Privacy Notice

This notice describes information collected when you use Montcalm County Busted Mugshots, how it is handled, and the choices available to you. By using the site, you accept these practices.

Information You Provide

Search entries

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

Messages

If you send an email or a message through a contact method, we keep the information needed to respond. It is not shared outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Like most websites, limited technical information may be collected when a page loads to operate, secure, and measure the service.

  • Internet protocol address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • Referring site, when provided
  • Date and time of access

Cookies

Cookies help us understand how visitors use the site. Your browser can block or remove cookies, although some features may work differently when cookies are disabled.


How We Use Information

Information is used for ordinary site operation and improvement.

  • Operate and maintain a responsive site.
  • Send search requests to the appropriate partner service.
  • Understand which information is useful.

External Sites and Advertising

Links may lead to jail, sheriff, corrections, court, public-record, or third-party search resources. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy practices apply. Review its policies before providing information.

Some advertising partners may track activity across websites on their own systems to deliver interest-based advertising. Their collection is governed by their own notices, not this Privacy Notice.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries.
  • Analytics providers.
  • Advertising networks.
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order.

Security Practices

We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect information. No internet-connected system is completely secure, and we cannot promise that a transmission or stored data will never be accessed, altered, or lost.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided information, contact us so it can be deleted where appropriate.
