Data Ownership

Your Data Belongs to You

At MyFamilyHistory, we believe that your family's data is your property. This policy outlines our commitment to ensuring you maintain complete ownership and control over your information.

What This Means

• Full Ownership: You retain all rights to the content you upload, create, or share on our platform.
• Export Anytime: You can download all your data in open, standard formats at any time.
• Delete Permanently: When you delete content, it's removed from our servers permanently.
• No Data Mining: We never analyze, sell, or share your personal data with third parties.
• Transparent Storage: Your data is stored in secure EU data centers with full GDPR compliance.

Data Portability

We support full data portability through:

• JSON exports for structured data
• Original file downloads for all media
• PDF exports for stories and documents
• Complete backup archives in standard formats

Privacy by Design

Each family portal is completely isolated. Your data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and only accessible to family members you explicitly invite.

Your Rights

• Access: View all data we have about you
• Rectification: Correct any inaccurate data
• Erasure: Request complete deletion of your account and data
• Portability: Transfer your data to another service
• Object: Opt out of any processing you disagree with
