Privacy Policy

KarnesTX.com recognizes the confidentiality of information that may be disclosed and we are committed to protecting your privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this Website.

Do you ask for personal information?
No. All queries are run through Ancestry.com. Please see their privacy policy for more information about their terms.

How do you use my personal information?
The only information that we use is public information that is posted in an online newspaper or vital statistics. We do not publish private information without the explicit permission of the owner.

Will you disclose any of my personal information to third parties?
No. The only information that can be collected on this site is publicly available records either from a book, cemetery or online resource. We are not held responsible for any public information taken from this site.

Can I have my public information removed from your vital statistics?
Yes. It is the policy of TXGenWeb to allow the records of a specific person to be removed from any documents on our site. However, please be aware that removing information from this site is very minor considering other places your information is public and cannot be removed. Public Information means that the state has the right to publish certain information about you without your permission or without recourse. Removing it from KarnesTX.com is not going to help remove it from anywhere else and is a small part of a much larger, unsolvable problem for you.
