Information You Submit
Search Terms
When you type a name, place, or other search term into a third-party search tool, that request is sent to the provider that operates the tool. Nelson County Inmate Population does not keep its own local log of those search terms, but the provider may process them under its own privacy policy.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and maintain ordinary business records. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal order.
Technical Data Collected
Like most websites, this site may collect routine technical details when pages load. These details help identify errors, understand general traffic, and keep pages working across devices.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on pages.
- Referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies may be used to measure site use, support ads, and understand which pages are useful to visitors. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some features may load or behave differently when cookies are disabled.

Other Websites
This site links to jail rosters, sheriff pages, court resources, state and federal locators, VINE, and third-party search services. After you click an outside link, that website's own privacy policy and terms control its collection, storage, and use of data.
Advertising partners may use cookies or similar tools to measure ad performance or tailor ads across websites. That tracking happens on their systems, not as a jail, court, or custody record maintained by this site.
