Information on living persons will be entered into family tree software in preparation for the complete issue of information in electronic format at the end of a project to the client alone.

At the end of the project, or when instructed to cease work, and once payment for all our services have been received in full, at your request we will either forward to you all the original documentation we have found or will destroy it.  Any original documentation provided by the client, will of course, be returned.

You have the right to request a copy of any personal information that Cornish Ancestry Ltd holds about you and to have any inaccuracies corrected.  Requests are to be in writing at the address stated in the contact us section of the website.

For PayPal payments a PayPal generated email will be sent to you at the email address you provided in the questionnaire.

Any emails sent from Cornish Ancestry Ltd will be directly related to your research.  At no time will we send you any bulk or spam emails.
