Information You Provide
Search requests
A name, location, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Merrick County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s own privacy terms govern its handling of the submitted request.
Messages you send
If you email us or use an available contact method, we may retain the message and its contact details so we can respond. We do not share that correspondence outside our organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.

Links and Advertising Partners

Security Practices
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards for the information we handle. No internet-connected system can promise complete security, however, and no method of transmission or storage is guaranteed to prevent every unauthorized access.
