We will not disclose any of the personal information you give us and will never, ever, share your email address with any third party.

Your first and last names are required; your middle and maiden names are optional. We collect this data because we want to get to know you.

Your current email address is required and must be in the form of user@example.com. We collect this data to facilitate your request for a mainville.org account. The only email we will send to your current email address is a confirmation email when you request a mainville.org account and, in the event you forget your mainville.org password, a reminder email containing your mainville.org password. The email address you provide here cannot be an address in the mainville.org domain.

You choose the mainville.org member name/email address that you would like. It is required and uniquely identifies you on the mainville.org web site. It must start with a letter or number and can contain only letters, numbers, periods, dashes, and underscores. We will not share your member name/email address with any third parties. We may, from time-to-time, send an email to your mainville.org email address to notify you of changes in your service.

You choose your mainville.org password. This is to ensure that only you have access to your mainville.org account and email. You should not share your password with anyone. We will never ask you for your password. Your password is required and you must type it in twice. It must start with a letter or number, cannot contain single quotes ('), double quotes ("), or colons (:), and cannot be the same as your member name.

Your geographic location is optional. We use this data for summary statistical purposes only (e.g., to determine the total number of members from a specific geographic area.)

Your connection to the Mainville family is optional, but it would be nice to know 'how' you are a Mainville.

Your IP address is recorded when you request a mainville.org account. It will be used only if we have to investigate violations of the site spam policy or the acceptable use policy.
