Information You Provide
Search Entries
If you enter a name, location, or other search detail into a third-party search tool, that information is sent to the provider that operates the tool. Dolores County Released Inmates does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
If you email us or send a contact message, we keep the information needed to read the message and reply. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless required by law.
