Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information Rock County Busted Mugshots receives, the limited ways it uses that information, and the circumstances in which it may be shared. It applies to visits, partner search tools, and messages sent to us. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Search terms

When a visitor enters a name or location in a search tool, that query is routed to the independent provider that operates the tool. Rock County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Emails and messages

We retain messages sent by email or through a contact method only as needed to respond or handle the request. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for disclosure.


Technical Visit Information

Like most sites, Rock County Busted Mugshots and its service providers may receive routine technical information when a page is requested. This data helps operate the site and identify performance or security issues.

  • Your internet protocol address.
  • Your browser and its version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them.
  • The referring site, when one is available.
  • Dates and times of page requests.

Cookies

Cookies and comparable tools may be used to understand site use and maintain ordinary features. Browser controls can block or remove cookies, although a feature or partner tool may work differently when those controls are enabled.


How Information Is Used

We use the information described above for practical site operations and to connect a visitor’s request with the service selected.

  • Operate, maintain, and improve site performance.
  • Send a submitted search request to the appropriate partner service.
  • Understand which Rock County reference pages visitors use.
  • Detect and correct technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor’s interests.

External Sites and Advertising

Links may take visitors to the Rock County Sheriff’s Office, the Nobles County inmate listing, MCRO, MN DOC, other government portals, or independent search tools. Each destination has its own privacy practices, and those practices apply after you leave this site.

Advertising partners may collect activity across sites to support interest-based advertising on their own systems. Their tracking is subject to their policies, not this notice.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be disclosed to the following recipients when needed for the purposes described in this notice.

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

Security Practices

We use reasonable, standard safeguards suited to the nature of the site. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed completely secure, and we cannot promise that an unauthorized event will never occur.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal information, a parent or guardian may contact us to request its deletion.


Choices About Your Data

Subject to applicable law and the information we actually hold, a visitor may ask about the following choices.

  • Request a copy of personal information we hold.
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate information.
  • Request deletion of information where applicable.
  • Opt out of certain processing where that option applies.
