Information You Provide
Search Queries
Names, locations, or other details typed into a search tool may be sent to the third-party provider that operates that search feature. Baltimore City Inmate Population does not maintain its own official jail roster, court database, or custody file, and it does not store those search terms as an official record.
Messages
If a visitor sends an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review and respond. It is not shared outside the operating organization unless disclosure is required by law or needed to protect the site.

- Pages viewed, time spent, referring page, and timestamps.
- Basic error, performance, and security event data.

Cookies and similar tools may help measure traffic, remember settings, support advertising, and understand which Baltimore City inmate record pages are useful. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features may work differently after cookies are limited.

Outside Websites
The site links to DPSCS, Maryland courts, Baltimore City agencies, federal locators, ICE resources, VINE, and third-party search tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination site's own privacy policy and terms control how information is collected and used.
Advertising and analytics partners may also use their own systems to measure activity across websites. Their tracking occurs under their policies, not as an official Baltimore City or Maryland government record.

- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government agencies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.

Reasonable safeguards are used to protect information handled through the site. No internet-connected system can be guaranteed breach-proof, and no transmission method is completely secure.
