It is our desire to have as complete a genealogical website as possible, but with
the world being the way it is, a measure of caution is also appropriate. It is a bit
of a challenge to balance the right to privacy with a genealogical database that has
some usefulness. With that in mind, here is our approach:
- No birth data (place or date) are listed for living persons born less than 100
years ago.
- We never post any of the following:
Address Telephone
Number Social Security Number
- Any Gedcom files we receive are treated as confidential and never forwarded to
any other person. Any information we post from a Gedcom file complies with items 1
& 2 above.
- As it is possible to find a person's mother's maiden name, it
would be the course of wisdom to use some other word for a credit
card or bank account password. Mother's maiden names can be obtained from
public records, so posting them on this site would not constitute any added
invasion of privacy.
- Source information, including e-mail addresses, is listed by permission.
- We do not use cookies nor do we collect any information from visitors
to the site.
- We are happy to remove any person's name and/or data from the site if
that person asks us to do so.
- If we receive inquiries at times about contacting living persons, we will
forward those requests on to the person in question or to a close contact person,
but will not give out the e-mail address to the person inquiring.
- The Discussion Board on this site is open to all, therefore we do not control
what others may post.
- This site is family friendly and does not contain any "adult"
material. Also, we do not use any pop-ups, pop-unders, cookies, banners, adware,
spyware, or similar.
