Information You Provide
Search entries
When a name, place, or other term is entered into a search tool, the query is sent to the independent provider operating that tool. Decatur County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you send an email or other contact message to us, we retain the information needed to respond. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
