Information Sent Directly
Search terms
A name, place, or other text entered into a search widget is passed to the third-party provider operating that tool. Northampton County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own system through the widget. The provider’s privacy notice controls what happens after submission.
Messages
Email or contact messages are kept long enough to read, respond, and maintain a reasonable record of the exchange. They are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is needed by law or to address a legal or safety matter.
Technical Data and Cookies
Routine page requests can produce technical details such as:
- IP address
- Browser name and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent
- Referring page, if supplied
- Request timestamps
Cookie use
Cookies may help measure how visitors use the pages, keep features working, and support basic analytics. Browser controls can block cookies. Some features may act differently when they are disabled.
How Data Is Used
Information may be used to:
- Keep the service available and responsive
- Send a search request to the selected partner tool
- Understand which pages are useful
- Find errors and security or performance issues
- Display advertising that may relate to browsing activity
Links and Outside Providers
Pages link to the Northampton Sheriff’s Office, county court pages, eCourts, NCDAC, federal locators, news outlets, and outside search tools. Once a visitor leaves this domain, the destination’s privacy policy and data practices apply. Northampton County Busted Mugshots does not control those services, their uptime, or their handling of information.
Some advertising partners can observe activity across websites on their own systems to tailor ads. That activity is governed by the partner’s notice, not by this site’s records.
Who May Receive Information
Personal data is not sold by Northampton County Busted Mugshots. It may be received by:
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure page use
- Advertising networks serving or measuring ads
- Law-enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure
Security Limits
Reasonable, standard safeguards are used for information under the service’s control. No internet-connected system is completely secure, so no promise can be made that data will never be accessed, lost, or disclosed through an incident.
Visitors Under 18
The service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent personal data, a parent or guardian may request its deletion through the published contact route.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, a visitor may ask to:
- Receive a copy of personal data held under the service’s control
- Correct inaccurate information
- Delete information where retention is not required
- Opt out of certain processing or communications
Requests should identify the information and the action sought. Search terms submitted to a partner must be addressed with that provider when the provider controls the data.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as the service, tools, or legal requirements change. The current version is posted here, and a new effective date may be added when a material update is made.
