Cape Girardeau Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice describes the information Cape Girardeau County Busted Mugshots receives, how it is used, and the limited circumstances in which it may be shared. By browsing or using a search tool on the site, you accept these practices. This notice applies to this privately operated service, not to the separate government offices, news publishers, or search providers linked from it.

Information You Provide

Search entries

When a name, location, or similar term is entered into a search tool, that query is passed to the third-party provider operating the tool. Cape Girardeau County Busted Mugshots does not store or retain those precise search terms on its own systems.

Messages sent to us

Information included in an email or contact-form submission, such as a name, email address, and message, may be kept so the inquiry can be answered. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data and Cookies

Like most online services, the site and its service providers may receive routine technical information when a page is loaded. That information helps operate the service and diagnose performance problems.

  • Internet protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • Referring site, when one is available
  • Visit date and time

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools can help measure how visitors use the service. A browser can be set to block or remove cookies, but doing so may change how some features work.


How Information Is Used

Information is used for ordinary service and administration purposes, including the following:

  • Maintain the site's operation and performance
  • Send a search request to the appropriate partner service
  • Understand which content visitors find useful
  • Identify and correct technical errors
  • Display advertising that may relate to visitor interests

External Services and Links

Links may lead to a county jail roster, a sheriff or corrections office, a government portal, a court resource, a news outlet, or an outside search tool. Once a visitor follows a link, that separate service's privacy practices apply. Cape Girardeau County Busted Mugshots does not control its content, availability, or handling of information.

Some advertising partners may collect activity across websites on their own systems to deliver interest-based advertising. Missouri's public-records rules, including RSMo ยง610.023, address how an agency custodian responds to records requests. They do not set the privacy practices for this private service or for an outside search provider.


When Data May Be Shared

Personal information is not sold. It may be available to the following limited categories of recipients when needed for the purposes described in this notice:

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that serve ads
  • Law enforcement or government authorities responding to a valid legal order

Security Practices

Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect information. No internet-connected system is completely secure, however, and no method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed free from every unauthorized access or breach.


Visitors Under 18

The service is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a parent or guardian believes a minor supplied personal information, they may request its deletion through the site's Get in Touch page.


Your Information Choices

Subject to applicable law and the information actually held, a visitor may ask to:

  • Receive a copy of personal information held about them
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Request deletion of personal information
  • Opt out of certain processing where that option applies

Changes to This Notice

This notice may be revised as the service or its practices change. A revised version takes effect when posted here and will carry an updated effective date.
