Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information collected when someone visits Johnson County Busted Mugshots, how that information is used, and the limited situations in which it may be shared. By continuing to use the site, a visitor accepts the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

A name or location entered into a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. Johnson County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

Emails and Other Messages

If you send an email or contact message, we retain it as needed to respond. We do not disclose that correspondence outside the organization unless the law requires it.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Ordinary server, analytics, and advertising systems may record basic technical details when a page loads:

  • Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when available
  • Date and time stamps

Cookie Use

Cookies help measure how visitors use the site. A browser can reject or delete them, although blocking cookies may cause some features to work differently.


Reasons We Use Data

Collected information is used only for operating and improving the service:

  • Maintain site speed and availability
  • Send search requests to the selected partner
  • Understand which pages visitors find useful
  • Diagnose and correct technical faults
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy Beyond This Website

Links may lead to the Johnson County jail roster, Sheriff's Office pages, Iowa court and corrections portals, federal locators, or outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's privacy policy controls.

Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs under the partner's practices, not this notice alone.


Limited Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information. Data may be provided only to these categories of recipients:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Services that provide traffic analytics
  • Advertising networks
  • Law enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order

Security Practices

We use standard safeguards suited to an informational website. No internet-connected service is completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.


Visitors Under Age 18

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


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law, you may ask us to:

  • Provide a copy of personal data we hold
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Delete personal data where required
  • Stop certain forms of processing
