Information You Provide
Search entries
When a visitor types a name, location, or other search entry into a search tool, that entry is sent to the independent provider operating the tool. Russell County Busted Mugshots does not keep a separate log of those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you send a message or submit information through a contact method made available on the site, we may retain the contents and the contact details supplied to respond. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Like many websites, the site and its service providers may collect routine technical information when a page is loaded. This helps operate the pages, understand reliability issues, and measure general use.
- Internet protocol address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them
- The referring website, when one is supplied
- Visit dates and timestamps
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools can help show how visitors move through the site. Most browsers allow cookies to be limited or blocked. Choosing to do so may change how some features perform.
How Information Is Used
We use available information to operate and improve this records guide, not to maintain official custody files.
- Keep the site available and responsive
- Pass a search request to the selected partner tool
- Understand which pages visitors find useful
- Diagnose and correct technical problems
- Display advertising that may be based on general interests
Other Websites and Services
The guide links to official SWVRJA and Virginia resources, including jail and custody locators, records-request pages, court portals, and other public sources. It may also contain independent search tools. Once you leave this site or use a partner tool, that organization’s privacy notice and practices apply.
Advertising partners may collect activity across websites for interest-based advertising through their own technology. That activity is governed by the partner’s systems and policies, not by this site’s privacy notice.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Information may nonetheless be handled by the limited categories of recipients needed to run the site or to meet a lawful obligation.
- Search partners processing a query submitted to their tool
- Analytics providers that help measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver advertisements
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure
Security Practices
We use reasonable safeguards intended to protect information under our control. No online transmission, storage service, or internet-connected system can be guaranteed completely secure, so we cannot promise that a security incident will never occur.
