Information You Choose to Provide
Search Terms
When you enter a name, location, or other details into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. Grundy County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own site records.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, we use the information in that message to read it and respond. We do not share contact messages outside the organization unless the law requires it.
