Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
When you enter a name or location in a search box, the query is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Leon County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's separate privacy terms govern its handling of the query.
Messages Sent to Us
If you email us or submit a contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share that message outside our organization unless the law requires disclosure.

Privacy Beyond This Website
Links may lead to the Leon County Sheriff's Office, the Leon County Clerk, the Florida Department of Corrections, other government portals, or outside search tools. After you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.

We use customary safeguards intended to protect information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. No website, network, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure, so we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
