Information You Provide
Search Terms
When you type a name, county, state, or similar detail into a search tool on this site, that query is sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. Roscommon County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own record system.
Messages You Send
If you email us or submit a contact message, we keep the information needed to read and answer the message. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, this site may collect technical data when a page loads or a link is used.
- The IP address used for the visit.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on them.
- The referring website, when one is available.
- Date and time stamps connected to visits and requests.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools help measure site use, remember basic preferences, and understand which Roscommon County pages visitors use most. You can block cookies through your browser settings, but some features or partner tools may work differently if cookies are disabled.
How the Information Is Used
- To keep the site available, stable, and reasonably fast.
- To send search requests to the correct outside search provider.
- To understand which jail, court, and locator pages are useful to visitors.
- To diagnose errors, broken links, and other technical problems.
- To display advertising that may be related to general visitor interests.
Outside Websites
This site links to resources such as the Roscommon County sheriff page, the JailTracker roster, Michigan FOIA materials under MCL 15.231 and MCL 15.243, MDOC OTIS, BOP, ICE, VINE, court pages, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy of the destination site controls how your information is handled.
Advertising partners may use their own cookies, pixels, or similar technology to understand activity across websites. That tracking happens on their systems, not as a record controlled by this site.

- Law enforcement, courts, or government bodies when a valid legal order requires disclosure.

We use ordinary security practices intended to reduce unauthorized access, misuse, and loss. No website, server, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be fully secure, so this notice does not promise breach-proof protection.
