Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information collected through Vilas County Busted Mugshots, how it is used, and the situations in which it may be shared. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information you provide

Queries entered in search tools

A name, place, or other term entered in a site search tool is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Vilas County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages

Information sent in an email or contact submission is retained so that a response can be provided. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.


Technical details collected automatically

When a page loads, standard web-service and analytics tools may receive technical information needed to operate, measure, and protect the site. This can include:

  • Internet protocol address;
  • browser name and version;
  • device type and operating system;
  • pages visited and time spent on them;
  • the referring site, if one is supplied; and
  • request dates and times.

Cookies

Cookies help show how visitors use the site and can support basic site functions. A browser can be set to block or remove cookies, although some features may work differently after that choice.


How collected information is used

The information described above may be used to operate and improve Vilas County Busted Mugshots.

  • Maintain reliable and responsive site service;
  • send a search request to the selected partner service;
  • understand which resources visitors use;
  • identify and address technical problems; and
  • display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.

Links and advertising outside this site

Links may lead to official jail, court, sheriff, corrections, and public-records resources as well as independent search services. Each outside site applies its own privacy notice once a visitor leaves this site.

Advertising partners may collect or use activity across websites for targeted advertising on their own systems. Their practices are governed by their own policies, not this notice.


Parties that may receive data

Personal information is not sold. Limited information may be provided to the following recipients when needed for the stated purpose or when legally required.

  • Search partners that process a submitted query;
  • analytics providers that help measure site use;
  • advertising networks that deliver advertisements; and
  • law enforcement or another government body responding to a valid legal order.

Security practices

Reasonable safeguards are used to protect data, but no internet-connected system can promise complete security. Vilas County Busted Mugshots cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, altered, or disclosed despite those measures.
