Information You Provide
Search requests
A name, location, or other term entered in a search tool is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Ralls County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages to the site
If you send an email or other contact message, we retain the information needed to respond. It is not shared outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
