Privacy Notice

This notice describes information connected with use of Portage County Busted Mugshots, the purposes for which it is used, and the limited situations in which it may be shared. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Provide

Search entries

A name or location submitted through a search tool is sent to the third-party provider operating that tool. The site does not keep a separate log of those search terms.

Messages

Information sent in an email or contact message may be retained to answer the message. It is not disclosed outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.


Automatic Technical Data

Like most websites, technical information may be collected when a browser loads a page. This helps operate, measure, and secure the service.

  • Internet protocol address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • Referring website, when one is available
  • Visit date and time

Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand how visitors use the site. A browser can block or clear cookies, although some functions may work differently after that choice.


How Information Is Used

Technical and message information may be used for ordinary operations, service improvement, and advertising support.

  • Keep pages available and responsive
  • Send search entries to the applicable partner service
  • Learn which material visitors use
  • Identify and correct technical problems
  • Display advertising that may be relevant to visitor interests

Links and Advertising

Links may lead to sheriff, court, corrections, and other outside resources. Their privacy practices apply once a visitor leaves this site, so their notices should be reviewed directly.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to observe activity across websites for interest-based advertising. Those activities occur under the partner’s controls and policies.


Possible Recipients

Personal data is not sold as a product. It can be shared only with the service providers or authorities needed for the purposes described here.

  • Search partners that process search entries
  • Analytics providers
  • Advertising networks
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order

Security Practices

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information. No internet-connected system is completely secure, and this notice does not promise that a breach or unauthorized access can never occur.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor supplied information may request its deletion through the contacts page.


Your Information Choices

Subject to applicable law and verification, a visitor may ask to review information held about them, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, or object to certain processing. Use Contacts to make a request.


Policy Revisions

This notice may change as the site or applicable practices change. A revised version takes effect when it is posted here.
