Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes the information Haralson County Busted Mugshots receives, how it is used, and when it may be shared. Using the site means accepting these practices. The public-record links themselves, including the Haralson County Sheriff's Office booking portal, follow the policies of the agencies or providers that operate them.

Information Sent by Visitors

Search Terms

A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Haralson County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own servers. The provider may keep and use the submission under its own privacy policy.

Messages and Email

If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the message and reply address are retained as needed to respond and manage the exchange. They are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or needed to address a legal or security matter.


Technical Data Collected

Like most public web pages, a page request can create routine technical records. The information may include:

  • IP address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages viewed and the time spent on them
  • Referring site, when one is supplied
  • Request timestamps

Cookies and Similar Tools

Cookies may help measure how visitors use the site and support basic functions. Browser settings can block or delete cookies. Some features, including partner tools, may behave differently when those files are disabled.


Why We Use Data

Routine information is used for limited site operations, including:

  • Keeping the pages available and responsive
  • Sending a search request to the selected partner tool
  • Understanding which pages are useful
  • Finding errors and technical problems
  • Showing advertising that may reflect a visitor's interests

Links and Outside Policies

Pages may link to the HCSO current roster, its 24-hour booking view, the arrest-date search, Georgia Courts and PeachCourt, the GDC offender locator, the Bureau of Prisons locator, the ICE Online Detainee Locator, and other public-record resources. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination's own privacy notice and data practices control.

Advertising partners may also observe activity across different sites to tailor advertisements. That tracking occurs on the partners' systems, not as a promise that Haralson County Busted Mugshots controls their profiles or retention practices.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold by this site. It may be handled by the following groups when needed to operate the service:

  • Search partners that process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks and their service providers
  • Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Security Limits

Reasonable security practices are used for the service, but no internet-connected system is completely secure. Haralson County Busted Mugshots cannot promise that transmission, storage, or a partner service will be free from every breach, error, or unauthorized access.


Visitors Under 18

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor sent personal information, a parent or guardian may use the Contacts page to ask that it be deleted.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and the limits of records already sent to an outside provider, a visitor may ask to:

  • Receive a copy of personal data held by this site
  • Correct inaccurate contact information
  • Request deletion of information held here
  • Opt out of certain uses where an opt-out is available

Requests should identify the information at issue and use the Contacts page. A request to this site cannot erase a submission already held by a search partner, advertising network, government agency, or other linked service.


Policy Changes

This policy may be revised as the site or its service partners change. A new version will be posted here with its effective date. Continued use after an update means the revised practices apply from that date forward.
