Information You Provide
Search Terms
When you type a name, county, state, or similar term into a search tool, that query is sent to the third-party provider that powers the tool. Craig County Inmate Population does not store those search terms in its own database.
Messages
If you send an email or other message, we use the information you provide to read the request and respond. We do not share contact messages outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement makes disclosure necessary.
Automatic Data

- IP address.
- Browser name and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages visited and time spent on pages.
- Referring site, when a browser sends one.
- Date and time stamps.
Cookies
Cookies and similar tools may be used to measure traffic, remember technical preferences, support advertising, and understand site use. You can block cookies in your browser settings. Some features may work differently when cookies are blocked.
How Data Is Used
- To keep pages available, fast, and usable.

Outside Websites
This site links to sheriff pages, jail rosters, Virginia court and corrections portals, federal locators, and third-party search services. Once you leave this site, the privacy rules of the other website or provider apply.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to recognize activity across different websites and show interest-based ads. That tracking is handled by those partners, not by an official Craig County or Virginia government office.

We do not sell personal data. Information may still be processed or received by limited outside parties that help operate this site or respond to legal obligations.
- Search partners that handle submitted search queries.
- Analytics providers that measure traffic and performance.
- Advertising networks that deliver or measure ads.
- Law-enforcement agencies or government bodies when required by a valid subpoena, court order, warrant, or similar legal process.
Security
Reasonable security practices are used to protect information connected with this site. No internet-connected service can be made completely secure, so we cannot guarantee that data will never be accessed, lost, changed, or misused.
