Using Family Tree Studio
Family Tree Studio is a browser-based tool for designing family tree artwork and downloading print files. By using it you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the studio.
Your content
The family information and photographs you add remain yours. They are stored on your device, and sent to our download server only to make the files you ask for, as described in the privacy policy.
Please only add photographs and information you have the right to use, and be considerate of the privacy of living relatives when you share what you make.
The artwork you make
You may print, frame, give and share the artwork you create with the studio, and have it printed by any print shop you choose.
The designs, styles and software themselves remain part of Family Tree Studio. The typefaces used, Cormorant Garamond and Inter, are licensed under the SIL Open Font License.
Checking before you print
The studio lays out the information you provide; it does not research or verify family history. Please check names, dates and relationships on the proof before printing.
Printed colours and papers vary between printers and shops. Print a proof at actual size first, especially for large or framed pieces.
Storage and backups
Projects are stored in your browser, not on our servers — the download server does not keep what it receives — so we cannot restore a project that has been removed from your device. Export a project file regularly if a project matters to you.
Free to use, within fair limits
Family Tree Studio is currently free: every design, every style and every download, with no account and no watermark. If that ever changes, it will be announced on this site before it takes effect, and files you have already downloaded remain yours.
Print files are made on our download server, which has finite limits — on the size of a request and of each photo, on image resolution, and on how many files it makes at once and per minute. When it is busy it asks you to try again shortly. Please do not use automated tools to send it large numbers of requests.
Availability and warranty
The studio is provided as it is and as available. We work to keep it accurate and reliable, but to the extent the law allows, we do not promise it will be free of errors or always available, and we are not responsible for losses arising from its use — including lost projects or printing costs.
Changes to these terms
These terms may be updated as the studio changes. The date below the contents list shows when they were last revised.
