As Genealogy Assistant continues to grow we will be supporting an expanding list of family history websites!
In a future update, your browser may ask you to review the pages which Genealogy Assistant can read. This is part of an industry-wide initiative by browser creators to enhance transparency, which we fully support. It also gives us the opportunity to clearly reaffirm our stance on user privacy, particularly important in our community.
Genealogy Assistant is not a cloud-based or web-based application. Each feature operates entirely on your own computer. Apart from your customized user settings, such as enabling or disabling features, Genealogy Assistant does not store any information whatsoever. The extension does not track user data in any way.
The permissions requested allow Genealogy Assistant to interact with specific websites used in family history research. Although the extension can read certain data from these predefined sites, all processing occurs exclusively within the privacy of your own device and is never recorded.
Genealogy Assistant is designed to respect your privacy from the ground up, ensuring you can get the most out of online family history platforms without sacrificing the privacy of yourself or your matches.

Thank you so much for your time and happy tree building!
