Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when visitors use Anderson County Inmate Population, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Enter

Search Terms

When a visitor types a name, county, state, or other search detail into a partner search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Anderson County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own records.

Messages

If you send an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it, reply, and manage the request. It is not shared outside the organization except when a valid legal requirement applies.


Technical Information Collected Automatically

Basic technical data may be collected when a page loads so the site can operate, measure traffic, and diagnose problems.

  • Internet Protocol address.
  • Browser type and version.
  • Device category and operating system.
  • Pages viewed and approximate time spent on pages.
  • Referring website, when one is passed by the browser.
  • Date and time stamps.

Cookies

Cookies may be used to understand how visitors move through the site and how features perform. Browser settings can block or remove cookies, although some features or measurements may work differently when cookies are disabled.


How Information Is Used

  • Keep pages available, usable, and reasonably fast.
  • Send search requests to the correct third-party search partner.
  • Understand which Anderson County inmate-record pages are useful to visitors.
  • Find errors, broken links, and technical problems.
  • Support advertising that may be based on visitor interests.

Links Away From This Site

The site links to ACSO roster resources, City of Anderson detention information, SCDC, BOP, ICE, VINELink, court portals, South Carolina public-record sources, and third-party search tools. After you click an outside link, that site's own privacy notice controls its collection and use of information.

Advertising partners may use their systems to measure activity across websites and deliver interest-based advertising. That tracking is handled by the advertising partner, not by the Anderson County public-record offices described on this site.


Who May Receive Information

Personal information is not sold. It may be provided to limited parties when needed to run the site or when the law requires it.

  • Search partners that process submitted search queries.
  • Analytics providers used to measure traffic and page performance.
  • Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
  • Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when a valid subpoena, court order, or other legal obligation requires disclosure.

Security

Reasonable security practices are used for the systems under this site's control. No website, email account, analytics service, or internet-connected system can be promised as fully secure or breach-proof.


Visitors Under 18

This site is intended for adults. It does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor submitted information, a parent or guardian may request deletion.


Your Choices and Requests

  • Ask for a copy of personal information held by the site.
  • Request correction of information that is inaccurate.
  • Request deletion when retention is not legally required.
  • Opt out of certain processing where the law provides that right.

South Carolina public records may be governed by separate agency rules, including S.C. Code Ann. Section 30-4-30 and the commercial-solicitation limits in Section 30-2-50. Requests to change an official jail, court, or corrections record must go to the agency that maintains that record.


Policy Changes

This privacy notice may be revised from time to time. Updated terms will be posted on this page with a new effective date when changes are made.
