Information You Submit
Queries Sent to Search Providers
A name or place entered in a search tool is transmitted to the outside provider operating that tool. Vermillion County Busted Mugshots does not keep or log those query terms on its own systems.
Messages Sent to Us
If you email us or use a contact form, we retain the message and contact details needed to answer. We do not share that correspondence outside our organization unless the law requires it.

Websites Beyond Our Control
Links may lead to the Vermillion County Sheriff's Office, Indiana VINE, Indiana MyCase, the Indiana Department of Correction, federal locators, or outside search services. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy terms govern.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across different websites and tailor ads. That tracking occurs under those partners' practices, not this site's direct control.
Limited Data Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Data may be disclosed only to service providers that perform a stated function or where disclosure is legally compelled.
- Search partners that process submitted queries
- Analytics vendors that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard safeguards suited to an informational website. No networked service can promise absolute security, so we cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Adults Only
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so we can review and delete it.
Your Privacy Choices
Subject to applicable law, you may make the following requests about personal data we hold.
- Ask for a copy
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Ask that data be erased
- Opt out of certain processing
These choices concern data held by this private site. Indiana Access to Public Records Act records held by a government office are controlled by that office and its legal duties.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this notice as practices or legal requirements change. A revised version becomes effective when posted here with its new effective date.
