Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, place, or other term entered in a search tool is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Muscogee County Released Inmates does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or submit a contact message, we keep the information needed to read and answer it. We do not disclose that correspondence outside our organization unless the law requires disclosure.
Technical Details Collected
Routine server and analytics records may capture technical information when a page loads. That information can include:
- Your internet protocol address
- Your browser type and software version
- Your device category and operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when one is supplied
- The date and time of each request
Cookie Settings
Cookies help measure how visitors move through the site. You can refuse or remove cookies through browser controls, though blocking them may cause some functions to behave differently.
Reasons We Use Data
Collected information is used only for site operations and related services. In particular, it may be used to:
- Keep pages available and responsive
- Send a search request to the appropriate partner
- Understand which resources visitors use
- Diagnose faults and repair technical problems
- Present advertising that may reflect visitor interests
Privacy Beyond This Site
Links may lead to the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office, the Columbus court portal, Georgia Department of Corrections resources, parole or supervision systems, federal or ICE locators, and outside search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination’s privacy terms control its collection and use of information.
Advertising companies may use their own systems to observe activity across different websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through the advertiser’s technology, not through records maintained by this site.
When Data May Be Shared
We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be available to:
- Search partners that process submitted queries
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order
Our Security Approach
Reasonable, commonly used safeguards are applied to information under our control. No website, network, or internet transmission can be promised to be fully secure, so we cannot guarantee that a breach will never occur.
Visitors Under Eighteen
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. A parent or guardian who believes a minor submitted information may use the Contact Us page to request its deletion.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on the law that applies, you may ask us to:
- Provide a copy of personal information we hold about you
- Correct personal information that is inaccurate
- Delete personal information in our possession
- Stop certain forms of processing
A request may be sent through the Contact Us page. These choices concern information held by this private site. Requests for Muscogee County or Georgia public records are governed separately by the Georgia Open Records Act, O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70 et seq., and should go to the agency that holds the record.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this privacy notice as services or practices change. A revised version becomes available on this page and will show a new effective date when it is posted.
