Information You Submit
Search Terms
When a name, location, or other lookup detail is entered into a sponsored search box, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Franklin County Inmate Population does not keep its own database 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, respond, and maintain ordinary business records. It is not shared outside the organization except when required by law.

Outside Links and Their Policies
Pages may link to Franklin County offices, Mississippi corrections resources, jail or court portals, VINELink, federal locator pages, and third-party search tools. After you leave this site, the privacy policy and terms of the destination site control what happens there.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across different websites and provide interest-based ads. That tracking is handled by the advertising provider, not by an official Franklin County office.
