Information Submitted Directly
Search terms
A name or location entered into a search tool is transmitted to the third-party provider that operates that tool. Randolph County Recent Arrests does not retain or log those search terms on its own systems.
Messages
An email or contact-form message may be kept for as long as needed to answer it. It is not shared outside the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
