Information You Provide
Search Terms
A name or location entered into a search widget is sent to the third-party provider that operates the search service. Franklin County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own server through that widget.
Messages and Submissions
If someone sends an email or contact message, the information in that message can be kept so a reply can be made or a request can be handled. It is not shared outside the operating organization unless disclosure is required by law or needed to protect rights and safety.

- Search partners that process a submitted query.
- Analytics providers that report page performance and use.
- Advertising networks and their service providers.

Security Practices
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for information handled by the resource. No internet-connected system is completely secure, however, and no promise can be made that data will be immune from every breach, misuse, or unauthorized access.
Visitors Under 18
This resource is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, a parent or guardian may use the Contact Us page to ask that it be deleted.

Subject to applicable law and reasonable verification, a person may ask to:
- Receive a copy of personal data held about them.
- Correct information that is wrong.
- Request deletion of information that can lawfully be erased.

A request can be limited by a legal duty to retain information, a third-party system's control, or the need to protect another person's rights.

This policy may be revised as the resource, technology, or legal requirements change. An updated version will be posted here with a new effective date. Continued use after an update indicates acceptance of the revised wording.
