Information You Provide
Search Terms
When you enter a name, county, state, or other search detail into a search tool on this site, that query is sent to the third-party provider operating the tool. Franklin County Inmate Population does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or other message, the information you provide may be kept long enough to read it, respond, and maintain ordinary business records. It is not shared outside the organization except when required by law.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, technical data may be collected when a page loads. That data helps measure traffic, diagnose errors, and understand how visitors move through Franklin County custody and records pages.

- Your browser type and version.
- Your device type and operating system.
- The pages visited and approximate time spent on them.
- The referring website, if one sent you here.
- Date and time stamps for visits and requests.
