Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information handled when someone visits New Haven County Busted Mugshots, sends a message, or uses an outside search tool. It also explains why data may be used, which service providers may receive it, and the choices available to a visitor. By continuing to use the site, you accept the practices stated here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

A name, city, or other detail entered into a search box is sent to the third-party company that operates that tool. New Haven County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those query terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy terms apply to its handling of the query.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain the message and reply details as needed to respond. We do not share that correspondence outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal process.


Technical Visit Information

Ordinary web systems may record limited technical and usage details when a page loads. This helps operate the site and diagnose faults.

  • The visitor's Internet Protocol address
  • Browser name and version
  • Device category and operating system
  • Pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when supplied
  • Date and time stamps for requests

Cookie Controls

Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site. A browser can reject or delete cookies. Blocking them may change how some site or partner features work.


Reasons We Use Data

Collected information is used only for site operation, service routing, improvement, and advertising functions.

  • Keep pages available and responsive
  • Send a search request to the selected partner service
  • Measure which pages help visitors
  • Detect and repair technical problems
  • Present advertising that may reflect visitor interests

Websites Beyond Our Control

Links may lead to Connecticut municipal police pages, CT DOC custody information, Judicial Branch dockets, federal locators, public-record request systems, and outside search tools. Connecticut arrest and court records remain with their official custodians under the rules that govern those offices. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.

Advertising companies may also use their own technology to recognize activity across different websites and select interest-based ads. That processing occurs on the advertising provider's systems, not on ours.


Parties That May Receive Data

We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be available to specific service providers or authorities for the purposes described in this notice.

  • Search partners that process a submitted query
  • Analytics providers that measure site use
  • Advertising networks that deliver ads
  • Law enforcement or government bodies acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

We use standard, reasonable practices intended to protect information in our control. No website, network, or online storage method is completely secure. We therefore cannot promise that an unauthorized access or security event will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than Eighteen

This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has submitted information, a parent or guardian may use the Contact Us page to request its deletion.


Your Information Choices

Subject to applicable law and any need to verify the request, a visitor may ask us about information held directly by this site.

  • Request a copy of personal data we retain
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of eligible information
  • Opt out of certain processing when that right applies

Changes to This Notice

We may revise this privacy notice as site practices or legal requirements change. An updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
