Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice describes what Ellis County Busted Mugshots collects, how that information is used, and the limited circumstances in which it may be shared. By using the site, a visitor accepts these practices. The notice applies to this privately operated reference site, not to the government offices or independent websites linked from it.

Information provided directly

Search entries

When a visitor types a name or location into a site search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Ellis County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy practices govern its handling of the query and any information supplied after leaving this site.

Messages

If a visitor sends an email or a message through a contact method, the site may retain the name, email address, and message content needed to respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical data and cookies

Like most websites, the site may receive routine technical information when a page loads. This information helps maintain the service and understand general use.

  • Internet protocol address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages visited and time spent on them
  • Referring website, when available
  • Dates and times of requests

Cookie choices

Cookies and similar tools may be used to learn how visitors use the site. A browser can usually block or remove cookies through its settings. Some features may work differently if those settings prevent cookies.


How data is used

Information is used to operate and improve the site, route a submitted search to the appropriate partner service, identify useful pages, diagnose technical problems, and support advertising that may be based on interests.


Outside websites and advertising

Links may lead to sheriff resources, court portals, Oklahoma Department of Corrections information, federal locators, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy notice and practices apply. Ellis County Busted Mugshots does not control an outside site's content, availability, or data handling.

Advertising partners may collect activity across sites for interest-based advertising on their own systems. That activity is governed by those partners' policies.


When information may be shared

Personal data is not sold. It may be shared only with parties that need it for the following limited purposes.

  • Search partners that process queries submitted through their tools
  • Analytics providers that help measure and improve site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver or measure advertising
  • Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure

Security limits

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, however, and no breach-proof guarantee is made.


Visitors under 18

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may request deletion through the Get in Touch page.


Your information choices

Subject to applicable law and practical verification, a visitor may ask to review data held about them, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, or object to certain processing. Search queries handled only by an outside provider must be addressed to that provider.


Changes to this notice

This Privacy Notice may be changed as site practices change. A revised version will be posted here, and the updated terms take effect when posted.
