Privacy Notice

This notice describes what Wright County Busted Mugshots collects, how that information is used, and the limited circumstances in which it may be shared. It covers searches sent through partner tools, direct messages, routine technical records, cookies, and links to outside services. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search Tools

When you type a name, place, or other term into a search tool, that query is transmitted to the third-party provider operating the tool. Wright County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or contact form message, we keep the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share that correspondence outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Routine Technical Information

Like most websites, our systems can collect basic technical details when a page loads. Those details may include:

  • Your Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when available
  • Date and time stamps

Cookies and Browser Controls

Cookies help us understand how visitors move through the site and whether features work as expected. You may block or remove cookies through your browser settings. Some site functions may respond differently when cookies are disabled.


Why We Use Information

Information collected through the site may be used to:

  • Keep pages available and performing well
  • Send search requests to the appropriate partner service
  • Understand which resources visitors find useful
  • Diagnose errors and repair technical problems
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Privacy on Linked Websites

Wright County Busted Mugshots links to the Wright County Sheriff's Office and jail resources, Iowa Courts, Iowa Department of Corrections pages, federal locators, city resources, and third-party search services. Once you follow a link, the destination's own privacy terms control its collection and handling of data.

Advertising providers may use technology on their own systems to recognize activity across websites and tailor advertising. That tracking is performed under the provider's practices, not by this site.


When Information May Be Shared

We do not sell personal information. Data may be available to a limited group of service providers or public authorities when needed:

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure site activity
  • Advertising networks serving or measuring advertisements
  • Law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Security Has Practical Limits

We use standard safeguards intended to protect the information within our control. No website, network, storage system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed fully secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than Eighteen

The site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under eighteen. If a minor has submitted personal data, a parent or guardian may use the Contact Us page to ask that it be deleted.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify the request, you may:

  • Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Ask that eligible information be erased
  • Opt out of certain processing where that choice applies

Send a request through the Contact Us page. Requests involving records held by Wright County, Iowa Courts, IDOC, or another linked source must go to that record custodian.


Revisions to This Notice

We may revise this Privacy Notice as our practices or legal obligations change. The updated wording and a new effective date will be posted on this page.
