Information You Choose to Send
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, location, or other detail entered into a search feature is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Cumberland County Released Inmates does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider's handling of a query is governed by its privacy practices.
Emails and Other Messages
If you email or submit a contact message, we retain the content and contact details needed to understand and answer it. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
Technical Details Collected Automatically
Routine technical information may be recorded when a page loads. It helps measure traffic, maintain reliable service, and diagnose errors without requiring a visitor to submit a message.
- The internet protocol address used for the visit
- The browser name and browser version
- The device category and operating system
- The pages viewed and time spent on them
- The referring website, when one is available
- The date and time of each request
Cookie Use
Cookies help show how visitors move through the site and which content is useful. You may block or remove cookies through browser controls. If cookies are disabled, some site features may work differently or may not retain their usual settings.
Reasons We Use Information
Collected information is used only for operating, measuring, and supporting the site and its connected services.
- Keep pages available and improve loading performance
- Send search requests to the appropriate partner service

Privacy Beyond This Website
Links may lead to Cumberland County sheriff and jail resources, Illinois corrections systems, parole or probation information, federal or immigration custody tools, release-record portals, and third-party search services. Once you follow an outside link, that destination's privacy policy controls its collection and use of information.
Some advertising providers may use their own technology to recognize activity across multiple websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through the provider's systems, not through systems operated by Cumberland County Released Inmates.
Parties That May Receive Data
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may still be provided to services that perform a site function or to an authority acting under valid legal process.
- Search partners that process a submitted query
- Analytics providers that measure site use
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads
- Law enforcement or government bodies responding to a valid legal order
Safeguarding Collected Information
Reasonable, standard practices are used to protect information from unauthorized access or misuse. No website, network, transmission method, or connected storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. We therefore cannot promise that a security incident will never occur.
