We have been informed that information on living family members contained within is starting to appear on other webpages, particularly those without password protection. It is disappointing when someone granted the password puts this personal information out for all to see, but more irritating when the website owner obtains the password from other sources. What we are forced to
do
is try and contain this situation before it gets much worse:
- The GEDCOM
file
will no longer be available for download. - The password
has
been changed, and you must re-request it. - To get the
password, you must agree to the following: In addition, if you do not think these methods will be sufficient in maintaining your privacy, and would like information about yourself excised from our database, we will remove it. If these methods
prove
unsuccessful in stopping this abuse, then we will have to restrict our
site
to only deceased individuals, a major exercise for us, and a great loss
for
researchers. |
