At RootSource Research, your trust is my top priority. This policy outlines how I handle your personal information and research data.

Information Collection

When you contact me, I collect only the information necessary to conduct genealogical research on your behalf. This may include names, dates, places, family stories, and any records you provide.

Use of Information

Your information will be used solely for genealogical research. I will never sell, rent, or share your personal details, documentation, or research findings with any third parties.

Data Storage & Security

All information obtained through contact and research is stored securely:

  • On a secured laptop with updated security protections.

  • In a password-protected Google Drive account for backup and safe access.

Confidentiality

Reports, documents, and findings created for your project remain private. Only you (the client) will receive them, unless you explicitly request otherwise.

Your Rights

You may request deletion of your records from my files at any time. I will promptly remove all personal information and research results upon request.
