Privacy Notice

This notice explains what information may be collected when someone uses Yakima County Inmate Population, how that information is used, and when it may be shared. By using the site, you accept the practices described here.

Information You Choose to Provide

Search Entries

If you type a name, location, or other search detail into a partner-powered search tool, that query is sent to the outside provider operating that tool. Yakima County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own records.

Messages

If you send an email or other message, the submitted information may be kept long enough to review and respond. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law or a valid legal order.
