Information You Provide
Search Entries
A name, place, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Benton County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s terms and privacy practices apply to the information submitted to it.
Messages
If a visitor sends a message or email to the site, the message and the information supplied with it may be kept to answer or address the communication. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or valid legal process.
Automatic Technical Information
Like most websites, the site and its service providers may receive ordinary technical data when a page is requested. That data can include:
- Internet Protocol address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on them.
- Referring page or service, when available.
- Date and time of the request.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools can help measure site use and remember routine preferences. A browser can be set to reject or remove cookies, although some features may then work differently or not work as intended.
How Site Information Is Used
Information is used for ordinary site operation, performance, and improvement. It may be used to:
- Keep pages available and responsive.
- Send a search request to the selected partner service.
- Understand which information visitors use.
- Detect, investigate, and correct technical problems.
- Display advertising that may be based on interests.
Outside Sites and Public Sources
Links may lead to a sheriff roster, a jail report, Oregon court services, corrections resources, government forms, or a third-party search provider. Once a visitor follows an outside link, that destination’s privacy terms and practices control. For example, agency disclosure of public records is governed by the official Oregon Public Records Law in ORS chapter 192, not by this Privacy Notice.
Advertising partners may also collect activity across websites under their own systems and policies to deliver interest-based advertising. Benton County Busted Mugshots does not control those outside systems.
Parties That May Receive Data
Benton County Busted Mugshots does not sell personal information. Limited information may be handled by the following parties when needed for the stated purposes:
- Search partners that process a submitted query.
- Analytics providers that measure site activity.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure advertisements.
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative and technical practices are used to protect information. No internet-connected system, transmission, or storage method is completely secure, so Benton County Busted Mugshots cannot promise that information will never be accessed, changed, or lost.
Visitors Under 18
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a parent or guardian believes a minor submitted personal information, they may request its deletion through the routes on the Contacts page.
Choices About Your Information
A visitor may ask about personal information held by the site by using the Contacts page. Subject to applicable law and verification, a visitor may:
- Request a copy of personal information held by the site.
- Ask to correct information that is inaccurate.
- Request deletion of information when appropriate.
- Opt out of certain processing where that option is available.
Changes to This Notice
This Privacy Notice may be revised as site practices change. A revised version takes effect when it is posted here, with an updated effective date where applicable.
