Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
When you type a name, location, or other term into a search box supplied by a third party, the query passes to that provider so it can return results. Stafford County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's privacy terms apply to the information it receives.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or submit a contact message, we retain the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share the message outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
