This LULU SOFTWARE Privacy Policy
may occasionally change. Any Policy changes will be posted on www.lulusoftware.com (together with sites published
by LULU SOFTWARE, the "Site").
Each version of this policy will be denoted at the top of this page by its effective
date.
Privacy Policy
We, at LULU SOFTWARE, respect
your right to privacy and we are committed to protecting it. This statement discloses
the information that we gather and track, how we use the information, and with whom
we share this same information.
Personal Information
You can visit the Site without indicating who you are, and without revealing any
personal information about yourself. If you choose to buy from the Site, we ask
you to provide basic information such as your First Name, Last Name and e¬mail address.
This will be used to set up your private account, your invoice, and to send your
purchase confirmation. Your personal information will NEVER BE DISCLOSED OR SHARED
WITH ANY THIRD PARTY without your explicit consent. If you do not wish to receive
marketing communications from us or participate in our customization programs, simply
indicate your preference once you sign onto this Site.
Transaction information such as credit card details, billing addresses and/or phone
numbers are required to purchase and activate your membership or obtain a software
license to our software; we will share that information with third parties to process
any payment that you may make to us. If you provide us with personal information
or credit information about somebody else, such as a family member, friend or associate,
we will assume that you have their permission to do so.
Information from Sources Other than Yourself
We may, on occasion, use data on deceased individuals in collaboration with other
entities to facilitate in genealogical research and collaboration between parties,
and allowing all users of the Site the opportunity to expand their own genealogical
research. We will not charge any users to use this information. We will not disclose
any confidential information concerning yourself or our connection to these deceased
individuals; instead, we will associate your LULU
SOFTWARE login ID with such information.

are 13 years old but not yet 18, or of the age of majority in the jurisdiction where
