Information You Provide
Search Terms
When a name, location, or other search term is entered into a partner search box, that request is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Florence County Inmate Population does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal obligation requires disclosure.
