Privacy Notice

Curious what happens to your details when you browse Hertford County Busted Mugshots? This notice covers it plainly. It describes what the site may receive when you visit a page, run a search, or send a message, along with how that information gets used and who might see it. Nothing here is complicated. Sticking around after reading counts as your okay with these practices.

Information You Choose to Send

Search Terms

Type a name or a location into a search widget and that query goes straight to the outside company running the tool. The site itself keeps no log of your search words.

Messages to the Site

Emails and contact messages are a different matter. Those may be kept. The reason is simple: they need to be read and answered. They stay inside the organization. Only a law or valid legal process can force their disclosure.


Technical Details and Cookies

Each page load can leave ordinary technical traces with the hosting, analytics, advertising, or security services behind the site. That data may cover:

  • IP address;
  • browser name and version;
  • device type and operating system;
  • pages viewed and time spent on each;
  • the referring site, when one is supplied; and
  • date and time stamps.

Cookie Choices

Cookies and similar tools help show how visitors move through the site. Your browser can block them. It can delete them too. Turn them off, though, and some features may behave differently.


How We Use Collected Information

Whatever gets collected serves routine site operations. Nothing here is used to judge any person. Typical uses include:

  • keeping the site available and responsive;
  • sending a search request to the proper partner service;
  • learning which pages are useful to visitors;
  • diagnosing errors, abuse, and technical faults; and
  • displaying advertising that may relate to a visitor’s interests.

Government and Outside Links

Links from this site point to the Hertford County Sheriff's Office and Detention Center, the NC Courts Portal, the NC Department of Adult Correction, plus BOP and ICE locator pages, and sometimes outside search tools. Their rules take over once you click away. Each destination's own privacy notice governs there. This site has no control over its content, uptime, or data handling.

Some advertising partners watch activity across many websites. They do it to power interest-based ads. That tracking runs on their systems. No promise is made here about managing their settings for you.


Who May Receive Information

Personal data is never sold by this site. Certain parties can still receive information when their function calls for it or the law demands it:

  • search partners that process a submitted query;
  • analytics providers that measure site use;
  • advertising networks and their service providers; and
  • law-enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order.

Security Is a Best Effort

Ordinary, sensible security practices apply here. That is the standard for any internet site. Still, no connected system is fully safe. Exposure, interception, or a security incident can never be ruled out completely.


Visitors Under 18

This site is built for adults. Nothing is knowingly collected from anyone under 18. If a minor did send personal information, a parent or guardian can visit the Contact Us page and request its deletion.


Your Privacy Requests

Within applicable limits, you can find out what information is held about you and get an answer through the Contact Us page. You can also ask that we:

  • provide a copy of information we hold;
  • correct inaccurate information;
  • delete information that can lawfully be erased; or
  • stop or limit certain processing where an opt-out is available.

Changes to This Notice

Expect this notice to change over time. The site and its services will evolve. Revisions appear right here with a new effective date. Keep using the site after an update, and the posted version governs from then on.
