How a family tree is born
After establishing the terms of work with the client during preliminary and subsequent contacts, a method follows that I use to carry out my work as a genealogist.
Anyone has the right to the protection of personal data concerning him.
The quote is reported in article 1 of the Italian law 196/2003 the so-called "legge sulla privacy".
Many people have asked me what happens to the data I collect during my research; it being understood that the formal documents remain where they are, or in the various archives that I consult, the work is based on the research and subsequent copying of said documents (photocopy or photographic) and these are the only data that remain in my possession until the end of the research and subsequent cataloging.
At the end of the work, these documents are destroyed or delivered at the request of the customer, or as in the case of the works cited below, at the request of the published customer, nothing remains in my hands to safeguard your privacy and that of others.
At the beginning of each of my work I have the client sign a release in which I formally request access to the consultation for the client to the archives or a proxy in plain paper and the way that I will have to use to process the data in my possession. These acts form an integral part of the contract stipulated at the time of the assignment by the client.
