Information You Choose to Send
Terms Entered in Search
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Colusa County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's policy applies to the query after it is submitted.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. A message is not shared outside the organization unless responding requires it or disclosure is legally required.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may record technical facts when a page loads. That data can include:
- Your internet protocol address.
- Your browser name and version.
- Your device type and operating system.
- The pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when available.
- The date and time of the request.
Cookies and Similar Storage
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and may support advertising or basic preferences. Most browsers let you limit or delete cookies. Blocking them can cause some tools or site features to work differently.
Reasons Data Is Used
Collected data is used for limited operational and service purposes:
- Keeping pages available and responsive.
- Sending a search request to the selected partner.
- Learning which content visitors find useful.
- Finding errors, abuse, and technical faults.
- Displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Links and Outside Services
Links may lead to Sheriff and jail pages, VINE, city police offices, courts, corrections agencies, federal locators, news outlets, and outside search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy and terms control its collection and use of information.
Advertising providers may use their own technology to recognize activity across websites and select ads. That processing occurs through their systems, not through an official Colusa County records system.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Information may still be handled by:
- Search partners that process a submitted query.
- Analytics vendors that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order.
Security Has Practical Limits
Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used to protect data in our control. No internet service, storage system, or transfer method is fully secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
Use by People Under 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Get in Touch page to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity checks, you may ask for a copy of personal data we hold, request correction of an error, seek deletion, or object to certain processing. Requests can be submitted through the Get in Touch page. Data controlled by a search, analytics, or advertising provider must be addressed to that provider.
Changes to This Notice
This privacy notice may be revised as the site or its services change. An updated version takes effect when posted here with its new effective date.
