Information You Send
Search Terms
When you type a name, location, or similar detail into a third-party search box, that query is sent to the provider that operates the tool. Fulton County Inmate Population does not keep its own separate log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email us or send a message, we use the details in that message to respond. We do not share contact messages outside our organization unless a valid legal requirement calls for disclosure.
Technical Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, the site may collect routine technical details when a page loads:
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- Referring website, when one is passed to us.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand site usage and improve performance. Browser settings can block or delete cookies, although some features or measurements may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site available and loading properly.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which Fulton County jail, court, GDC, BOP, and ICE pages are useful to visitors.
- To diagnose broken pages, errors, and other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be more relevant to a visitor's interests.
Outside Websites
The site links to sheriff pages, Fulton County portals, Georgia Open Records Act guidance, GDC resources, federal locators, and third-party search tools. After you click away, the privacy policy and data practices of that outside site control.
Advertising partners may also use their own systems to measure activity across websites and deliver targeted ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by the Fulton County government or any records office.

- Search partners that process submitted queries.
- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks.
- Law-enforcement agencies, courts, or government bodies when required by a valid legal order.
Security
We use standard safeguards for a public website, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed breach-proof. Visitors should avoid sending sensitive information unless it is necessary for the specific communication.
