Terms Entered in Search
A name, county, or other term entered in a search tool is sent to the outside provider that operates that tool. We do not separately store or log those terms on this site.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact message, we keep the information needed to answer it. We do not share the message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.

Links and Outside Services
Links may lead to Ingham County jail resources, police arrest reports, court or corrections pages, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination’s privacy terms control.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to track activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That cross-site activity occurs on their platforms, not ours.

We use standard safeguards intended to protect information. No internet-connected service is completely secure, however, and we cannot promise that a breach will never occur.
