Have just noticed that everytime you contact people if you dont untick the box at the bottom ,people can automaticly see your tree. Have been intouch with loads of people unfortunaly not many reply as we all now ,but it means they can see my tree. What a stupid way surely it should be tick the box if you want them to see your tree. Still my fault for not reading it .If i take them out of my contact box do you think that would work.???? Val

It does NOT mean they can see your tree, you have to click on the "Allow" to enable them to view. Poor terminology in the description, that's all. In other words, if it says "Allow" they can't see your tree, if it says "Remove" they can.
