A name, location, or other text entered into a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Brown County Busted Mugshots does not keep or create a separate log of those search terms on its own systems. The provider receiving a search request has its own terms and privacy practices.
Messages
If you send an email or use a contact form, we may keep the message and contact details needed to respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or needed to respond to the request.
