Privacy & Terms

Effective Date: March 1, 2026

Your Data, Your Story

Iranti is built on trust. You're sharing your family's most personal storiesโ€”grandma's secrets, old photos, names dates places. We take that seriously.

๐Ÿ“Œ What We Collect

  • Account info: name, email, password (encrypted, obviously)
  • Family data: names, dates, places, relationships you add
  • Photos: images you upload of family members
  • Matches: potential relative connections our algorithm finds

๐Ÿ” What We DON'T Do

  • โŒ Sell your data to anyone. Ever.
  • โŒ Share your tree with strangers (unless YOU choose to search)
  • โŒ Use your photos for anything without permission
  • โŒ Email you spam (just match notifications if you want them)
๐Ÿ‘€ About Those Matches: When you search or use our matching feature, you're choosing to compare your ancestors with others. We only show potential matchesโ€”you decide if you want to connect.

๐ŸŒ Who Can See What

  • Your tree: Only you, unless you share login (don't do that lol)
  • Search results: Other users can see names/dates if you're in the database, but not your whole tree
  • Matches: Only shown to you and the person you might match with

๐Ÿ“ธ Photos

You own your photos. We just store them so your family can see grandma's wedding day. If you delete them, they're gone (from our servers anyway).

๐Ÿช Cookies

Just session cookies so you stay logged in. No tracking, no ads, no bullshit.

โœ‰๏ธ Email

We only email you about potential matches (if you enable it) or important account stuff. No newsletters. No "we miss you" emails.

๐Ÿ“ž Contact

Questions? Concerns? Grandma's secrets accidentally uploaded? Email us at privacy@iranti.org and we'll fix it.

We might update this policy if laws change or we add features. We'll tell you.

Terms of Service - Read or Don't, We're Not Your Mama

๐Ÿ“ The Basics

By using Iranti, you agree to not be a jerk. That's basically it.

โœ… You Can:

  • Add your real family members (even the messy ones)
  • Upload photos you own or have permission to share
  • Search for relatives in other people's trees
  • Export your tree (take your data with you if you leave)
  • Delete your account and all your data anytime

โŒ You Can't:

  • Add fake people for trolling (we'll know, grandma's ghost will haunt you)
  • Upload photos you stole from the internet
  • Harass other users about their family secrets
  • Try to hack us (we're broke, there's nothing here for you)
  • Blame us if you find out great-aunt Mildred had three husbands
๐Ÿ‘ต Grandma Clause: If your grandma had 12 kids with one husband, left him, remarried, and had moreโ€”that's REAL LIFE. We support complicated families. No judgment zone.

โš–๏ธ Legal Stuff Lawyers Make Us Say

  • We provide the platform, you provide the content. You're responsible for what you add.
  • We try to keep the site up, but if it breaks, we'll fix it. If aliens attack, all bets are off.
  • Your data is yours. If you leave, you can export it. After deletion, it's gone from our active servers (backups take 30 days to die).

๐Ÿ›‘ Account Termination

If you're a jerk (spam, harassment, fake data), we can ban you. No refunds (it's free anyway lol).

๐Ÿ“ฑ Disclaimer

Iranti is for preserving family memory. We're not responsible if you discover your family tree is actually a circle. Some secrets were meant to stay buried.

โšก Service Availability

We're running this on dreams and coffee. If the site goes down, we're probably sleeping or fixing a bug. Give us a minute.

By using Iranti, you acknowledge that families are complicated and that's exactly why this exists.
