Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice explains what information may pass through Knox County Busted Mugshots, how it is used, and when another service may receive it. It covers searches, direct messages, routine technical records, cookies, advertising, and analytics. By continuing to use the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Choose to Send

Terms Entered in Search

A name or location entered into a search feature is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Knox County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy terms govern its handling of the query.

Messages Sent to Us

If you email us or use a contact form, we retain the message and supplied contact details as needed to respond. We do not share a message outside our organization unless disclosure is legally required.


Routine Technical Information

Standard web systems can record limited technical information when a page loads. This helps us understand traffic and maintain the site.

  • The connecting IP 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 stamps for visits

Cookies and Browser Controls

Cookies may be used to measure how visitors move through the site and to support site features. You can block or delete cookies through browser settings. Some functions may work differently when cookies are disabled.


Why We Use Information

  • Operate the site and keep pages responsive
  • Send a search request to the selected partner tool
  • Learn which Knox County resource pages visitors find useful
  • Identify faults, abuse, and other technical problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect general interests

Websites Beyond Our Control

Links may lead to the Knox County Sheriff's Office roster, Indiana MyCase, the Indiana Department of Correction, federal locators, news publishers, and third-party search services. After you follow a link, the destination's own privacy notice controls its collection and use of information.

Advertising providers may use their own technology to observe activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That processing occurs on their systems, not on ours.


When Information May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be available to the parties that perform the following functions.

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order

Security Has Practical Limits

We use standard, reasonable practices intended to protect information under our control. No internet service, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed breach-proof, so absolute security is not promised.


This Site Is for Adults

Knox County Busted Mugshots is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal data, use the Get in Touch page to request its deletion.


Your Information Choices

  • Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Ask that eligible personal data be erased
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing where applicable

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this Privacy Notice as the site or applicable practices change. A revision becomes available on this page with an updated effective date.
