Information You Provide
Queries submitted to a partner
When you enter a name or location into a partner-powered search tool, that query is sent to the provider that operates the tool. Williams County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages you send
If you email us or submit a message, we keep the information needed to respond. We do not share a message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

- Advertising networks that provide or measure advertisements.
- Law enforcement or another government body when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
