Information You Enter
Search Terms
When you type a name, location, or similar lookup term into a search tool on this site, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Schuylkill County Inmate Population does not keep its own database of those search terms.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, we use the information you provide to read, route, and answer that message. We do not share contact messages outside the site operation unless a legal obligation requires it.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may receive technical information when a page loads or a visitor moves through the site.

Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand traffic, keep basic site functions working, and measure how visitors use the pages. You can block cookies in your browser settings, although some features or partner tools may respond 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 partner service selected by the visitor.
- To understand which Schuylkill County inmate, jail, court, and facility pages are useful.
- To identify broken pages, errors, security issues, or other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general interests or browsing activity.
Outside Links and Portals
This site links to public resources such as Schuylkill County offices, UJS Case Search, VINELink Pennsylvania, PA DOC, BOP, ICE ODLS, and third-party search tools. Once you leave this site, the privacy notice and data practices of the destination site control your use there.
Advertising partners may use their own cookies or identifiers to measure ads and show interest-based advertising across websites. Those activities happen on the partner's systems, not in a Schuylkill County government system.
Who May Receive Information
We do not sell personal data as a public-record product. Information may be handled by the following categories of recipients when needed to run the site or comply with law.
- Search partners that process lookup requests submitted through their tools.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and page performance.
- Advertising networks that place or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, regulators, or government bodies when a valid subpoena, court order, or similar legal command requires disclosure.
Security
We use reasonable security practices for a small public reference site, but no internet-connected service can be promised as breach-proof. Do not use this site to send sensitive information that should go directly to a court, jail, attorney, or government records officer.
