Privacy Notice

This notice explains how Carteret County Busted Mugshots handles information connected with visits, search tools, and messages. It covers the private site and its links to the Carteret Sheriff, CCDC, city police, courts, and NCDAC. By using the pages, a visitor accepts the practices described here, subject to applicable law.

Information You Send

Carteret’s Sheriff page identifies John R. Nyberg as sheriff; the Sheriff’s Office remains the official source for county custody and booking records.

A name or location entered into a search widget is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. This site does not keep or log those search terms on its own system. Messages or email sent through a contact route may be retained so a reply can be made and are not shared outside the organization unless a lawful need requires it.


Technical Data and Cookies

Normal page requests may produce technical information such as:

  • IP address and general network details.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages visited and time spent on each.
  • Referring page, when provided.
  • Dates and timestamps.

Cookies or similar tools may help understand how visitors use the pages. Browser settings can block cookies, although some features may act differently afterward.


How Information Is Used

Collected information may be used to keep the site available, route search requests to the proper partner, learn which pages help visitors, diagnose technical issues, and show advertising that may match general interests. The site is a reference guide, not the custodian of Carteret jail or court records.


Links and Service Providers

Pages link to CCDC, the Carteret Sheriff’s Records Division, Morehead City Police, Beaufort Police, Newport Police, North Carolina courts, NCDAC, BOP, ICE, local news, and other tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination’s privacy policy applies. Advertising partners may measure activity across sites on their own systems.

The county public-records page, inmate-search page, and NCDAC search page are government destinations with separate practices.


Who May Receive Data

Personal data is not sold by this site. Information may be handled by search partners processing a query, analytics providers, advertising networks, or law-enforcement and government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.


Security and Children

Reasonable, standard security practices are used, but no internet-connected system is fully secure and no breach-proof promise is made. The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. A minor who sent information may contact the site to request deletion.


Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law, a visitor may ask for a copy of data held, correction of inaccurate data, deletion, or an opt-out from certain processing. A request should identify the information and a way to respond. Some data may need to be retained for legal, security, or recordkeeping reasons.


Changes to This Notice

This notice may change as the site, tools, or law changes. A revised version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Questions about this notice may be sent through Contact Us.
