Privacy Policy

This policy describes how MoorOfUS.org handles information in the current site.

Information users provide voluntarily

Users may voluntarily provide information by emailing MoorOfUS. That information can include a name, email address, page URL, correction request, source suggestion, permission question, or general editorial message. MoorOfUS uses that information to respond and to maintain editorial records.

Server logs

The hosting environment may keep standard server logs. Logs can include IP address, browser type, requested URL, referring URL, date, time, and error information. These logs are used for security, reliability, debugging, and site operations.

Cookies

MoorOfUS may use cookies or local browser storage for ordinary site operation, security, analytics, or administrative access. The public site should not require a reader to create an account to read public records.

Analytics

The WordPress runtime includes Google Analytics 4 measurement configured with IP anonymization. Analytics are used to understand aggregate page usage and site reliability. MoorOfUS does not use analytics to publish private lineage, family, or genetic information.

Advertising and Google AdSense

MoorOfUS may use Google AdSense or third-party advertising if advertising is enabled. Public ad placement is disabled until approval and implementation review. If ads are enabled, advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to show or measure ads under their own policies. MoorOfUS will update this policy before material changes to active advertising practices.

Contact

Privacy questions can be sent to editorial@moorofus.org.

Updates to this policy

This policy may be updated when the site’s operations, analytics, advertising, or contact practices materially change.
