Information You Submit
Queries Sent to Search Providers
A name or place entered in a search tool is transmitted to the independent provider that operates that tool. Howard County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those query terms on its own system. The provider’s privacy rules apply to its handling of the request.
Messages Sent to Us
If you email or submit a message, we retain the information needed to respond. We do not share the message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

How We Use Information
Collected data supports ordinary operation of this Howard County records guide.
- Operate and improve site speed
- Send a search to the selected partner service
- Measure which guides are useful
- Diagnose errors and security issues
- Display advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Official and Outside Websites
Links may lead to the Howard County Sheriff’s Office roster and records page, Indiana MyCase, Indiana SAVIN, corrections resources, federal locators, or independent search services. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy controls.
Advertising partners may measure activity across websites to select ads. That processing occurs on their systems, not in Howard County government systems or records.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be processed by search partners handling a query, analytics providers, advertising networks, or law-enforcement and government bodies acting under a valid legal order.
Security Practices
Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used. No internet service can promise perfect security, so we cannot guarantee that a system will never be breached.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian may use the Contact Us page to request deletion of information a minor submitted.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law and verification, a person may ask for a copy of personal data we hold, correction of inaccurate data, deletion, or an opt-out from certain processing. These rights concern data held by this private site, not public records maintained under Indiana’s Access to Public Records Act, IC 5-14-3.
Changes to This Notice
This notice may be revised as site practices or legal requirements change. A new version takes effect when posted here with its updated effective date.
