Data You Provide
Search Queries
When a name, location, or other search term is entered into a search tool, the query is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Hudson County Inmate Population does not keep a separate local log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement makes disclosure necessary.
