Information You Enter
Search Queries
When you type a name, location, or other search term into a search box supplied by a third-party provider, that query is sent to the provider operating the tool. Franklin County Inmate Population does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages and Contact Requests
If you email or otherwise send a message about the site, the details you provide may be kept long enough to review and respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless a legal requirement calls for it.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, the site may receive routine technical information when a page loads.
- Your IP address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps connected with visits.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site use, keep pages working, and support advertising or analytics. You can block cookies in your browser settings, although some features may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the Franklin County guide available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the proper partner service.
- To understand which pages help visitors find jail, court, DOCCS, VINE, BOP, or ICE resources.
- To detect and repair technical problems.
- To support advertising that may be based on general interests or browsing activity.
Outside Websites and Tools
The site links to Franklin County offices, New York court resources, DOCCS, VINE, BOP, ICE, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy and data practices of the destination site control what happens there.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure visits or show interest-based ads across websites. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Franklin County Inmate Population as an official records office.

- Analytics providers used to measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that support ads on or around the site.
- Law enforcement, courts, regulators, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information handled through the site. No internet-connected website, email account, analytics platform, or partner tool can be promised as completely secure or breach-proof.
