Information Visitors Provide
Search Terms
When a visitor types a name, county, or other search detail into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Champaign County Inmate Population does not store or maintain those search terms on its own servers.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or other message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and keep a basic correspondence record. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
