Information You Provide
Search Requests
A name, location, or similar query entered into a search feature is sent to the independent provider that operates that feature. Santa Fe County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages You Send
If you email us or submit a message, we retain the information needed to respond. We do not share the message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

How Information Is Used
Information is used for practical service operations, not to create or maintain official arrest, jail, or court records.
- Operate and improve page performance.
- Pass a search request to the relevant partner service.

- Detect, diagnose, and address technical problems.

External Websites
Links may lead to county rosters, booking reports, sheriff and corrections pages, court portals, state resources, or independent search tools. Once you leave this service, the receiving website's privacy notice applies to its information practices.
Some advertising partners may measure activity across websites on their own systems to deliver interest-based advertising. New Mexico's Inspection of Public Records Act guidance concerns public-agency records and does not govern the private data practices described here.

- Search partners that process a submitted query.
- Analytics providers used to measure site operation.
- Advertising networks supporting the service.

Data Safeguards
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information, but no internet-connected system can be guaranteed completely secure. We cannot promise that a transmission or stored item will never be exposed.
