Nye County Privacy Policy

This policy describes the information Nye County Busted Mugshots receives, how it may be used or shared, and the choices available to visitors. By using the site, a visitor accepts these practices. This policy concerns this private resource, not the separate privacy practices of Nye County, the Sheriff’s Office, courts, Nevada S.A.V.E., or another linked service.

Information submitted by a visitor

Search terms

A name, location, or other entry placed in a search tool is passed to the independent provider that operates that tool. Nye County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. A partner’s use of submitted search information is controlled by that partner’s privacy policy.

Messages

If a visitor sends a message through a contact method made available by this site, the message and the information supplied with it may be retained to respond. The site does not share those messages outside its organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical data and cookies

Like many websites, the site and its service providers may receive basic technical information when a page loads. That information can include:

  • Internet Protocol address
  • browser type and version
  • device type and operating system
  • pages viewed and time spent on those pages
  • referring page or site, when available
  • date and time of the visit

Cookies and similar tools

Cookies and related technologies help measure how the site is used and support basic functionality. A visitor can block or remove cookies through browser settings, although some site features or third-party tools may then work differently.


How information is used

Information collected directly or automatically may be used for ordinary site operations and improvement, including the following purposes:

  • operating, maintaining, and improving the site
  • passing a submitted query to the relevant search-partner service
  • understanding which pages and official resource links visitors find useful
  • identifying, investigating, and correcting technical problems
  • displaying advertising that may be based on general interests

External websites and advertising

The site links to official sheriff, county, court, corrections, and records pages, as well as outside search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s own privacy policy and practices apply. Nye County’s public-record process is governed by Nevada NRS Chapter 239, but this private site neither operates that process nor receives the records requested from it.

Advertising partners may use their own technologies to observe activity across websites and to present interest-based ads. Such activity is governed by the advertiser’s systems and policies rather than by this site.


Who may receive information

Nye County Busted Mugshots does not sell personal information. Information may nevertheless be disclosed or made available to the following parties when necessary for the stated purpose:

  • search partners that process a submitted search query
  • analytics providers that help measure site use
  • advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
  • law-enforcement agencies or other government bodies when required by a valid legal order

Security practices

Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information handled by the site. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, however, and no method of transmission, storage, or processing is guaranteed to be breach-proof.


Visitors under 18

This site is intended for adults and is not directed to people under 18. It does not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If a minor has provided personal information, a parent or guardian may ask that it be deleted through the Contact Us page.


Choices about personal information

Subject to applicable law and the information actually held, a visitor may request to:

  • receive a copy of personal information retained by the site
  • correct information that is inaccurate
  • ask for deletion of personal information
  • opt out of certain processing where that option applies

Requests concerning information held by this site can be sent through the Contact Us page. Requests for government records must be sent to the responsible agency, not to this site.


Policy changes

This policy may be revised as site practices, services, or legal requirements change. Any updated version will be posted here with a revised effective date.
