Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search Tools
A name, place, or other term entered into a search box is sent to the independent provider that operates that tool. Lackawanna County Released Inmates does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems. The provider’s privacy terms govern its handling of the query.
Messages Sent to Us
If a visitor sends an email or uses a contact form, we retain the message and supplied contact details as needed to answer. We do not disclose that correspondence outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
