Privacy and your data
Last updated 6 November 2026. This is a personal portfolio site run by Prakash Srivastava. Nothing here is sold, used for ads or shared with anyone else.
What is kept, and why
| What | When | Who can see it | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your name and verified email from Google, Microsoft, Facebook or LinkedIn, and your last 20 sign-in times | When you sign in | Only the site owner, on a private admin page | Until you delete your account |
| Family trees you save: names, gender, dates of birth, photos, notes, and the private mobile and email fields | When you save a tree | You. People you share a tree with see it read-only, with dates of birth, notes, emails and mobiles only as you choose (emails and mobiles are off unless you turn them on) | Until you delete the tree or your account |
| Photos you upload (at most 250 KB each) | When you upload one | You, and people you share a tree showing it with | Until you delete your account; photos no saved tree uses are removed after a day |
| Mind Games results (scores, reaction times, mood and energy answers) | When you choose Save to my account | Only you | Until you delete them or your account |
| Body Explorer profile and display choices: gender, height, weight, body shape, skin tone, clothes, hair, units, and your age group only if you tick its box (never an exact age). Encrypted | When you choose Save to my account | Only you | Until you choose Forget my profile, or delete your account |
| Body Explorer reports: the spots you picked, your answers and notes, the name on the note and a title. Encrypted | Only after you agree to the notice and choose Save this report | Only you | Deleted automatically 3, 6 or 12 months after the last update (you choose), or when you delete them, stop saving reports, or delete your account |
| Visit counts kept by this site: pages opened, when, and an anonymous visitor code made from your IP address and browser with a key that changes daily (the IP address itself isn't kept). If you are signed in, which pages you opened that day | On every page, without cookies | Only the site owner, on a private admin page, to see how the site is used and spot misuse | Per-visitor detail is reduced to daily totals after a few days; totals are kept for 13 months |
| Visit counts (Google Analytics) | Only if you accept analytics cookies. Never on the Family Tree, the games or the Body Explorer | The site owner, as totals | Google's standard retention |
Trees you build without signing in stay in your browser only. Signed-in data is kept privately on Google Cloud. Mind Games are wellness indicators, not medical tests. The Body Explorer saves nothing unless you sign in and choose to save: otherwise the spots you pick, your answers and your note stay in your browser tab, and a share link keeps them after the # sign, which browsers never send to this site. What you do save is encrypted with a key for your account only, is used for nothing else, and is never shared. It is for learning only, not a medical record.
