Information Collected
When a name, location, or similar detail is entered into a search tool, the query goes to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Carroll County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. If you send a message, the message and the contact details supplied with it may be retained to respond.
Like most websites, the service may receive routine technical information when a page loads:
- Internet Protocol address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- Referring page, if one is available
- Date and time of the visit
Cookies may be used to understand site use and maintain site functions. Browser settings can restrict cookies, although certain features may work differently if they are blocked.
How Information Is Used
Technical information and messages may be used to operate and protect the service, route a search request to the selected provider, understand which pages people use, correct technical problems, and display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor’s interests.
Links, Tools, and Advertising
Links may lead to official sources such as the NRVRJ inmate lookup, the Carroll County Sheriff's Office, Virginia courts, VADOC, or a third-party search provider. Once you follow a link, that destination’s terms and privacy policy control its handling of data.
Advertising partners may collect activity across websites on their own systems to provide interest-based advertising. This site does not control those partners’ technologies or policies.
When Data May Be Shared
Personal information is not sold. It can be disclosed to the limited categories below when needed for the purposes described here or when the law requires disclosure.
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure site activity
- Advertising networks that serve advertising
- Law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order
Security and Young Visitors
Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information, but no internet-connected system can promise complete security. The service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted personal information, a parent or guardian may request its deletion through Get in Touch.
Your Information Choices
You may ask what personal information connected with a direct message is held, request correction of an error, ask for deletion where applicable, or ask to opt out of certain processing. Send that request through Get in Touch. A request cannot alter an official record held by the Sheriff, NRVRJ, a court, VADOC, or another public custodian.
Changes to This Notice
This notice may be revised as the service changes. Any revision takes effect when it is posted with the updated notice.
