Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information collected when someone uses Johnson County Busted Mugshots, the reasons it may be used, and the limited circumstances in which another party may receive it. It also explains how search tools, cookies, advertising, analytics, and links to outside services affect privacy. By continuing to use the site, a visitor accepts the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

A name, location, or other term entered into a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Johnson County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's policy governs its handling of the query.

Emails and Contact Messages

When someone sends an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read the request and respond. We do not disclose that correspondence outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal process.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, our systems and service providers may record basic technical details when a page loads. These records help deliver the site, measure use, and diagnose faults.

  • The internet protocol address used for the visit
  • Browser name, browser type, and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages opened and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when available
  • The date and time of each request

Browser Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and to support advertising or analytics features. Most browsers allow a person to block or delete cookies. Some functions may work differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

Collected data is used only for ordinary site operations and related services.

  • Deliver pages and maintain reliable performance
  • Send a search request to the selected partner
  • Understand which resources visitors find useful
  • Locate errors, abuse, and technical failures
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Links and Outside Services

Johnson County Busted Mugshots links to resources such as the BSRDC roster, Paintsville and sheriff pages, Kentucky Department of Corrections services, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows an outside link, that destination's privacy notice and data practices apply.

Advertising partners may use their own technology to recognize activity across different websites and select interest-based ads. That processing takes place on the partner's systems, not on systems controlled by this site.


When Data May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Information may pass to a limited group of providers or authorities when needed for the functions described in this notice.

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure site activity
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads
  • Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information against unauthorized access or loss. No website, network, storage system, or internet transmission is completely secure. We therefore cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than 18

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contacts page to request review and deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Depending on the law that applies, a person may make the following requests about personal information held by us.

  • Ask for a copy of the personal data we maintain
  • Request correction of inaccurate information
  • Ask for deletion where the law permits it
  • Object to or opt out of certain processing

A request applies only to information controlled by Johnson County Busted Mugshots. BSRDC, KY DOC, government offices, search partners, and other linked services handle requests under their own policies and legal duties.


Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as practices, services, or legal requirements change. A revised version becomes available on this page with a new effective date when posted.
