ENGLISH / Ancestris and privacy?
« on: January 06, 2021, 07:25:25 »
Hello!
I'm a genealogist from Germany and always interested in good software.
Today I discovered Ancestris. The program looks very interesting and I would like to try it. Unfortunatelly there is no German version. That may be a reason, why the program seems to be quite unknown in Germany. At least I have the impression, that it is.
However, there is one thing that is stopping me from installing it. I can't find any information anywhere on how the program handles my privacy. Can Ancestrys view the data I open, edit or save in the program? Or will the data only stay on my private hard drive? Where can I find information about the privacy of the program? And is the software code publicly available?
Would be great to hear from you.
Yours,
Michl
