Information You Provide
Search Terms
When a name, location, or other search term is entered into a partner-powered search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Marion County Inmate Population does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message is used to read it, route it, and respond when a response is appropriate. It is not shared outside the organization unless a legal duty requires disclosure.
Technical Data Collected
Like most websites, this site may collect routine technical data when pages load or links are used.
- IP address.
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on pages.
- Referring site or source, when available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use, keep features working, and support analytics or advertising. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, though some features may not work the same way after blocking them.
How Data Is Used
- To keep the site available, usable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the appropriate partner service.
- To understand which Marion County record pages are useful.
- To locate technical problems and reduce abuse.
- To display advertising that may be based on general interests or browsing activity.
Outbound Links
The site links to sheriff pages, jail rosters, court resources, Mississippi Department of Corrections tools, federal locators, VINELink, and third-party search providers. After you click away, the privacy policy and data practices of that outside site apply.
Advertising partners may also use their own systems to measure activity or serve interest-based ads across websites. Those actions occur on the partner's systems, not as official Marion County government activity.
Who May Receive Data
Personal data is not sold as a standalone mailing list or contact list. It may be handled by limited groups that help operate, protect, or legally maintain the site.
- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that place or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid legal order.
Security Practices
Reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards are used to protect information handled by the site. No internet-connected service can be promised as completely secure, so the site cannot guarantee that data will never be viewed, lost, misused, or accessed without authorization.
