Information You Submit
Search Terms
A name, place, or other detail entered into a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. Gibson County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those query terms on its own systems. The search provider's rules and privacy practices govern its handling of the submitted query.
Messages Sent to Us
When you email us or submit a contact message, we keep the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Information Collected
Basic technical and usage details may be recorded when a page loads. This information helps operate the site and understand general traffic patterns. It can include:
- Your Internet Protocol address
- Browser name and version
- Device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when available
- Date and time records for the visit
Cookie Use
Cookies may help measure how visitors move through the site and which features are used. You may block or remove cookies through your browser controls. Some functions may behave differently or become unavailable when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports ordinary site operations. We use it to:
- Keep pages available and responsive
- Send search requests to the appropriate partner service
- Understand which content visitors find useful
- Detect, diagnose, and correct technical faults
- Present advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Websites Beyond Our Control
Links may lead to the Gibson County Sheriff's Office, Gibson County Jail booking tools, Indiana Department of Correction resources, federal locators, court portals, news outlets, and third-party search services. Once you follow a link, the destination's own privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.
Advertising companies may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That processing occurs under those companies' practices, not on systems controlled by Gibson County Busted Mugshots.
Recipients of Information
We do not sell personal information. Depending on the feature used and legal requirements, information may be received by:
- Search partners that process submitted queries
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Safeguarding Information
We use standard security measures intended to protect information against improper access, alteration, or loss. No website, network, storage system, or Internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure. We therefore cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor supplied information may contact us and request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and the nature of the data, you may:
- Ask for a copy of personal information we hold about you
- Request correction of information that is inaccurate
- Ask that eligible information be erased
- Object to or opt out of certain processing
