Privacy Notice

This notice explains what Greenville County Inmate Population may collect, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Provide

Search Queries

When you type a name, location, or other search term into a third-party search tool, that query is sent to the provider that operates the tool. Greenville County Inmate Population does not store those search terms on its own systems.

Messages

If you send an email or contact message, the message and any contact details you include may be kept long enough to review and respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless a legal obligation requires it.


Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, this site may collect technical information when pages load.

  • IP address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device type and operating system.
  • Pages visited and approximate time spent on pages.
  • Referring site, when available.
  • Date and time stamps.

Cookies

Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site usage, support analytics, and help advertising systems work. You can block cookies in your browser settings, but some features may behave differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • Keep the site available, readable, and fast.
  • Route search requests to the appropriate partner service.
  • Understand which Greenville County custody and records pages are useful.
  • Detect, diagnose, and fix technical problems.
  • Display advertising that may be relevant to visitor interests.

Outside Links and Public Records Context

The site links to the Greenville County inmate search, GCSO pages, the GCSO GovQA Public Records Center, the Greenville County Public Index, SCDC, BOP, ICE, VINELink, and third-party search tools. After you leave this site, the privacy notice and terms of the destination site control.

South Carolina FOIA, Title 30 Chapter 4, governs public-record access through government agencies. It does not create a privacy request process for this private site.

Advertising partners may use their own technologies to measure activity across websites for interest-based ads. That tracking occurs on their systems, not as a local jail or court record maintained here.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold as a standalone list. It may be handled by the parties below when needed for site operation, legal compliance, or partner services.

  • Search partners that process submitted search queries.
  • Analytics providers used to measure traffic and performance.
  • Advertising networks used to display or measure ads.
  • Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid legal order.

Security

Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled by the site. No internet-connected website, email account, analytics service, or partner tool can be guaranteed breach-proof.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, contact us so the submission can be reviewed for deletion.


Your Choices and Rights

  • Ask for a copy of personal information held by this site.
  • Request correction of inaccurate information you provided.
  • Request deletion where retention is not legally required.
  • Opt out of certain processing where the law provides that choice.
