Privacy notice
Last updated 19 October 2026 (Australia/Sydney). This is a short notice for Amora Tree while it is one private family tree. It is not the full privacy policy. The full policy will be published before anyone else can sign in.
Who to contact
Privacy questions, and requests to hide or remove a person, go to hello@amoratree.com.
What Amora Tree stores
- Names, nicknames, gender, and whether someone is marked living or deceased
- Birth and death dates and places, including partial dates such as a year alone
- Family links: parents, partners, and children
- Notes and any extra details the owner adds
- Photos
- Phone, email, and address
- A history of edits, which can include the earlier values
- A sign-in cookie
Who can see it
Anyone with the shared password can see the whole tree, including phone, email, and address. This version has no separate accounts.
Phone, email, address, and any detail marked Personal are labelled so that later members of the tree, and other trees, will not receive them. That label is not a second password today.
AI
Amora Tree is not connected to an AI service. Personal details are never sent to an AI. No AI company receives the tree in this version.
Photos
A photo is stored in the family database with the person. This version does not remove location data that may be hidden inside a photo file.
Deleting someone
Deleting a person removes them from the tree. The history of edits can still show the earlier values. Write to hello@amoratree.com if a person should be hidden or removed from history and from backups as well.
Backups
Each night the server keeps an encrypted copy for 14 days. When off-site storage is set up, another encrypted copy is kept for 30 days and then deleted. A backup file already saved on a computer is not changed. There is no restore button in the app. Times are Australia/Sydney.
Where it is kept
The tree is stored in a database hosted by Railway. In this version the person who runs Amora Tree can read that database. Amora Tree does not sell the data. No advertising network, SMS provider, or email provider receives it.
Cookies
One cookie, named kinfolk_session, keeps you signed in for up to 30 days. It is not used to track you across other sites. Logging out ends the session.
Children
The tree may include children. This version has no accounts for children. An adult keeps those records.
