Information You Submit
Search Terms
When you type a name, location, or similar lookup detail into a search tool on this site, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. DeWitt County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own records.
Messages
If you send an email or contact message, the message and reply information may be kept long enough to respond and maintain ordinary business records. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is legally required.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may receive technical details when a page loads, including:
- Your IP address.
- Browser type and browser version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and approximate time spent on those pages.
- The referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site traffic and page use. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but some features or measurements may work differently when cookies are disabled.
How Information Is Used
- To keep the site operating and loading properly.
- To send search requests to the correct partner service.
- To understand which DeWitt County jail, court, TDCJ, BOP, ICE, and VINELink resource pages are useful to visitors.
- To diagnose errors, broken links, and other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be based on general visitor interests.
Other Websites
This site links to jail rosters, sheriff and corrections pages, court portals, government locators, VINELink, and third-party search tools. After you leave this site, the destination site's privacy policy controls how your information is handled.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across different websites for interest-based ads. That tracking occurs on their systems, not in a DeWitt County Inmate Population inmate-record database.

- Analytics providers that measure site use.
- Advertising networks that serve or measure ads.
- Law enforcement or government bodies when a valid subpoena, court order, or other legal process requires disclosure.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used for this site, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed against every risk. We cannot promise that data transmission or storage will always be free from unauthorized access.
