Privacy Notice

This notice describes what Charlotte County Busted Mugshots may collect, how that information is used, and the limited circumstances in which it may be shared. It also explains cookies, outside links, security practices, and choices available to visitors. By using the site, you accept the practices stated here.

Information You Choose to Send

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name or place entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Charlotte County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages Sent to Us

If you email us or submit a contact message, we keep the information needed to answer. We do not share that message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data Collected During Visits

Like most websites, our systems may receive routine technical data when a page loads. That data can include:

  • The Internet Protocol address used for the request
  • Browser type and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when one is provided
  • Date and time stamps

Cookie Use

Cookies help show how visitors use the site. You may block them through your browser settings, although some functions may then work differently.


How We Use Collected Data

Collected information supports site operation, troubleshooting, and a better understanding of which Charlotte County resources readers use.

  • Operate the site and maintain acceptable performance
  • Send search requests to the selected partner service
  • Measure which pages visitors find useful
  • Detect and correct technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy on Linked Websites

Links may lead to the CCSO arrest database, jail and corrections pages, public-records portals, court systems, or outside search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of data.

Advertising providers may use their own systems to follow activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking takes place under the provider's practices, not this notice alone.


Limited Data Sharing

We do not sell personal data. Information may be available to these parties only as needed for the stated function:

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Services that provide site analytics
  • Advertising networks that serve ads
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard safeguards suited to a public information site. No internet-connected service is fully secure, so we cannot guarantee that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than 18

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted personal data so we can review and delete it.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify the request, you may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Delete personal data where the law permits
  • Stop certain kinds of processing

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as the site or its services change. A revised version will be posted here with a new effective date.
