Information You Choose to Provide
Search Terms
When a name, location, or other term is entered into a search tool, that query may be sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. Stanly County Inmate Population does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email us or send a contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and manage the request. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for disclosure.
