Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information handled when someone visits Antrim County Busted Mugshots, submits a search or message, or follows an outside link. It also explains why data may be used, when another party may receive it, and the choices available to visitors. Using the site means accepting these practices.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

A name, location, or other term entered in a search box is transmitted to the independent provider operating that tool. This site does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s policy controls its processing.

Messages Sent to Us

If you email us or submit a contact message, we retain the information needed to review and answer it. We do not share a message beyond our organization unless the law requires disclosure.


Technical Visit Information

Routine server, analytics, and advertising systems may automatically record:

  • Internet Protocol address;
  • browser name and version;
  • device category and operating system;
  • pages viewed and time spent on them;
  • the referring page or site, when available; and
  • the date and time of each request.

Cookies and Browser Controls

Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site and may support advertising. A browser can reject or delete cookies, although blocking them may cause some site or partner features to work differently.


Reasons We Use Data

  • Operate the site and maintain reasonable performance.
  • Send submitted searches to the selected partner service.
  • Understand which pages visitors find useful.
  • Diagnose errors and other technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests.

Outside Sites and Advertising

Links may lead to Antrim County Sheriff and jail pages, Michigan Department of Corrections resources, government portals, records systems, or independent search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy applies.

Some advertising companies may use their own technology to associate activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That processing occurs on the advertising partner’s systems, not this site’s systems.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be provided to:

  • search partners that process a submitted query;
  • analytics providers that measure site use;
  • advertising networks serving or measuring ads; and
  • law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies when disclosure is compelled by a valid legal order.

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information. No website, network, storage service, or internet transmission can be guaranteed secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Under Eighteen

This website is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted personal data may use the Contact Us page to request its deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and our ability to verify a request, a visitor may ask for a copy of personal data we hold, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion, or object to certain processing. These rights concern data controlled by this site. Records held under Michigan’s Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.231 et seq., and data controlled by an outside government office or partner must be addressed with that custodian.


Changes to This Notice

We may revise this notice as site practices or legal requirements change. An updated version becomes effective when posted here with a revised effective date.
