Information You Submit
Search Queries
When a name, location, or other search term is entered into a sponsored search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Scurry County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own records.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and maintain ordinary business records. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement applies.
