Information You Submit
Search terms
When you type a name, location, or similar query into a search tool on this site, the query is sent to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Cherokee County Inmate Population does not keep its own log of those search terms.
Messages
If you email us or send a message through a contact method, we use the information in that message to review and respond. We do not share contact messages outside the organization unless a legal requirement applies.
Technical Data Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may collect basic technical details when a page loads.
- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and approximate time spent on pages.
- Referring website, when available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools help measure site use and keep basic features working. You can block cookies through your browser settings, but some pages or partner features may behave differently when cookies are disabled.
How the Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, readable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which Cherokee County jail and record pages visitors use most.
- To detect technical problems and improve page performance.
- To display advertising that may be based on general interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to jail rosters, sheriff pages, court portals, South Carolina corrections resources, federal locators, and third-party search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination site's privacy policy and data practices control your activity there.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across websites for interest-based advertising. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by Cherokee County Inmate Population.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal information. Information may be available to the limited groups below when needed for site operation or legal compliance.
- Search partners that process queries submitted through their tools.
- Analytics providers that help measure traffic and site performance.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security Practices
We use reasonable security practices for a small public-reference site. No internet-connected service can be promised as fully secure, so we cannot guarantee that information will never be accessed without authorization.
Visitors Under 18
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If a minor has sent personal information, contact us so the material can be reviewed for deletion.
Your Data Choices

- Request correction of information you believe is inaccurate.
- Ask that personal information be deleted when retention is not required.
