Information You Provide
Search terms
When a visitor enters a name, place, or other term into a search tool supplied by a third party, that query is sent to the provider operating the tool. Franklin County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s own privacy terms apply to its service and any account created there.
Messages
If you email us or send a contact message, we may keep the information supplied so that we can read and respond to the request. We do not share message content outside our organization unless disclosure is legally required.

Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand how visitors use the site. Browser controls can block or remove cookies, although some functions may behave differently when those controls are used.

Outside Sites and Advertising
Franklin County Busted Mugshots links to official Franklin County custody resources, sheriff and court pages, Ohio records resources, and outside search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy policy, security practices, and terms govern that visit. We do not control those sites.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and deliver interest-based advertising. That tracking takes place under the advertising partner’s practices, not under this Privacy Notice.
