Information You Submit
Search Queries
Names, locations, or other details typed into a search box may be sent to the third-party provider that powers that tool. Sacramento County Released Inmates does not operate those partner databases and does not store those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If a visitor sends 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 valid legal requirement calls for disclosure.
