Information You Submit
Search terms
A name or location entered in a search box is sent to the outside provider that operates the tool. Yellow Medicine County Released Inmates does not keep or log those search terms on its own system. The provider's policy controls its handling after submission.
Messages
An email or contact message is retained as needed to respond and manage the exchange. It is not shared beyond the organization unless disclosure is required by law.
