Information Provided by a Visitor
Queries Submitted to Search Providers
A name, location, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. Nueces County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s terms and privacy practices apply to the query after it leaves this site.
Messages Sent to Us
We retain an email or other contact message long enough to reply and administer the correspondence. We do not share its contents outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Received Automatically
Like most websites, the service may receive routine technical information when a page loads. That information can include the following:
- Internet Protocol address
- browser name and version
- device type and operating system
- pages viewed and the time spent on them
- the referring website, when one is provided
- request date and time
Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand general site use and support normal page functions. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some parts of the site may then work differently.
Why We Use Technical Information
Technical data helps operate and improve the service. It may be used for these limited purposes:
- operate the site and improve response time
- send a submitted query to its intended search provider
- understand which pages visitors use
- identify and repair technical problems
- display advertising that may reflect general interests
Links and Outside Services
Links can lead to jail, sheriff, court, corrections, public-records, and outside search services. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy and data practices govern. Official records requests may be handled under Texas Government Code Chapter 552, but the government custodian controls its own request system and privacy practices.
Advertising partners may collect activity across websites for interest-based advertising through their own systems. Those systems are not controlled by Nueces County Busted Mugshots.
Limited Sharing
We do not sell personal data. Information may be available to the following categories of recipients when needed for the service or required by law:
- search partners that receive a submitted query
- analytics providers
- advertising networks
- law-enforcement agencies or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information. No internet-connected service can promise absolute security, and no system can guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under 18
This service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If a minor has sent us personal information, use the contact route to request its deletion.
Choices About Personal Data
A visitor may ask about information held in connection with a direct message or other direct interaction with the site. Depending on the request, a visitor may:
- request a copy of data we hold
- ask to correct inaccurate information
- ask for deletion where appropriate
- opt out of certain processing where available
Changes to This Notice
This notice may change as the service changes or legal requirements develop. A revised version will be posted here with an updated effective date.
