Information You Send
Search Terms
When you enter a name, location, or related query into a search tool on this site, that query is passed to the third-party provider that powers the tool. Marion County Inmate Population does not store or keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email us or send a contact message, we use the information in that message to respond. We do not share contact messages outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement makes disclosure necessary.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical details when pages load.
- Your IP address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site usage, remember technical preferences, and support analytics or advertising. You can block cookies in your browser, but some features or partner tools may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, usable, and reasonably fast.
- To route search requests to the appropriate partner service.
- To understand which Marion County record pages visitors use most.
- To diagnose errors, broken links, or other technical issues.
- To support advertising that may be based on visitor interests.
Links Away From This Site
This site links to Marion County jail pages, sheriff and court offices, SCDC, VINELink, BOP, ICE, government portals, and third-party search tools. After you click an outside link, that site's privacy policy and data practices control what happens there.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and show targeted ads. That tracking happens through their platforms, not through a Marion County government system.

- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
We use reasonable, common security practices for a small reference website. No internet-connected service can be guaranteed breach-proof, and we cannot promise that every transmission or stored message will be fully secure.
