Information You Provide
Search Requests
When a name or location is entered into a search tool, the query is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Karnes County Busted Mugshots does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s own terms and privacy practices apply to the information it receives.
Messages
A message sent through a site contact channel may be retained so that a reply can be prepared or the request can be understood. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or is necessary to protect the site, its users, or the public.

Outside Websites and Ads
Karnes County Busted Mugshots links to official sources such as the Karnes County Sheriff’s Office, Karnes County Jail, court offices, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, as well as to third-party search services.
