Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
When you enter a name, location, or other term into a search tool, the query passes to the third-party company that operates that tool. Barton County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy practices apply to the information it receives.
Messages Sent to Us
If you email us or submit a contact form, we retain the message and the contact details needed to answer it. We do not disclose a message outside our organization unless the law requires us to do so.
Automatic Technical Information
A visit can produce routine technical and usage records. Depending on the service involved, those records may include:
- Your Internet Protocol address
- Your browser type and version
- Your device category and operating system
- The pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when available
- The date and time of each request
Cookie Controls
Cookies help show how visitors use the site. You may block or remove cookies through your browser settings, although some site functions may then work differently or become unavailable.
Reasons We Use Data
- Operate the site and maintain reasonable speed
- Send search requests to the appropriate partner service
- Understand which pages visitors find useful
- Detect, diagnose, and repair technical problems
- Present advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Websites Beyond Our Control
The site points to resources such as the Barton County Sheriff's Office and Detention Facility, Kansas Department of Corrections services, federal custody locators, court and government portals, local booking reports, and outside search tools. Once you follow a link, the destination's privacy policy governs its collection and use of information.
Some advertising companies may use their own technology to follow activity across different websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs on the advertising company's systems, not on systems controlled by Barton County Busted Mugshots.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be available to:
- Search partners that process a query you submit
- Analytics providers that measure site activity
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
- Law enforcement or other government bodies acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard safeguards intended to protect information under our control. No website, network, or Internet transmission is fully secure, however, so we cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent personal information, please use the Contact Us page to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and any limits that apply, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal information we hold about you
- Correct personal information that is inaccurate
- Erase personal information in our possession

Send a request through the Contact Us page. We may need enough information to identify the relevant record and verify the request.
