A private family tree, by default
Family history is personal. Kinleaf keeps every tree private from the start, gives you exact control over any sharing, and lets you export or delete your data whenever you want.
Your privacy, step by step
Create your tree
Sign up and your first tree is private from the moment you create it. Nothing is visible to anyone else until you decide it should be.
Choose exactly what to share
Keep the whole tree to yourself, or share a private link with the specific relatives you pick. Every share is yours to change or revoke at any time.
Stay in control
Hide living relatives on any public view, export a full copy for safekeeping, or delete your account and its data from one place.
Written down, not just promised
The specifics live in our privacy policy, in plain language: what we collect, where it lives, and the choices you control.
How Kinleaf protects your tree
Private by default
Every tree is private until you choose to share it. Public sharing is never automatic.
Living people hidden
On public shares, living people can be hidden so only those you allow are shown.
Not sold, not trained on
Kinleaf does not sell your data or use your family records to train models.
Export or delete anytime
Take a full export whenever you want, or delete your account and its data.
Common questions
01Is my family tree private?
Yes. Every tree is private by default. You decide if and how to share it.
02How do I make a family tree private?
You do not need to change any setting. In Kinleaf every tree starts private, so it stays visible only to you until you choose to share a link. There is no public directory your relatives can turn up in.
03Who can see my tree if I never share it?
Only you. An unshared tree is not public, not searchable, and not listed anywhere. It is tied to your account, and no one else can open it.
04Can I hide living relatives?
Yes. Public shares can hide living people, so only those you allow are shown.
05Do you sell my data?
No. Kinleaf does not sell your data and does not run ads.
06Can I delete my tree and data later?
Yes. You can export a full copy first, then delete your tree, or your whole account and its data, whenever you want.
