Information You Submit
Terms Sent Through Search
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is transmitted to the third-party company that powers that tool. Modoc County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy rules govern its handling of the query.

If you email or submit a contact message, we keep the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share that correspondence outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Outside Websites and Advertising

Reasonable Security Measures
Standard safeguards are used to protect information under our control. No internet service, storage platform, or transmission method can be promised as fully secure or breach-proof.
