Information You Submit
Terms Entered in Search
A name, place, or other term entered in a search box is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Allegan County Released Inmates does not keep or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact-form message, we keep the information needed to read and answer it. We do not share that message outside the organization unless the law requires disclosure.

Outside Sites and Services
Links lead to sheriff and corrections pages, public-record portals, release resources, and third-party search tools. Once you leave this site, the destination's privacy policy governs its collection and use of information.
Some advertising providers may use their own systems to observe activity across websites and select interest-based ads. That tracking occurs under the provider's controls, not ours.
Limited Data Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Data may be available to these parties when needed for their stated function:
- Search providers that process a submitted query
- Analytics services that measure site activity
- Advertising networks that deliver ads
- Law-enforcement or government authorities acting under a valid legal order
Reasonable Security Measures
Standard safeguards are used to protect information within our control. No internet-connected service is completely secure, however, so we cannot promise that a breach or unauthorized access will never occur.
Adults Only
The site is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. Contact us if a minor submitted information so it can be reviewed and deleted.
