Information You Choose to Submit
Search Entries
When a visitor types a name, location, or similar detail into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Newton County Inmate Population does not keep its own searchable log of those names or search terms.
Messages
If you email or send a message about the site, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
