Research focuses on deceased ancestors. Include a living person's information only when necessary for the scoped question and with appropriate authority and consent. Minimize birth dates, addresses, contact details and other identifiers; use initials in genetic match summaries. No public trees, public living-person profiles, unsolicited relative contact, people-location service, surveillance or eligibility/background screening are provided.
We do not disclose a private family report to relatives merely because they are named in it. You control your private access link and must obtain permission before sharing living-person details. Sensitive parentage or adoption findings are treated as private and uncertain where evidence is incomplete. Do not submit another person's genetic information without their explicit permission.
