Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
When you type a name or location into a search tool, the query passes to the third-party company operating that tool. San Joaquin County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy rules apply to its collection and processing.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
A page request can produce routine log and usage details. These records help deliver the site, understand basic traffic, and diagnose faults.
- The internet protocol address used for the request
- The browser name and version
- The device class and operating system
- The pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring page or website, when supplied
- The date and time of the request
Cookie Use
Cookies help measure how visitors use the site and may support advertising or basic features. You may block or delete cookies through your browser controls. Some functions may work differently after cookies are disabled.
Reasons We Use Information
Information is used only for operating, assessing, and supporting the site and its connected services.
- Keep pages available, stable, and responsive

Privacy Beyond This Site
Links may lead to the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s roster, booking feeds, California corrections pages, other government portals, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the destination’s privacy notice and terms control its handling of information.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That cross-site tracking occurs through the partner’s technology, not through a database of searches maintained by this site.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Depending on how you use the site, limited data may be received or processed by these parties:
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks that serve or assess ads
- Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard administrative and technical practices intended to protect information under our control. No website, network, storage method, or internet transmission can be guaranteed secure. We therefore cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.
Adults Only
This site is intended for people who are at least 18 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal data from a minor. If you believe a person under 18 submitted information, use the Contacts page to request review and deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Applicable law may give you choices concerning personal information we hold. A verified request may seek to:
- Receive a copy of personal data held about you
- Correct personal information that is inaccurate
- Ask for deletion where the law permits it
- Opt out of processing that is subject to an opt-out right
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this Privacy Notice as site practices or legal duties change. A revised version becomes available on this page with an updated effective date when it is posted.
