Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice describes how Lee County Busted Mugshots handles information when someone searches for Florida public-record sources, browses a page, or sends a message. It identifies data supplied by a visitor, technical details collected automatically, the limited reasons that information is used, and the parties that may receive it. It also explains cookies, outside links, security limits, protections for minors, and available data choices. By continuing to use the site, a visitor accepts the practices stated here.

Information You Submit

Terms Entered in Search

A name, city, or other term entered into a search box is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates the search service. Lee County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s separate privacy practices govern the query after it is sent.

Messages Sent to Us

If you send an email or use a contact form, the message and any details you choose to include are retained as needed to read and answer the request. Contact submissions are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.


Technical Data Collected Automatically

Routine server, analytics, and browser technologies may record limited technical information when a page loads. This data helps show how the Lee County resource pages perform and does not come from an LCSO, FMPD, jail, or court record.

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

Cookie Controls

Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and which pages are useful. A browser can reject or remove cookies through its settings. Some functions may respond differently when cookies are blocked.


How Information Is Used

Collected information is used only for operating, understanding, and improving the service. Those purposes include the following:

  • Keeping pages available, stable, and responsive
  • Sending a search request to the correct partner service
  • Learning which Lee County and Florida source pages visitors use
  • Finding errors and resolving technical problems
  • Displaying advertising that may reflect a visitor’s interests

Privacy on Linked Websites

Links may lead to the Lee County Sheriff’s Office roster, city police pages, booking sources, Lee Clerk Matrix, Florida corrections resources, federal locators, news outlets, or third-party search tools. A record request can also leave the site for the LCSO Public Records Center. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy policy and data practices apply. Lee County Busted Mugshots does not set those outside terms.

Advertising partners may use their own technologies to recognize activity across different websites and select targeted advertising. That processing occurs on the partner’s systems, not on systems controlled by Lee County Busted Mugshots.


Parties That May Receive Data

Lee County Busted Mugshots does not sell personal information. Limited data may pass to service providers or public authorities in these circumstances:

  • Search partners that receive and process submitted queries
  • Analytics providers that measure visits and site performance
  • Advertising networks that deliver or evaluate advertisements
  • Law enforcement or another government body acting under a valid legal order

Reasonable Security Measures

Standard administrative and technical practices are used to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No website, connected system, or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed fully secure. Lee County Busted Mugshots therefore cannot promise that a breach will never occur.


Visitors Younger Than Eighteen

The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted personal data may use the Contact Us page to request deletion.


Your Information Choices

Subject to applicable Florida and federal law, a person may ask about personal information held directly by Lee County Busted Mugshots. Requests may seek to:

  • Receive a copy of personal data that is held
  • Correct information that is inaccurate
  • Delete information where an erasure request applies
  • Opt out of certain forms of processing

These requests concern data held by Lee County Busted Mugshots. Records maintained by LCSO, FMPD, the Lee Clerk, Florida agencies, or a linked provider must be addressed to that custodian.


Changes to This Notice

This Privacy Notice may be revised as services or practices change. Any revised wording will be posted on this page with an updated effective date so visitors can review the current version.
