Search Terms
When a visitor enters a name, location, or other query into a search tool, that request is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Otero County Released Inmates does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email the site or send a contact message, the message and reply address are kept as needed to respond. Those messages are not shared outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.
