Living people hidden
Public visitors do not see protected profiles or facts for individuals identified as living.
Privacy
History can be open without exposing the living.
WYDWiki is designed to make historical genealogy discoverable while protecting personal information about living and potentially living individuals.
Potentially living people hidden
Where a death is not known, age and project privacy rules help prevent accidental exposure.
Private material protected
Restricted notes, media and facts remain subject to WYDWiki's access controls.
Member-only editing
Public access is read-only. Editing is limited to authorised members and their permitted projects.
Historical access
Public historical profiles support research, discovery and connection across collections.
Image protection
Watermarking and access rules can be used to discourage unattributed reuse of project media.
Privacy policy
WYDWiki protects the privacy of living and potentially living individuals. Personal information is not sold to advertisers. Public pages focus on historical genealogy and material that project contributors are authorised to share.
Members remain responsible for respecting privacy, copyright and the wishes of living relatives when adding content. Access to particular projects or records may be restricted where appropriate.
Questions about privacy or correction requests can be sent to admin@wydwiki.com.
