Information You Provide
Search entries
A name, place, or other term entered into a site search tool is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Spokane County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
When a visitor sends an email or other message to the site, the information supplied in that message may be kept so a response can be made. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Information
Like most websites, the site and its service providers may receive limited technical information when a page is loaded.
- The device's IP address.
- Browser type and version.
- 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 and similar tools help measure how visitors use the site. Browser settings can block or remove cookies, although some features may work differently after they are disabled.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports the ordinary operation and improvement of the site.
- Operating and maintaining the site.
- Sending a search request to the selected partner service.
- Understanding which pages visitors find useful.
- Detecting and resolving technical problems.
- Displaying advertising that may be relevant to a visitor's interests.
External Services and Links
The site links to detention rosters, court and public-records portals, sheriff and corrections pages, and independent search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, that destination's own privacy practices apply. Spokane County Busted Mugshots does not control those destinations.
Advertising partners may also collect activity across websites for interest-based advertising on their own systems. Their policies, not this notice, explain that collection and its available choices.
Recipients of Information
The site does not sell personal information. Depending on the service used and a lawful need to disclose information, it may be received by the following categories of recipients.
- Search partners that process a submitted query.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that serve site advertising.
- Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Reasonable Safeguards
The site uses reasonable security practices intended to protect information in its care. No internet-connected system can promise complete security, so the site cannot guarantee that transmissions or stored information will never be accessed, altered, or lost.
Visitors Under 18
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a parent or guardian believes a minor submitted information, they may contact the site to request its deletion.
Your Information Choices
A visitor may ask about information held by the site and may make the following requests, subject to applicable law and verification.
- Request a copy of personal information held by the site.
- Ask to correct inaccurate personal information.
- Request deletion of personal information.
