Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information handled when someone browses Johnson County Busted Mugshots, uses a partner search box, or sends a message. It also explains why data is used, when another service may receive it, and which choices are available. An outside site applies its own privacy rules after a visitor follows its link.

Information You Submit

A name, location, or other term entered in a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Johnson County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. A message or email sent directly to the site may include an address, name, and whatever details the sender chooses to provide. Those messages are retained as needed to respond and are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Automatic Technical Details

Normal web operations can produce limited technical data when a page loads. That information may include:

  • the visitor’s IP address;
  • browser type and version;
  • device type and operating system;
  • pages viewed and time spent on them;
  • the referring site, when available; and
  • the date and time of a request.

Cookies help measure how pages are used. A browser can block or delete cookies, though some site functions may then behave differently.


How Data Is Used

Collected information supports a small set of operational purposes.

  • keep pages available and responsive;
  • send a requested search to the proper partner;
  • understand which material visitors use;
  • find errors and maintain site security; and
  • display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.

Links and Advertising

Pages may link to JIMS, Johnson County Sheriff resources, booking feeds, court portals, KASPER, federal locators, news outlets, and outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy controls its collection and use of data. Advertising providers may use their own technology to recognize activity across websites. That processing takes place on the providers’ systems, not in an official Johnson County record system.


When Data May Be Shared

Personal information is not sold. It may be available to a search partner that handles a submitted query, an analytics provider that measures site use, an advertising network that supplies ads, or a government or law-enforcement body acting under a valid legal order.


Security Is Best Effort

Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used. No internet-connected service can promise that every transmission or stored item will remain secure, so this notice does not claim breach-proof protection.


Visitors Under Eighteen

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the contact page to request its deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law, a person may ask for a copy of personal data held by the site, request correction of inaccurate data, seek deletion, or object to certain processing. Use the Contact Us page to make a request. Identity verification may be required before action is taken.


Changes to This Notice

This privacy notice may be revised as site practices or legal duties change. A new version becomes effective when posted here with an updated effective date.

Effective date: August 23, 2026.
