Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice describes the information that may be handled through Worth County Busted Mugshots, a privately operated reference service. It explains what can pass through the search widget, what may arrive in a contact message, how routine technical data and cookies may be used, and what choices may be available. Government agencies linked from these pages have their own policies and control their own systems.

Information That May Be Collected

A search query entered into a sponsored or partner search box may be sent directly to the third-party provider that powers that box. That provider may receive the query, the selected state or record category, browser details, and information needed to return a result. Worth County Busted Mugshots does not control the partner's data practices or retain a partner's records unless the provider separately says it does.

A message sent through a contact route may include the sender's name, email address, message text, and any files the sender chooses to include. The service may also receive technical details automatically, such as an IP address, browser type, device information, approximate location derived from the connection, referring page, and request time.


How Information Is Used

Information may be used to display requested pages, answer service questions, maintain security, diagnose broken links, measure page use, prevent abuse, and understand which reference content is useful. Contact information may be used to reply to a message or maintain a record of the exchange. Search queries are handled according to the partner provider's terms when a third-party tool receives them.

The service does not make custody decisions or decide the outcome of a Worth County case. A search on these pages does not change a sheriff, jail, court, GDC, BOP, or ICE record.


Cookies and Similar Tools

The service or its vendors may use cookies, pixels, local storage, or related technologies to remember preferences, keep a page working, measure traffic, prevent fraud, or deliver and measure advertising. Some tools may be set by an outside provider rather than by this service. Browser controls can block or delete cookies, although a page feature may then work less well.

Advertising and analytics providers may link a technical identifier to visits on this service and other sites according to their own policies. Review the provider's current notice before using a sponsored search box or accepting optional cookies.


Sharing and Disclosure

Information may be received by search partners that process a query, hosting and security providers, analytics vendors, advertising networks, and service providers helping operate the pages. A contact message may be shared with a vendor when that is needed to deliver or secure the service. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, court order, subpoena, or a lawful request from a government agency. Emergency disclosure may occur when needed to protect people or property.

Links to the Worth County Sheriff's Office, led by Sheriff Don Whitaker, the Worth County Jail booking interface, city governments, Georgia Courts, the Georgia Department of Corrections, BOP, ICE, news outlets, and private publishers lead to separate services. Their collection, storage, and use of information are governed by their own notices. A link is not a transfer of official custody records from one system to another.


Security and Retention

Reasonable administrative and technical steps may be used to protect information, but no internet transmission or storage system is guaranteed secure. Access to contact messages and technical logs may be limited to people or vendors who need it for operation, support, security, or legal compliance.

Retention depends on the reason information was collected. Technical logs may be kept for security and measurement. Contact messages may be kept for response, recordkeeping, or dispute handling. Partner providers set their own retention periods for search queries. No retention period on this page changes the sheriff's, court's, or corrections agency's public-record schedule.


Children and User Choices

This service is not directed to children under 18. Do not send a minor's confidential record or personal details through a contact message. Government youth-record rules remain with the responsible agency.

Depending on applicable law, a person may ask what personal information is held, request correction of a service contact record, ask for deletion where no legal exception applies, object to a use, or withdraw consent for an optional cookie. A request may need identity verification. These choices do not alter a public record held by Worth County, a city, a court, GDC, BOP, ICE, or another source agency.


Changes to This Notice

This notice may be revised when the service, vendors, legal requirements, or data practices change. The revised version takes effect when posted with a new effective date or updated wording. Continued use after an update means the revised notice governs future use, subject to rights that cannot be waived.

Privacy questions can be directed through the Contact Us page. Do not send a request there expecting a government office to confirm custody or release an official record.
