Morrill Online (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website
morrillonline.com (the “Site”), a genealogy
resource dedicated to the Morrill, Morrell, Morrel, and Morrall surnames in North
America. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and
the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information We Collect

Information you provide

• Account registration. If you create an account, we collect your
  name or username, email address, and a password (stored in encrypted form).
• Membership payment. Access to the individual family pages requires
  a one-time membership fee. Payments are processed by a third-party payment processor.
  We do not receive or store your full payment-card number; the
  processor handles card data and provides us only with confirmation of payment and
  limited billing details.
• Communications. If you contact us, submit a comment, or send us
  genealogy data, we collect the information you choose to provide.

Information collected automatically

• Log and usage data. Like most websites, our servers automatically
  record information such as your IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and the date
  and time of your visit.
• Cookies and similar technologies. We and our partners use cookies
  to keep you logged in, remember preferences, measure traffic, and serve advertising
  (see below).

Advertising

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on the Site.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior
  visits to this and other websites.
• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you
  based on your visit to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting
  Google Ads Settings. You can also opt
  out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at
  www.aboutads.info/choices.

Analytics

We use website-analytics software to understand how visitors use the Site (for
example, which pages are most popular). This helps us improve the content and
performance of the Site.

How We Use Information

• To create and manage your account and provide member access to family pages.
• To process your one-time membership payment.
• To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site.
• To display advertising that helps support the Site.
• To respond to your inquiries and, where you have asked us to, review genealogy data
  you submit.
• To comply with legal obligations and protect against fraud or abuse.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as needed with:

• Service providers who help us run the Site, such as our hosting
  provider, payment processor, advertising partner (Google), and spam-filtering service.
• Legal and safety recipients when required by law or to protect the
  rights, property, or safety of Morrill Online, our users, or others.

Data Retention

We retain account and membership information for as long as your account is active or
as needed to provide you access. We may retain certain information as required to comply
with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Your Rights and Choices

• You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information
  by contacting us at the address below.
• You can control cookies through your browser settings and opt out of personalized
  advertising using the links in the Advertising section above.
• Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the
  GDPR (EU/UK) or the CCPA (California). We will honor applicable rights upon verified
  request.

Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect
personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us
personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including encrypted
transmission (HTTPS) and encrypted password storage. However, no method of transmission
or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Third-Party Links

The Site may link to other websites (for example, Facebook or genealogy resources).
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites; please review their
policies.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will revise the “Last updated”
date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
