Obituaries are protected by copyright. Some funeral homes even place a disclaimer on their web site protecting their form of the notice including the image of the deceased. This is to prevent pirate web sites from making money off the notice by selling sympathy gifts and other services. Genealogy sites like the Briles Information Network are allowed to "index" the obituary by collecting "facts" then author our own notice in a unique format for publication on our site. The BIN was created for information purposes only and has nothing to sell. The BIN has no services to offer, no ads, membership fees, no PayPal or other payment apps...we accept NO outside compensation or gifts. The BIN will only use an image from a death notice if the family authorizes the use or lacks a disclaimer. The BIN WILL NEVER contact the family or funeral home for any reason, to include seeking permission of such information. We care about your privacy. Please contact the BIN to request an obituary to be removed or authorize the BIN to use an image. Remember, all of the information on this site, including obituaries/death notices have a direct relation to the Briles Surname.
