Last updated: September 12, 2026

ROOTT respects your privacy. This policy explains what information may be collected through roott.me, how it is used and the choices available to you.

Information we collect

Contact submissions. If you contact ROOTT, we may receive your name, email address, message and the consent choice submitted with the form.

Newsletter subscriptions. If you subscribe, we collect your email address and information needed to manage the subscription.

Technical information. The website and its service providers may process information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, referring page and activity required for security, operation and audience measurement.

How we use information

  • To respond to enquiries, tips and story submissions.
  • To deliver newsletters requested by subscribers.
  • To operate, secure and improve the website.
  • To understand how the website is used.
  • To comply with applicable legal obligations and protect legitimate rights.

Cookies and similar technologies

ROOTT and its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies for essential site functions, security, embedded content and audience measurement. Your browser settings may allow you to block or delete cookies, although some site features may then work differently.

Service providers and embedded content

ROOTT uses third-party services to host and operate the website, manage forms and newsletters, measure site use and display embedded content. These may include Hostinger, WordPress-related services, Google services and YouTube. When you interact with an embedded service, that provider may process information under its own privacy policy.

ROOTT does not sell personal information. Information may be shared with service providers only as needed to perform services for ROOTT, or where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect rights, safety and security.

Retention and security

Information is retained only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to enquiries, maintaining subscription records, securing the website and meeting legal obligations. ROOTT uses reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure.

Your choices and rights

You may unsubscribe from newsletters using the method provided in a message or contact ROOTT to request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information, subject to applicable law and legitimate record-keeping requirements. You may also withdraw consent for future processing where consent is the basis used.

Children’s privacy

The website is intended for a general audience and is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children.

External links

ROOTT may link to websites operated by others. ROOTT is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external websites.
