • Understand which pages are useful.
  • Find errors and technical faults.
  • Support advertising that may reflect browsing interests.

Outside Links

Links lead to county rosters, booking systems, sheriff and corrections pages, court portals, federal locators, and outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy and data practices apply.

Some advertising partners may track activity across different sites for interest-based ads. That tracking occurs on their systems, not under this site’s control.


Possible Recipients

Personal information is not sold by this site. It may be handled by the following parties:

  • Search partners processing submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers measuring page use.
  • Advertising networks serving or measuring ads.
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.

Security Efforts

Reasonable standard security practices are used, but no internet-connected system is fully secure. Absolute breach prevention cannot be promised.


Children and Teens

The service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted data, contact the service with enough detail to locate and delete it.


Your Privacy Choices

  • Ask what personal data is held.
  • Request correction of inaccurate information.
  • Ask for deletion where applicable.
  • Opt out of certain processing where the law or provider allows it.

Policy Changes

This notice may change as the service or applicable rules change. A revised version will be posted here with a new effective date.
