Information You Provide
Search terms
When you enter a name, location, or other query into a search tool, that information is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Stevens County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you send an email or other message to us, we keep the information needed to read and respond to it. We do not disclose those messages outside our organization unless a legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Technical Data and Cookies
Like most websites, our systems and service providers may receive routine technical information when a page loads.
- Internet protocol address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on them.
- Referring website, when one is provided.
- Dates and times of visits.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies help us understand site use and support ordinary site functions. You can limit cookies through browser settings, though doing so may change how some features perform.
How We Use Information
We use available data to operate and improve the site, rather than to create or maintain official criminal-justice records.
- Maintain the site’s performance and core functions.
- Pass a submitted query to the appropriate search partner.
- Understand which resources visitors use.
- Diagnose errors and protect against misuse.
- Display advertising that may be relevant to a visitor’s interests.
Outside Websites and Services
Links may lead to Sheriff, jail, court, corrections, public-records, or third-party search resources. Once you leave this site, the receiving organization’s terms and privacy practices apply. For example, a county public-record request is governed by the agency route and Washington’s Public Records Act, chapter 42.56 RCW, not by this notice.
Advertising providers may collect activity across websites on their own systems to tailor advertisements. Stevens County Busted Mugshots does not control the information practices of those outside services.
When Information May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Information may nevertheless be handled by limited recipients needed to provide the site or meet a legal duty.
- Search partners that process submitted searches.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that deliver advertisements.
- Law enforcement or government authorities when a valid legal order requires it.
Security Practices
We use reasonable, standard safeguards intended to protect information in our control. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, so we cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, lost, or altered.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor supplied personal information, use the Contacts page to request its deletion.

You may ask about information we hold by using the Contacts page. Subject to applicable law and verification, you may request the following.
- A copy of personal information we retain about you.
- Correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Deletion of personal information, where applicable.
