Information Submitted Directly
Search entries
A name, place, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the outside provider operating that tool. Roscommon County Busted Mugshots does not store or keep a log of those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or other message to the site, the message and the information supplied with it may be retained to respond and maintain the correspondence. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data and Cookies
Like most websites, the service may receive routine technical information when a page loads. This information helps operate, secure, and understand the site.
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on a page
- Referring website, when one is supplied
- Date and time information
Cookie choices
Cookies may be used to measure how visitors use the service. A browser can be set to block or remove cookies, although some site functions may work differently after that choice.
How Information Is Used
Collected information supports ordinary site operations and improvement. It may be used to keep pages available, send a search request to the relevant partner, measure useful pages, diagnose technical problems, and display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor’s interests.
Linked Services and Advertising
The site links to sources such as the Roscommon County JailTracker, the County Controller, court pages, MDOC OTIS, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, that destination’s privacy notice and terms govern the visit.
Advertising partners may collect activity across websites for their own interest-based advertising systems. That collection occurs under the partner’s practices, not under this site’s control.
When Data May Be Shared
Roscommon County Busted Mugshots does not sell personal information. Information may be disclosed to the limited parties needed to provide or support the service, including search partners receiving a query, analytics providers, advertising networks, and government or law-enforcement bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information handled by the site. No internet-connected service can promise absolute security, however, and no method of transmission or storage is guaranteed to be breach-proof.
Visitors Under 18
This service is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has supplied information, a parent or guardian may request its deletion through the site’s available communication channel.
Choices and Data Requests
A visitor may ask for a copy of personal information the site holds, request correction of inaccurate information, ask for deletion, or opt out of certain processing where applicable. Requests should identify the information involved well enough to allow a response.
Michigan public records held by a government body are a separate matter. The state’s FOIA framework begins at MCL 15.231; a request for a Roscommon County public record follows the county’s official process, not this Privacy Notice.
Changes to This Notice
This Privacy Notice may be revised as the site changes. Any revision takes effect when it is posted here with an updated effective date.
