Information You Choose to Provide
Search Terms
When a name, location, or other search detail is entered into a third-party search feature, that request is handled by the provider operating the tool. Dickinson County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own records.
Messages
If you send an email or other direct message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read, respond, and maintain a record of the exchange. It is not shared outside the organization except when disclosure is legally required.
