Information Sent Directly
Search terms
A name, location, or other value entered into a search widget is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Kalawao County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own servers through the page itself. The provider may apply its own privacy policy, retention rules, and security practices.
Messages and contact details
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the operator may keep the message and reply details long enough to answer it, protect the service, or meet a legal duty. Those messages are not shared outside the organization except when disclosure is required by law or needed for a service provider handling the message.
Technical Information
Normal page delivery can create routine technical records. Depending on the hosting, analytics, and security services in use, those records may include:
- IP address or a shortened version of it.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and time spent on a page.
- The referring page, when a browser supplies one.
- Request timestamps and basic error details.
Cookies and similar tools
Cookies or related technologies may help measure page use, remember a setting, support security, or show whether a feature works. Browser controls can block or delete cookies. A blocked cookie may cause a search tool or other feature to behave differently.
How Information Is Used
Information may be used to operate, protect, and improve the pages. Typical purposes include:
- Keep the pages available and responsive.
- Send a search request to the partner service that supplies the search box.
- Understand which pages help visitors and where navigation fails.
- Find technical faults, abuse, or security problems.
- Show advertising that may be related to general browsing interests.
The private operator does not use this reference to make decisions about a person described in an arrest, custody, or court record. Those records belong to their responsible agency and must be verified there.
Other Websites
Pages may link to DOH UIPA instructions, DCR SAVIN, Hawaii eCourt, custody locators, federal services, news outlets, and outside search tools. Once a visitor follows a link, the destination’s privacy policy and terms govern its handling of information. Kalawao County Busted Mugshots does not control a destination’s collection, retention, accuracy, or uptime.
Advertising partners may use their own cookies or similar tools to measure activity across different sites or serve interest-based ads. Those systems operate on the partner’s infrastructure, not as a promise that this domain stores the same activity.
Who May Receive Data
Personal information is not sold by the private operator as a standalone list. It may be accessible to the following parties when needed for the purposes above:
- Search partners that process values entered into their tools.
- Analytics, hosting, security, and technical service providers.
- Advertising networks or measurement partners.
- Law-enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order or other legal duty requires disclosure.
Service providers may handle information under their own contracts and notices. A visitor should review those terms before submitting a search or message.
Security Efforts
Reasonable operational and technical safeguards are used for the information within the operator’s control. No internet-connected system is completely secure, and no promise can be made that a breach, interruption, or unauthorized access will never occur. Information sent to a linked government or partner service is governed by that service’s protections.
Visitors Under 18
The pages are intended for adults. The operator does not knowingly collect personal information from a person under 18. If a minor sends personal information, a parent or guardian may use the Contacts route to request that it be reviewed and deleted where appropriate.
Available Data Choices
Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity checks, a visitor may ask about information held by the private operator and request:
- A copy of personal information maintained by the operator.
- Correction of an error in a message record.
- Deletion of information that no longer needs to be retained.
- Restriction or opt-out from certain optional processing.
These choices do not control records held by DOH, Maui Police, NPS, DCR, the courts, a news outlet, or a search provider. Those requests must go to the agency or provider that holds the data.
Notice Changes
This Privacy Notice may be revised when the service, technology, partners, or legal requirements change. A revised version becomes effective when posted here, with a new effective date where one is supplied. Continuing to use the pages after an update indicates acceptance of the revised notice.
