Information Provided Directly
Search Entries
A name, location, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Lake of the Woods County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you email or otherwise send a message, the information in that message may be retained to respond and maintain the exchange. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for disclosure.

- Internet protocol address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and time spent on them.
- Referring site, when one is supplied.
- Date and time of the request.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use. Browser controls can limit or block cookies, although some functions may then behave differently.
How Information Is Used
- To operate and improve the site's speed and reliability.
- To pass a search request to the provider selected for that tool.

External Sources and Advertising
Links can lead to official public-record sources, court systems, corrections services, and independent search tools. Their privacy terms apply after you leave this site. Minnesota public-data classifications, including Minnesota Statutes Chapter 13 and section 13.82 for law-enforcement data, are applied by the responsible public authority and do not change through a link from this site.
Advertising partners may use their own technology to measure activity across websites and deliver interest-based advertising. That activity occurs under the partner's policies and systems.
Parties That May Receive Data
Personal information is not sold as a product. It can be processed or disclosed to the following limited categories when appropriate:
- Search partners that process submitted search entries.
- Analytics providers that measure site performance.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
- Government or law-enforcement bodies responding to a valid legal order.
Security Measures
Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information, but no internet-connected system can promise complete security. Use of the site is subject to that unavoidable risk.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If a minor has submitted information, contact the site to request its removal.
