Information You Provide
Search Queries
Names, locations, or other terms entered into a sponsored search box are sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Denton County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own public record database.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the submitted contact details and message text may be kept long enough to read, route, and answer the message. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for it.
Automatic Technical Data
Like most websites, this site may collect routine technical details when a page loads or a tool is used.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and time spent on those pages.
- Referring website, when one is supplied.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies

Outside Links
The site links to sheriff pages, jail rosters, court portals, state corrections pages, federal locators, immigration resources, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the privacy policy and terms of the destination site control that visit.
Advertising partners may use their own cookies or identifiers to understand activity across different websites. Those systems are operated by the partner, not by Denton County Inmate Population.
