Information a Visitor Sends
Search Terms
Names, locations, or other details entered into a sponsored search box may be 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 a visitor sends an email or contact message, the information in that message may be kept long enough to review it and respond. It is not shared outside the site operator except when disclosure is required by law.
Technical Data Collected During Visits

- IP address.

Cookies
Cookies may be used to understand site use, support analytics, and improve page performance. A browser can be set to block cookies, although some features or measurements may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, usable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the partner service selected by the visitor.
- To understand which Cherokee County jail, court, and locator pages are being used.
- To find broken pages, errors, abuse patterns, or other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be more relevant to the visitor.
Outside Websites and Services
The site links to the Cherokee Sheriff's Office, the Cherokee County Adult Detention Center, the Cherokee Clerk of Courts, Georgia corrections resources, federal locators, ICE, VINELink, and third-party search or advertising tools. Once a visitor leaves this site, the destination site's own privacy notice and terms control.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and serve interest-based ads. That tracking occurs through the partner's technology, not through a local jail or court record held by this site.

- Advertising networks that place or measure ads.
- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.
Security
