Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, city, or other term entered into a partner-powered search box is sent to the third party that operates that tool. Waterbury Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those query terms in its own records. The provider's privacy terms govern its handling of the submitted search.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or use a contact form, we retain the message and the contact details needed to respond. We do not share that submission outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.
Technical Data Collected Automatically

Other Websites and Services
Links may lead to WPD, the Connecticut public-record request portal, CT DOC, the Connecticut Judicial Branch, federal locators, or private search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination's own privacy policy controls its collection and use of data. An official public record obtained under the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act is held and processed by the government custodian, not by this site.
Advertising companies may use their own technology to observe activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs on their systems under their policies.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be provided to parties that perform the following roles:
- Search partners that process a query submitted to their tool.
- Analytics providers that measure site traffic and use.
- Advertising networks that deliver or assess ads.
- Law enforcement or another government body responding to a valid legal order.
Security Measures and Limits
We use standard safeguards suited to the information and services involved. No website, network, or storage system can be made fully secure, however. We cannot promise that unauthorized access, loss, or misuse will never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
