Search Terms
When you type a name, county, or location into a search feature, that query may be sent to the outside provider that powers the tool. Saline County Inmate Population does not keep its own database of those search terms.
Messages
If you email us or send a contact message, we use the information you provide to read and answer the message. We do not share those communications outside the organization unless a valid legal requirement applies.

Outside Websites and Public Records
This site links to sheriff pages, jail and corrections resources, Judici, Illinois FOIA information, federal locators, and other third-party tools. Once you leave this site, the privacy policy and data practices of the destination website apply.
Illinois public-record access, including requests under 5 ILCS 140 and arrest-report provisions in 5 ILCS 140/2.15, is handled by the public body that maintains the record. This privacy notice does not control how Saline County, Illinois courts, IDOC, IDJJ, BOP, ICE, or any other agency handles its records.
Advertising partners may use their own systems to measure activity across websites and deliver interest-based ads. Those tracking and opt-out choices are controlled by the advertising partner, not by this site.

- Advertising networks that support site operations.
- Law enforcement, courts, regulators, or government bodies when required by a valid subpoena, court order, or other lawful demand.
Security Practices
We use reasonable security measures for a small public website, but no internet-connected service can be guaranteed completely secure. We cannot promise that unauthorized access, errors, outages, or data loss will never occur.
