Privacy Policy
At Rootsraja we recognize that privacy is very important. We promise to respect your contact preferences and to protect your private information. This Privacy Policy describes the information that is collected, how it is used, and with whom it might be shared. This Privacy Policy applies to all of the services and products offered by rootsraja.in
Please read carefully the Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use before you use our website, our tools, or our services and before conducting any type of transaction with us. By using any of our services, you accept the practices described in this Privacy Policy and you agree to be bound by the Terms of Use.
Data Collection
We do not store your credit card information or other sensitive data on our servers. Rootsraja uses the services of the most secure payment gateway to provide safe and secure payment procedures. Your credit card information is never transmitted via our website since the payment gateway is responsible for collecting, storing, and encrypting your data. All the information that is collected is used for product and service provision, billing, identification and authentication, service improvement, contact, and research.
Rootsraja does not share your email address or other personally identifying information with any third parties, except our service providers, such as credit-card payment processors, performing services on our behalf. These service providers may have access to personal information needed to perform their functions but are not permitted to share or use such information for any other purposes.
Cookies & Tracking Information
When your browser visits our website, a cookie is created on your computer. A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website’s computers and stored on your computer’s hard drive. The cookies are required in order to become a member of our service since they facilitate access to our website and improve the user experience.
We use cookies to record current session information, encrypt users’ login information, provide services, and compile analytics about our users. In addition, we may collect information about your browser type, your default language, the date-time of your visit, and similar information which helps us track users’ movements around our website and understand the trends.
At Rootsraja, we do our best to protect personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. Read more about it here.
Data Protection and Security
We do not sell your Personal Information to anyone for any purpose. We maintain information about you in our business records while you are a customer, or until it is no longer needed for business, tax, or legal purposes. We have implemented encryption or other appropriate security controls to protect personal information when stored by Rootsraja. All the passwords in our web service are hashed by using the SHA-1 cryptographic hash function. Both Rootsraja and our third-party hosting vendors do their best to protect personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
Any personal information or content that you voluntarily disclose online (in reviews and discussion areas, within your public profile page, etc.) becomes publicly available and can be collected and used by others. Your account name (not your email address) is displayed to other users when you send comments or messages through our Blog/Forums and other users can contact you through messages and comments.
Creation of account and order placements deems the use of your email address without further consent for non-marketing or administrative purposes (such as notifying you of major website changes, updates on Terms and Conditions or Privacy Policy, alerting you to messages from other members or for customer service purposes). We use your contact information to send you offers based on your previous orders and your interests.
We use both your personally identifiable information and certain non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous user usage data, cookies, IP addresses, browser type, clickstream data, etc.) to improve the quality and design of the website and to create new features, functionality, and services by storing, tracking and analyzing user preferences and trends. When you post a comment or message, your Rootsraja ID or username that you are posting under is visible to other users. If you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Rootsraja does not rent or sell your personal information.
Rootsraja will not share personal information about you with other people or other companies without your consent except to provide products or services you’ve requested and in the following circumstances: Rootsraja may be required to disclose personally identifiable information under special circumstances, such as to comply with subpoenas, warrants, court orders or legal process or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims. It may be necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities, including without limitation, fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of Terms of Use, or as otherwise permitted or required by law. Rootsraja may share demographic information with business partners, such as “30% of users who regularly use Rootsraja are between 40 and 45″ or similar. No personally identifiable information will ever be used without your permission.
We may release personally identifiable information and/or non-personally identifiable information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with laws or respond to a court order, subpoena, or search warrant.
Rootsraja reserves the right to use the business name, logo, and comments of its Registrants, Members, and Customers in marketing documents, on the Rootsraja website, and in other marketing and promotional activities. At any time, the Registrants, Members, and Customers of the Service can send a written notice to withdraw this authorization.
