Information You Enter
Search Terms
When a name, location, or similar query is entered into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Kent County Inmate Population does not keep its own separate 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 legal requirement makes disclosure necessary.
