Information Sent Directly
Search terms
A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is passed to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Edgecombe County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
An email or contact message is kept long enough to read, respond, and handle the request. It is not shared outside the operating organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal order.
Technical Data and Cookies
Routine page requests can produce technical information used to deliver and protect the service.
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages visited and time spent
- Referring site, if supplied
- Request timestamps
Cookie choices
Cookies may help measure how visitors use the pages. Browser settings can block or delete them, although some features may behave differently when cookies are refused.
How Data Is Used
Collected information may be used to keep the pages available, route a search to the selected partner, understand which content is useful, diagnose faults, and display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor. These uses do not make the site a custodian of Edgecombe County jail, court, or sheriff records.
Links and Advertising
The pages link to ECSO Citizen Connect, the Edgecombe County Sheriff’s Office, North Carolina courts, NCDAC, federal locators, local police, news outlets, and outside search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy policy and data practices apply.
Some advertising partners may track activity across different sites for targeted advertising. That tracking occurs on the partners’ systems, not as a promise that this site controls their methods.
Who May Receive Data
Personal data is not sold by this site. It may be handled by the following parties when needed to provide a feature or meet a legal duty.
- Search partners that process an entered query
- Analytics services that measure page use
- Advertising networks
- Law-enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Security Efforts
Reasonable standard safeguards are used for information within the operator’s control. No internet-connected system is fully secure, and this policy does not promise that data will never be exposed through an attack, error, or event outside reasonable control.
Visitors Under 18
The service is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, a parent or guardian may use the contact route to ask for its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity checks, a person may ask about information held about them.
- Request a copy of held personal data
- Ask for an inaccurate detail to be corrected
- Request deletion where applicable
- Object to or opt out of certain processing
Policy Changes
This policy may be revised as tools, law, or data practices change. The updated version will appear here with a new effective date or other notice of change.
