Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name or location entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Randolph County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact-form message, we retain it as needed to respond. We do not share the message outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Ordinary server, analytics, or advertising technology may record technical details when a page loads, including:
- Your Internet Protocol address;
- browser name and version;
- device category and operating system;
- pages viewed and time spent on them;
- the referring website, when available; and
- the date and time of the request.
Cookie Use
Cookies help show how visitors use the site. You can block or remove them through browser settings, although some site or partner features may then work differently.
How Data Supports the Site
Collected information is used only for the operational, routing, measurement, repair, and advertising purposes described here.
- Operating the website and maintaining reasonable performance;
- sending a search request to the selected partner service;
- understanding which pages visitors find useful;
- diagnosing and repairing technical problems; and
- displaying advertising that may reflect visitor interests.
Government and Outside Links
Pages link to Randolph County release records, Sheriff and NC DAC pages, court portals, federal locators, and third-party search services. After you follow a link, that destination's privacy policy applies.
Advertising providers may use their own systems to observe activity across websites and select interest-based advertisements. That cross-site activity takes place under the provider's controls, not as a Randolph County Released Inmates record.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal data. Information may nevertheless be processed by:
- search partners that handle a submitted query;
- analytics providers that measure site use;
- advertising networks that deliver advertisements; and
- law-enforcement or government authorities responding to a valid legal order.
Reasonable Security Measures
We use standard safeguards appropriate to a public website. No internet-connected service can promise complete security, so we cannot guarantee that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.
Visitors Younger Than 18
This site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, contact us through the Contact Us page to request deletion.

Depending on applicable law and any available exception, a visitor may make the following requests about personal information.
- Ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you;
- request correction of inaccurate personal information;
- ask us to erase information where applicable; and
- opt out of certain processing where the law provides that right.
Requests can be made through the Contact Us page. Rights and available exceptions depend on applicable law.
Changes to This Notice
We may revise this privacy notice as practices or legal requirements change. An updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
