Queries entered in search tools
When you type a name, location, or other term into a search tool, the query is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Caroline County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider handles the query under its privacy practices.
Emails and contact messages
If you email us or submit a contact form, we retain the message and the contact details you supply so we can answer. We do not share that correspondence outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
