Information You Provide
Search Queries
When a name, location, or other search term is entered into a partner search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Ottawa 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 so we can read it, respond, and handle follow-up. We do not share contact messages outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.
