Information You Provide
Search Queries
If you enter a name, location, or other detail into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Bent County Released Inmates does not store those search terms in its own records.
Messages
If you email the site or send a contact message, the message and reply details may be kept long enough to respond and manage the request. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless required by law.
