If that's really how their service worked, wouldn't they put THAT into their privacy policy, instead of just saying, "Hey, we're going to store your information, and give it to people if they ask for it." Oh, and btw, it's pretty common in divorce for information to be subpoena'd. So THANKS for storing all that info Our Family Wizard...

Because we work with many highly conflictual parents, it is necessary to show the records to be authentic. We have had several cases already in which a parent was able to guess the other parent's account information, because the parent setup an easily guessable username and password, especially since they were once married. The IP tracking empowered us to show that records in question were in fact created falsely by the other parent. We do not provide any information to any parties without first notifying all parties involved that a request has been made. We don't provide any information to anyone other than the account holder without a subpoena. In response to the question about what kind of records we provide, we only provide the information necessary to remove conflict. We don't make up any arbitrary statistics about usage. If a parent is over using the site to make the other parent look bad, it will be very obvious that this is the true intention. Lastly, we don't have any outside advertising offered through the site, other than in our Resources section. There are no banners, adwords or anything else. Our main goal is to protect children and provide a forum for communication and information sharing in an otherwise strenuous situation. Divorce is not easy, but having tools to help manage the relationship between parents can make it more straightforward. IP addresses are stored mostly for the users protection.
