Information Visitors Send
Search entries
A name or location typed into a search widget is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Halifax County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If someone sends an email or contact message, the message and reply details may be kept so a response can be given. They are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.
Technical Data and Cookies
Each page load may produce ordinary technical information, such as:
- IP address
- browser and version
- device type and operating system
- pages visited and time spent
- referring site, if one is supplied
- timestamps
Cookies may be used to understand how visitors use the site. Browser controls can block them, though some functions may behave differently. The site may use analytics or advertising services that set their own cookies and policies.
How Information Is Used
Information may be used to keep the site available, route a search request to the correct partner, learn which pages are useful, diagnose technical problems, and show advertising that may relate to visitor interests. The site does not host HCSO records, city arrest logs, court files, NCDAC profiles, or booking-photo galleries.
Links to Other Services
Pages link to the HCSO inmate-search landing page, Halifax County Detention, municipal police pages, Enfield's arrest log, NC Courts, NCDAC, BOP, ICE, NC Archives, Crime Stoppers, local news, and third-party search or index pages. After a visitor follows a link, the destination's privacy policy and data practices govern. Halifax County Busted Mugshots does not control those systems.
Advertising partners may track activity across sites for targeted advertising on their own systems. That activity is governed by their policies, not by this page's control.
Who May Receive Information
Personal information is not sold by this site. It may be received by:
- search partners that handle a submitted query
- analytics services
- advertising networks
- law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Practices
Reasonable, standard security practices are used, but no internet-connected system is completely secure. This site cannot promise that information will never be accessed, lost, or exposed through an event beyond its control.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent personal information, a parent or guardian may use the contact route to request deletion.
Your Information Choices
- Ask for a copy of personal information held by this site.
- Ask for an inaccurate item to be corrected.
- Ask for deletion where applicable.
- Opt out of certain processing where that choice is available.
Requests should identify the information and a way to reply. A request may not cover data held by HCSO, a police department, the Halifax clerk, NCDAC, or an outside search provider. Those requests must go to the organization that controls the record.
Changes to This Notice
This notice may be revised as the site or its providers change. A revised copy will appear here with a new effective date when a material update is made.
