Information Supplied Directly
Search Entries
When a visitor enters a name, place, or other query into a search tool, that entry is sent to the outside provider operating the tool. Hocking County Busted Mugshots does not keep a separate log of those search terms on its own systems. The provider's own privacy rules apply to the query after it is submitted.
Messages
Messages sent through a contact method may include a name, email address, and the information supplied by the sender. We retain that information as reasonably needed to respond or maintain a record of the exchange. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Automatic Technical Details
Like most web services, Hocking County Busted Mugshots may receive limited technical information when a page loads. This information helps operate and protect the service.
- Internet protocol address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them
- Referring website or link, when available
- Date and time records associated with the visit
Cookies
Cookies and similar browser tools may be used to understand how visitors use the service. A visitor can limit or block cookies through browser settings. Some features may work differently when those settings prevent cookies from being used.
How Information Is Used
Technical and communications data supports the ordinary operation of a records-reference service.
- Operate, maintain, and improve page performance
- Send a submitted query to the applicable search partner
- Understand which Hocking County records topics visitors use
- Detect, investigate, and correct technical problems
- Display advertising that may be based on interests
Links and Advertising Partners
Links may lead to the Southeastern Ohio Regional Jail roster, Hocking County Sheriff resources, Logan Police, Ohio courts, the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, that destination's privacy policy and data practices control. Hocking County Busted Mugshots does not control those outside systems.
Advertising partners may use their own technologies to measure activity across websites or tailor advertising. Those activities occur through the partner's systems, not through a Hocking County government records system or an agency database maintained by this service.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Information may be disclosed or processed by limited parties when needed for the functions described here.
- Search providers that receive a submitted query
- Analytics services used to assess site performance
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure advertising
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure
Security Practices
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information in our control. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed completely secure. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive material through an ordinary website message and should use an official agency channel for government records requests.
