Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information Guernsey County Busted Mugshots receives, how it is used, and the circumstances in which it may be shared. It applies to visits and messages submitted through this service. By using the service, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Provide

Search terms

A name, location, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Guernsey County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages and submissions

If you send an email or submit a contact message, the information you provide may be retained to respond to the message and maintain the correspondence. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Visit Information

Like most web services, the site and its service providers may automatically receive technical information when a page loads. This information helps operate, measure, and protect the service.

  • Your internet protocol address.
  • Your browser name and version.
  • Your device type and operating system.
  • The pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring page or service, if one is provided.
  • The date and time of a visit.

Cookies and similar tools

Cookies and comparable technologies help show how visitors use the service. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features may then work differently or not work at all.


How Information Is Used

Information is used for ordinary service operations and improvement.

  • To keep the service available and responsive.
  • To pass a search request to the selected partner service.
  • To understand which content visitors find useful.
  • To identify, investigate, and correct technical problems.
  • To display advertising that may reflect general interests.

Outside Links and Services

The service links to official jail rosters, sheriff and police pages, courts, government portals, and third-party search tools. Each outside service has its own terms and privacy practices once you leave this site. Public-record access mentioned here is governed by the applicable custodian and Ohio law, including Ohio Revised Code 149.43.

Advertising providers may collect or receive information about activity across different sites for interest-based advertising through their own systems. Their practices are not controlled by Guernsey County Busted Mugshots.


Who May Receive Data

Personal information is not sold. It may be shared with the limited parties needed to operate the service or comply with a legal obligation.

  • Search partners that process a submitted query.
  • Analytics providers that measure service use.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure advertising.
  • Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.

Security Practices

Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information. No internet-connected system is completely secure, however, and this service cannot promise that information will never be lost, misused, or accessed without authorization.


Visitors Under 18

This service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal information, a parent or guardian may ask for its deletion.


Your Information Choices

Subject to applicable law and the information actually held, you may ask to:

  • Receive a copy of personal information held about you.
  • Correct personal information that is inaccurate.
  • Request deletion of information that is no longer needed.
  • Opt out of certain processing where that choice is available.

Changes to This Notice

This notice may change as the service or applicable requirements change. Any revision will be posted here with an updated effective date. Continued use after a revision is posted means the revised notice applies to future use.
