| Ybase is a part of DNA Heritage but will remain entirely free and exist as a standalone site available to genealogists whether submitting or searching the database.
Under UK law and with reference to the UK Data Protection Act 1998, your personal information will never be sold or disclosed to a third-party and will never be used as part of any marketing strategy or campaign unless specifically opted in to receive updates from Ybase/DNA Heritage.
Where multiple entries exist for a single email address, it is possible that some records will show that the individual has opted in and other records that that individual has opted out. The majority will take precedence. Where there is an even split, the default will be considered so that the individual has opted not to receive updates.
Individuals wishing to have a record deleted or be removed form the Ybase/DNA Heritage mailing list should do so in writing using the email address matching the record, preferably quoting the Record ID.
Hide/Disclose email and web address option
There is a facility to choose to hide or disclose your email and web addresses on the Full Record page for each record. If the option to hide is chosen, a small link appears to a ‘Contact Page’.
Other researchers may contact you through this form, giving their name, email address and a message.
The details are screened prior to an email being sent to the recipient, to prevent the sending of unsolicited commercial mail via the form.
