Information You Provide
Search Queries
When a name, place, or other search term is entered into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. McClain County Inmate Population does not store those search terms on its own server.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the message and reply information may be kept long enough to respond and manage the request. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Automatic Technical Data

- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on pages.
- Referring site, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.

Outside Websites
This site links to sheriff pages, court portals, corrections agencies, federal locators, vendor pages, and third-party search tools. After a visitor clicks one of those links, the destination site's privacy policy and data practices apply.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure or personalize ads across websites. That tracking is controlled by the advertising partner, not by McClain County Inmate Population.

- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used, but no internet-connected site can be promised as breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for the request.
