Information You Provide
Partner Search Requests
When you enter a name, place, or other search information into a partner-powered tool, that request is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Lincoln County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems. The partner's privacy practices govern its handling of the request.
Messages Sent to Us
If you email us or submit a message, we may keep the information you provide so we can review and answer it. We do not disclose those messages outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law or needed to comply with a valid legal process.

How Information Is Used
We use information collected through the site for practical operating purposes, including the following:
- Operating, protecting, and improving the site's performance.
- Passing a requested search to the partner that provides the tool.
- Understanding which Lincoln County records-guide pages visitors find useful.

External Sites and Advertising
Our pages may link to sheriff, detention, court, corrections, federal locator, and search-partner resources. When you follow an external link, that operator's privacy notice and terms apply. We do not control its content, availability, or handling of your information.
Advertising providers may use their own technologies to measure activity across websites and deliver interest-based advertising. Any such activity occurs through those providers' systems and is subject to their separate policies.

We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared only with the limited categories below when necessary for the stated purpose:
- Search partners that process requests entered into their tools.
- Analytics vendors that help us assess site use and reliability.
- Advertising networks that provide ads or related measurement.
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information under our control. No internet-connected service can promise absolute security, so we cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed, altered, or lost.
