This English version is provided for convenience. In the event of any discrepancy, the Hungarian-language version shall prevail, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Terms and Conditions
Version 1.0. Effective: 8 October 2026
1. Provider
Planned operator: LVI HaAtid Unlimited Kft. Until the company is incorporated, the registered office, company registration number, tax number, court of registration, and representative are not stated, and the provider does not replace them with assumed data.
The contact address will be published in the impressum after incorporation. Until then the service is available for information.
2. Scope and acceptance of the Terms and Conditions
The version of the Terms and Conditions is 1.0, effective from 8 October 2026. The language of the contract is Hungarian.
The Terms and Conditions apply to the use of csaladnev.hu and to later paid access. The text is also available free of charge in printable and downloadable form.
Opening the service serves to let the user read this information. A paid order is formed only when the payment function is available and the user accepts the Terms and Conditions before sending the order. Rights that mandatory law confers on a consumer cannot be excluded.
3. Subject of the service
The service is an aggregator-style historical research and information-search service. It is not an official register, not a civil registry, not an archive, and not an authentic database, and it does not issue official or archival certificates.
The nature of the service, the handling of sources, and the lack of probative force of the results are described in the Legal Notice. That notice is part of the Terms and Conditions insofar as the user must assess historical results accordingly.
4. Free and paid services
The free preview shows at most 3 complete Budapest results. Other matching records remain locked, and their content is not sent to the browser without entitlement. If there is no Budapest preview result but the nationwide search has results, the service indicates the count and does not hand over the locked records.
The planned paid products are not recurring subscriptions: a full result list for one name, 24-hour research access, and 30-day research access. The 24-hour and 30-day access ends when the stated period expires and does not renew.
5. Prices
The final prices planned to apply to consumers when commercial operation begins: Unlock all records for this surname – 1,990 Ft; 24-hour research access – 3,990 Ft; 30-day research access – 9,990 Ft. The prices are in forints and, from the start of commercial operation, mean the final amount payable by the consumer.
Payment is not available at present. A price shown on the site is therefore information about a planned product, not an offer that the provider is already performing.
6. Electronic formation of a contract
When payment becomes available, the contract is formed on the Hungarian-language order interface by the user’s clear act indicating an obligation to pay. The final payment button must clearly refer to the payment obligation.
Before sending the order, the user may correct the name given and the product chosen. The provider displays the technical steps of contracting on the payment interface before the order. An erroneous or interrupted order does not form a contract.
7. Payment
Connecting a payment provider is a later change. In this version a purchase cannot be started, the provider does not charge a fee, and does not confirm a successful payment.
Later payment is a one-time consideration. The provider does not apply a recurring deduction that was not indicated in advance. The provider records a successful payment in its own records; a mark stored in the browser or a URL parameter does not by itself grant access.
8. Performance
Performance of the paid service is opening access to the search results according to the purchased product: the result list of one canonical surname, or research access lasting 24 hours or 30 days.
Access takes place on the service interface. The fee is not for the guaranteed finding of a historical result, not for an official certificate, and not for genealogical proof.
9. Right of withdrawal and termination
The consumer has the right of withdrawal or termination provided by the law on contracts concluded between absent parties. The provider does not treat the digital nature of the service as, by itself, ending the 14-day right of withdrawal.
If the consumer later asks for performance to begin before the withdrawal period expires, a separate, express statement is required. That statement does not waive mandatory consumer rights, and does not exclude rights that the consumer cannot validly waive.
There is no payment in this version, so no withdrawal period starts.
10. Conformity of the digital service
The digital service must conform to the description made known at the time of contracting and to the mandatory quality requirements. Conformity does not mean that the historical database is complete or authentic.
If the service is performed defectively under the mandatory rules, the consumer may enforce the claims provided in the Civil Code and in consumer-rights law. The Terms and Conditions do not limit those claims.
11. User obligations
The user uses the search for its intended purpose, for individual research. The user assesses a result according to the Legal Notice, with independent source checking, if they need it in an official, court, or other significant matter.
The user does not create the appearance that a result is an official certificate or an expert opinion of the provider.
12. Prohibited automated extraction
Ordinary use of the service’s search interface and technical infrastructure for individual research is permitted. Mass extraction, reuse, or copying of the service or a substantial part of it by automated means, or circumvention of access restrictions, is prohibited, unless the provider has given prior written permission or mandatory law allows it.
Ordinary manual research is permitted. The prohibition concerns mass automated extraction and evasion of an access limit.
13. Historical data and liability
The Legal Notice governs the accuracy, completeness, and probative force of historical results. The provider does not guarantee historical completeness, and a result is not official evidence.
The provider does not exclude or limit any liability that the law does not permit to be excluded or limited. It does not limit the rights that mandatory law confers on a consumer.
14. Availability
The provider aims for continuous operation. Maintenance, a network fault, or the outage of an external source may occur. Such an interruption does not, by itself, mean that a historical datum is missing or wrong.
15. Complaints
The provider examines a consumer complaint under the consumer-protection act and the applicable Hungarian law, and gives a reasoned reply within the mandatory time limit. The contact address appears in the impressum once it is available.
A complaint concerns contractual and information questions. A review of a historical record may be requested in the manner described in the Legal Notice, and does not replace obtaining an authentic source.
16. Conciliation body
In a consumer dispute the consumer may turn to the conciliation body competent according to their place of residence or stay, under the rules on conciliation-body procedure. The ministry led by the minister responsible for consumer protection publishes the bodies’ contact details.
The provider complies with the mandatory cooperation rules. This section does not exclude recourse to a court.
17. Intellectual property and the database
Historical facts and the content of the original sources do not become the provider’s exclusive property. Use of the interface and the technical database is governed together by the database provision of the Legal Notice and the extraction section of these Terms and Conditions.
18. Data processing
Hungarian and applicable European data-protection law governs the processing of personal data. The technical carrying out of a search does not replace a privacy notice if the provider publishes one separately.
The provider does not hand locked records to an unauthorised browser. This is a technical access rule, not consent to data processing.
19. Amendment of the Terms and Conditions
The provider may amend the Terms and Conditions for the future. An amendment takes effect when the published new version enters into force. An amendment does not rewrite, to the consumer’s detriment and contrary to mandatory law, the terms of a one-time access that has already been formed and performed.
20. Governing law
Hungarian law governs the contract, with respect for the mandatory consumer-protection rules of the consumer’s habitual residence. Mandatory rules prevail over a differing provision of the Terms and Conditions.
21. Final provisions
If a point of the Terms and Conditions is invalid, the other points remain in force, and the provision of the law takes the place of the invalid point. Questions not regulated in the Terms and Conditions are governed by the Civil Code and the mandatory rules on consumer contracts.
These terms do not create a recurring subscription, and they do not state that payment is already usable.
