Privacy Notice

This notice describes the information Adams County Busted Mugshots receives, why it is used, and the limited situations in which another party may receive it. It covers information supplied by a visitor, routine technical details collected during a visit, cookies, and outside services. By continuing to use the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

When a name, place, or other term is entered in a search box, the query is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. Adams County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy terms apply to its handling of the query.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or a message through a contact form, we keep the details needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal order.

  • The internet protocol address associated with the request
  • The browser name, type, and version
  • The device category and operating system
  • The pages viewed and time spent on them
  • The referring website, when one is supplied
  • The date and time tied to the visit

Browser Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand visits and remember how site features are used. You can block or delete cookies through browser controls. Some functions may work differently when cookies are disabled.

External Sites and Services

Links may lead to the ACSO inmate search, the Adams County Detention Facility, sheriff records forms, the Colorado Department of Corrections, Colorado courts, federal locators, news sources, or outside search providers. Once you leave this site, the receiving service's privacy policy controls. Public access to ACSO criminal-justice records is governed by Colorado's Criminal Justice Records Act, C.R.S. ยงยง 24-72-301 through 24-72-309, rather than this notice.

Advertising providers may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and tailor ads. That collection occurs through the provider's system, not through a booking-record database maintained here.

  • Search partners that process a submitted query

  • Law enforcement or another government body responding to a valid legal order
