Information You Provide
Search Terms
When a visitor types a name, location, or other search detail into a search tool on this site, that query is sent to the third-party provider that operates the tool. Orange County Inmate Population does not run the partner database and does not keep its own log of those search terms. The partner service may apply its own privacy policy, pricing terms, and data-retention rules.
Messages Sent to Us
If you send an email or contact message, we use the details in that message to read it, respond, and keep a limited record of the exchange. We do not share contact messages outside the organization unless a valid legal duty requires it, such as a subpoena, court order, or other lawful process.

Cookies and similar tools may be used to understand site usage, support analytics, and help advertising systems work. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Some features, including analytics, ad delivery, or partner search behavior, may work differently when cookies are disabled.

Outside Websites
This site links to resources such as Central Virginia Regional Jail, the Orange County Sheriff's Office, the Virginia Department of Corrections, Virginia court systems, VINELink, BOP, ICE, government portals, and third-party search tools. Once you follow an outside link, that website's own privacy policy controls how it collects, uses, and shares information.
Advertising partners may also use their own systems to measure ads or tailor ads across websites. That tracking occurs on their platforms, not in an official Orange County, Central Virginia Regional Jail, or VADOC system.
