==Rights of Privacy==
Rights of privacy laws limit access to records recent enough to contain information about living persons.  You can access any of the following records:
*births that happened over 100 years ago
*deaths that happened over 30 years ago

<br>
For records created since the cut-off dates, only these people have access to a record:
*the person named on the birth, marriage or change of name record
*an immediate family member named on the death certificate, such as a spouse, parent or child
*a parent, grandparent or guardian of a child over 18 years old who wishes to apply for a birth certificate and who has given written permission.
